"the difference in mind between man and higher animals is one of degree and not of kind." Charles Darwin 1871.

To varying degrees, society has accepted that they (animals) are us, and we are them. Still, this realization has had little impact on how society has treated animals. One third of Americans beleive animals deserved the same rights a humans, but 9 out of 10 of those Americans eat animals every day.

The orange face far too many animal activists focus on will be gone soon enough, why not focus on posts like this one. Why not focus on how we can make sure that 150 years from how things will be different for animals than they are today. It's not going to happen on its own.
