Horses are NOT for consumption. They have been a part of our evolution
for THOUSANDS of years, carrying us on horseback, pulling our carriages
and plows for crops. We would not be where we are as a civilization
without them - that alone should be enough cause for us to respect them
enough not to eat them. Honor our history. Now, horses are a part of
another form of transportation. They are our partners in personal and
leadership development, they take us to the depths of our psyche and
gracefully show us how to be better humans. Read the work of Dr. Allan
Hamilton, a neurosurgeon who eloquently describes the science between
the horse and human interaction, and how merely being around them - in
their presence increases our brain function. They are also used in
therapy for the mentally and physically handicapped. Have you ever seen
an autistic child get on the back of a horse? Their faces light up with
joy and their expression defines the very connection they have with
that sentient being at that moment. People suffering from muscular
dystrophy go through physical therapy on the back of the horse, because
of the way they move simulates the way our hips move when we walk. The
millions of reasons why this law should be overturned are details, a
story. The true reason is in your heart. Could you really eat a horse?
