upinspire.com. I was completely shocked when I saw how these cows reacted to being freed. It really makes me think twice about eating animals. They're smart animals and have feelings. They're literally jumping for joy!
This is a very good film. All animals play and enjoy life.http://www.upinspire.com/inspire/408/seriously-i-never-knew-cows-c

Simultaneously, a banner displaying a Mockingjay from the Hunger Games series was unfurled from the second story, reading: “The Odds are Never in Our Favor.”

What
I always felt made Lucas 4:18 different was that they were 'real,' they didn't use words like 'Jesus,' 'God,' 'Prayer,' 'Bible...' like they
were some sort of magic chant, fetish.... They all seemed to understand
that God = Loving, Christ = Loving, Gospel = Loving, Jesus = Loving... Loving = God; Loving = Church... and the whole deal is we are to not USE Jesus like some magic
wand, but we are to BE CHRIST-LIKE, LIKE JESUS... LOVING. "Love as I
have Loved...." "They will know you by how you Love." I see all that
in their new picture here. Loving

"You're trapped in a cage with six to eight hens, each given
less than a square foot of space to roost and sleep in. The cages rise
five high and run thousands long in a warehouse without windows or
skylights. You see and smell nothing from the moment of your birth but
the shit coming down through the open slats of the battery cages above
you. It coats your feathers and becomes a second skin; by the time
you're plucked from your cage for slaughter, your bones and wings
breaking in the grasp of harried workers, you look less like a hen than
an oil-spill duck, blackened by years of droppings."
