In my opinion, the single most telling piece of evidence that shows how poorly we're manifesting our call to care for animals is the recent creation of factory farms. Over the last century we have, to a large degree, reduced farm animals to commercialized commodities whose only value is found in how efficiently we can produce and slaughter them for profit. Consequently, more than 26 billion animals each year are forced to live in miserable, overcrowded warehouses, where there is absolutely nothing natural about their existence and where they are subjected to barbaric, painful, industrial procedures.
This is a far cry from what God meant when he told us to exercise "dominion." (Pastor Greg Boyd.)

Jesus was still speaking to the people when behold, His mother and brothers stood outside, seeking to speak to Him.
Someone said to Him, Listen! Your mother and your brothers are standing outside, seeking to speak to you.
But He (Jesus) replied to the man who told Him, Who is My mother, and who are My brothers ?
And stretching out His hand toward [not only the twelve disciples, but all] His adherents, He said, Here are My mother and My brothers.
For whoever does the will of My Father in heaven is My brother and sister and mother !
~ Jesus, according to the disciple Matthew.

..... the disciples came to Him (Jesus) and said, Why do you speak to them in parables ?
And He replied to them, To you it has been given to know the secrets and mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it has not been given. For whoever has spiritual knowledge, to him will be more given and he will be furnished richly so that he will have abundance; but from him who has not, even what he has will be taken away.
This is the reason I speak to them in parables: because having the power of seeing, they do not see; and having the power of hearing, they do not hear, nor do they grasp and understand.
In them indeed is the process of fulfillment of the prophecy of Isaiah, which says: You shall indeed hear and hear but never grasp and understand; and you shall indeed look and look but never see and perceive.
...this nation's heart has grown gross--fat and dull, and their ears heavy and difficult of hearing, and their eyes they have tightly closed, lest they see and perceive with their eyes, and hear and comprehend the sense with their ears, and grasp and understand with their heart, and turn and I should heal them. [Isa. 6: 9,10.]
But happy, fortunate and to be envied! are your eyes because they do see, and your ears because they do hear. Truly I tell you, many prophets and righteous men [men who were upright and in right standing with God] yearned to see what you see, and did not see it, and to hear what you hear, and did not hear it.
~ Jesus' words, according to His disciple Matthew.

I am 'reposting' this (for and in case there are those who would like to see it again) from the title page of our website on the day we especially remembered and paid tribute to Curt. I don't know who made this. It is well done, for sure.

A parable of Jesus' : ...The kingdom of heaven is like a man who sowed good seed in his field. But while he was sleeping, his enemy came and sowed also darnel (weeds resembling wheat) among the wheat, and went on his way.
So when the plants sprouted and formed grain, the darnel (weeds) appeared also.
And the servants of the owner came to him and said, Sir, did you not sow good seeds in your field ? Then how does it have darnel shoots in it ?
He replied to them, An enemy has done this. The servants said to him, Then do you want us to go and weed them out ?
But he said, No, lest in gathering the wild wheat weeds resembling wheat, you root up the [true] wheat along with it.
Let them grow together until the harvest; and at harvest time I will say to the reapers, Gather the darnel first and bind it in bundles to be burned, but gather the wheat into my granary.
~ according to the disciple, Matthew, from his ch. 13.

.....Then He (Jesus) left the throngs and went into the house. And his disciples came to Him saying, Explain to us the parable of the darnel in the field.
He answered, He who sows the good seed is the Son of Man. The field is the world, and the good seed means the children of the kingdom; the darnel (weeds resembling wheat) is the children of the evil one (the devil/satan, with his fellow rebel angels), And the enemy who sowed it is the devil. The harvest is the close and consummation of the age, and the reapers are angels.
Just as the darnel is gathered and burned, so it will be at the close of the age. The Son of Man (Jesus) will send forth His angels, and they will gather out of His kingdom all causes of offense [persons by whom others are drawn into error or sin] and who do iniquity and act wickedly,
And will cast them into the furnace of fire; there will weeping and wailing and gnashing of teeth.
Then will the righteous (those who are upright and in right standing with God) shine forth like the sun in the kingdom of their Father.
Let him who has ears [to hear] be listening, and let him consider and perceive and understand by hearing.
~ Jesus, according to His disciple Matthew.
