Destruction of innocence
All four of the possible paths that a calf born on a dairy may take are paths of abuse and early death.
Since cows in the wild easily live twenty to thirty years, the industry, in killing calves, steers, and dairy cows at the ages of several months to several years, is really killing infants and children.
In this it is the same as the industries that confine and kill lambs, pigs, chickens, turkeys, and fish: all are pushed to grow abnormally quickly and are slaughtered young.
Similarly, in the wars we inflict upon each other, children suffer and die the most, and more than ever they are even forced to do the killing.
The animal food culture promotes domination and exploitation of the female and the feminine, which are full of life-giving and nurturing powers, and of infants and children, who are full of the powers of innocence and growth.
May all beings be free and at peace, Will
