Have y'all seen that commercial where they're asking for money for the animals and they have the soft, tear-jerking music playing in the background and the commercial is played out just like the "feed the children" commercials? I about croak everytime I see it!

PETA tried to run an ad comparing the abuse of animals to the atrocity that occurred on the greyhound bus in Canada!!!!
Quote from the article:
"...However, city editor Tara Seel said Thursday the newspaper had no intention of running the ad, which uses imagery of a victim's throat being cut, in reference to the slaughter of animals on factory farms.
"His struggles and cries are ignored ... the man with the knife shows no emotion ... the victim is slaughtered and his head cut off ... his flesh is eaten," reads the ad posted on the PETA site.
"If this ad leaves a bad taste in your mouth, please give a thought to what sensitive animals think and feel when they come to the end of their frightening journey and see, hear and smell the slaughterhouse," it says...."
I think it is for this reason hardly anyone takes PETA seriously. They are shooting their own cause in the foot.
They have doing this for years and I always keep wondering if they realize how they are actually hurting their cause. The only people that would approve are those already on their side. So they are preaching to the choir and spending a lot of money to do so

Apostolic is defined on AFF as:
There is One God. This one God reveals Himself distinctly as Father, Son and Holy Ghost.

Every sinner must repent of their sins.
That Jesus name baptism is the only biblical mode of water baptism.
That the Holy Ghost is for today and is received by faith with the initial evidence of speaking in tongues.
The saint will go on to strive to live a holy life, pleasing to God.

The one with Sarah McLachlan? (sp?) Playing "In the Arms of an Angel" (whatever that song is called)?
Sarah changes the channel every time it comes on. LOL!!!! She can't stand it! Hilarious that's its too over the top even for a 10-year-old!
