Dear Readers,
Hindus do animal sacrifice!

How did I not know about that? I'm 26! I thought Budhism and Hinduism and all those Eastern philosophies/religions that nobody really is but everybody really wants to get into someday
http://stuffwhitepeoplelike.com/2008/01/18/2-religions-that-their-parents-dont-belong-to/ were supposed to be really peaceful and in tune with the natural world and animal friendly.
I'm not mad at Hindus for doing animal sacrifice, by the way. I think it's kind of cool. But I'm concerned that nobody knows that Hinduism endorses animal sacrifice, and lots of it. Or at least when I would have conversations with college students about religion, they would always talk vaguely about how great Eastern spirituality was, and they would always hint that Christianity was lame.
I wonder if you wonder if I have some kind of hatred toward animals.
Um... I pushed a cat off of a second story balcany one time. I felt bad afterwards. The worst part about it is that I was a missionary at the time.
It was on impulse. (I was "in the moment" as Adam Lambert said of his bromantical kiss.) Let's see what I remember... Another missionary and I were walking up some stairs... I think there was a little bit of snow on the ground, but not very much. It was cold, I remember. Very very cold. And there was this cat standing on a railing, and I just nudged him off. On purpose. I watched him fall all the way down to the sidewalk. He smacked it and meowed in pain, and then he got up and limped away. That was the last I ever saw of him.
And maybe a neighbor saw me push the cat. I don't know.
So there's probably someone in Morgantown, West Virginia right now yelling, "No way am I joining the LDS church- they're the Church of the Cat-Pushers!"
Say Lah Vee.
But animal sacrifice is a lot cooler than what I did, because the Hindus are hurting animals for God, and what I was doing was... I don't know why I did it.
Sincerely,
Telemoonfa

Kekeke. Its good to hate animals.
I did not know that hindus did animal sacrifice. and I think that's cool.
I think animal sacrifice is cool.
I like the book of Leviticus because it explains in great detail how to sacrifice an animal.
Okay I'm going to be a little sacreligious here.
Christians do Son of God Sacrifice.
the only difference is Jesus died once. instead of multiple animals.
If there was no great and last Sacrifice, Christianity wouldn't exist. And the world wouldn't exist either.
I like Hindus, I should learn about the hindus.
