It does this not because it is evil, but so that we can, in addition to realizing our dreams, master the lessons weโve learned as weโve moved toward that dream.

John CarpenterJust as the commandment 'Thou shalt not kill' sets a clear limit in order to safeguard the value of human life, today we also have to say 'thou shalt not' to an economy of exclusion and inequality.

Pope FrancisI believe that the place where an animal dies is a sacred one. There is a need to bring ritual into the conventional slaughter plants and use as a means to shape people's behavior.

In addition to developing better designs and making equipment to insure the humane treatments of all animals, that would be my contribution.
