A Mary T. Hoffman Commentary from All-Creatures.org

 

"Joyful Curmudgeon" An oxymoron?
No! I see all the beauty of God's creation and I'm joyful.  At the same time, I see all the suffering and corruption going on in the world, and feel called to help expose and end it so that we may have true peace and compassion.

Thought for Today – 28 July 2008
By Mary T. Hoffman

"It seems to me of great importance to teach children respect for life. Towards this end, experiments on living animals in classrooms should be stopped. To encourage cruelty in the name of science can only destroy the finer emotions of affection and sympathy, and breed an unfeeling callousness in the young towards suffering in all living creatures." – Eleanor Roosevelt, former First Lady of the United States of America

One of the reasons we support Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine (PCRM) is because they work for compassionate and effective medical practice, research, and health promotion. Visit www.pcrm.org to find out more.
