If harsher laws are put in place, less will dare to break them.

I'm always pushing for human responsibility. Given that chimpanzees and many other animals are sentient and sapient, then we should treat them with respect.

I love to write - it is a great source of reflection, especially as I continue to meet many new inspiring people.

...it honestly didn't matter how we humans got to be the way we are, whether evolution or special creation was responsible. What mattered and mattered desperately was our future development. Were we going to go on destroying God's creation, fighting each other, hurting the other creatures of the His planet?

It's the bond between mother and child, which is really for us and for chimps and other primates, the root of all the expressions of social behavior.

Having respect for animals makes us better humans.

I think the most important thing to do is to be willing to listen, willing to care, and willing to admit mistakes and change your ways for the better!
