I think that your attitude is exactly what puts a person's body into a state

of ill health. If we can't have some compassion for other beings who are

abused and suffering from excruiating pain and being treated in a vicious manner

than we deserve nothing at all in terms of anything good.

When I read this I just broke down and cried...partly for the cruelty with

which humans treat this planet and the other creatures that share it with us and

partly out of shame for my species.

I posted something off topic because I was so moved my this infomation and I

hoped that some list members with compassion in their hearts might take a

moment to reach out to help these lobsters...and they are not bugs!

I will not mention this again.

Hi ,

you are absolut right. If people are treating other creatures in such a

horrible, heartless and brainless cruelty like these lobsters and we are not

interested (or making jokes about it) than we have really our cancer deserved. A

typical example of cause and effect.

Pelcka,

The way I see it is that humans have abused this planet, not thinking about

anything but the moment and themselves. Now we have a big mess where there is

a cancer plague. We know that the environment plays a huge role in cancer.

Yet we continue to turn blind eyes to the problem. It has to do with respect

for everything on this planet. Until we experience that, we are not connected

spiritually to the universe or to our illnesses. Everything is one...we are

not apart from anything we do or see or hear....or what our fathers and their

fathers have done to create our current situation. What do lobsters have to do

with cancer? This conversation is a start!!!!!!!
