Not saying it never happened in the past but only in the rarest of cultures but, certainly not TODAY.
I'm talking around 2 BILLION people on earth CURRENTLY eat dog.

However.., I do find it rather amusing that you would compare eating dogs to eating maggots and old lunchmeat.


Where do you get the number 2 billion from?

God Summoned A Beast

God summoned the beast from the field and He said
"Behold, man is created in my image. Therefore adore him.
You shall protect him in the wilderness,
shepherd his flocks, watch over his children,
accompany him wherever he may go...
even into civilization.
You shall be his companion, his ally, his s***e."

"To do these things," God said, "I endow you with the
instincts uncommon to other beasts:
Faithfulness, Devotion and Understanding
surpassing those of man himself.
Lest it impair your courage,
you shall never foresee your death.
Lest it impair your loyalty,
you shall be blind to the faults of man.
Lest it impair your understanding,
you are denied the power of words.
Speak to your master only with your mind
and through your honest eyes."

"Walk by his side; sleep in his doorway;
ward off his enemies; carry his burden;
share his afflictions; love and comfort him.
And in return for this,
Man will fulfill your needs and wants...
which shall be only food, shelter and affection."

"So be silent and be a friend to man.
Guide him through the perils along the way
to this land I have promised him.
This shall be your destiny and your immortality."

So spoke the Lord.
And the dog heard, and was content.
Those are great. Reminds me of this which I've po... (show quote)


That is something that I have read before but it always makes me smile. Not only to I love having dogs around, but they are the better half of our work with abused boys. Without the dogs, it would be much more difficult to help the kids heal.

Hillary and her ilk eat aborted babies, that’s why dementiacrats are so fond of planned parenthood.
