Animal Humanity Emotion

More From Thomas Harris

I believe that the best way to create good living conditions for any animal, whether it's a captive animal living in a zoo, a farm animal or a pet, is to base animal welfare programs on the core emotion systems in the brain. my theory is that the environment animals live in should activate their positive emotions as much as possible, and not activate their negative emotions any more than necessary. if we get the animal's emotions rights, we will have fewer problem behaviors... all animals and people have the same core emotion systems in the brain.
Zoos Believe Animal
Cruelty, very far from being a vice, is the first sentiment nature injects in us all. the infant breaks his toy, bites his nurse's breast, strangles his canary long before he is able to reason; cruelty is stamped in animals, in whom, as i think i have said, nature's laws are more emphatically to be read than in ourselves; cruelty exists amongst savages, so much nearer to nature than civilized men are; absurd then to maintain cruelty is a consequence of depravity. . . . cruelty is simply the energy in a man civilization has not yet altogether corrupted: therefore it is a virtue, not a vice.
Men Thinking Animal
And people who believe in god think god has put human beings on earth because they think human beings are the best animal, but human beings are just an animal and they will evolve into another animal, and that animal will be cleverer and it will put human beings into a zoo, like we put chimpanzees and gorillas into a zoo. or human beings will all catch a disease and die out or they will make too much pollution and kill themselves, and then there will only be insects in the world and they will be the best animal.
Zoos Believe Animal
There are only two emotions: love and fear. all positive emotions come from love, all negative emotions from fear. from love flows happiness, contentment, peace, and joy. from fear comes anger, hate, anxiety and guilt. it's true that there are only two primary emotions, love and fear. but it's more accurate to say that there is only love or fear, for we cannot feel these two emotions together, at exactly the same time. they're opposites. if we're in fear, we are not in a place of love. when we're in a place of love, we cannot be in a place of fear. copyright: elisabeth kubler-ross family limited partnership.
Fear Hate Opposites
I fear animals regard man as a creature of their own kind which has in a highly dangerous fashion lost its healthy animal reason - as the mad animal, as the laughing animal, as the weeping animal, as the unhappy animal.
Fashion Animal Men
The seven commandments: whatever goes upon two legs is an enemy. whatever goes upon four legs, or has wings, is a friend. no animal shall wear clothes. no animal shall sleep in a bed. no animal shall drink alcohol. no animal shall kill any other animal. all animals are equal.
