Western religion alone is to blame for the cruelty to animals

Why do the noblest animals suffer so much at the hands of men? I need not enlarge or try to explain this question. Cities are torture places for the animals who can be turned to any account for use or amusement by man! And these are always the most noble.

Why should a harmless creature be burnt alive, or vivisected?

Suffering is the cause of knowledge, so that the incarnating entity gains experience, although the organism is tortured to death.

In China frogs are under the protection of law.

We award the palm of superiority to the Chinese over the English legal documents, for the mellifluous, kindly, and fatherly appeal of the philobatrachian Chinese is far superior to dry, commaless, and incomprehensible legal twaddle of the British lawyer.
