How can we write about cats today when 132 children have been slaughtered?

Sorry this is not about cats. I just don’t feel like it after hearing the news. How can we think of cat welfare in Pakistan when the Taliban shoot 132 children at a school? How can we expect the welfare of feral cats in Islamabad or indeed domestic gas in households in Pakistan to be improved, to be even thought about or considered when we have such a dark, dark day in the history of humanity as has happened today?

Do we know why the Taliban did this? Personally, I have lost track of what their mission and the meaning of their existence is. Are they Islamic extremists willing to turn the clock back to mediaeval times? And how did they decide that shooting 132 children at school would help to achieve their goal? No goal, absolutely no objective of any sort can justify this depraved crime.

The welfare of domestic and feral cats in Pakistan can never be addressed properly until these sorts of crimes cease, until people respect people. How can we expect people to respect the domestic cat if they can’t even respect other people and their views and opinions?

For my part, it almost seems pointless to discuss and write about the domestic, feral and stray cat on this website when such dark and depraved human behaviour is thrust into our faces on television.

In addition to the mass slaughter of innocent children for no apparent or justifiable reason in Pakistan, we have a background in this country, the UK, of paedophilia the like of which we never truly comprehended. It appears to be everywhere and it appears to indicate that humankind is essentially a very damaged creature capable of depraved behaviour which is not far from the surface at all times. I am referring to the long series of child abuse crimes by the establishment which are now belatedly coming to light.

And we are coming up to Christmas, a time of celebration and goodwill to all men. And all that people are thinking about is how many TVs they can buy on Black Friday! Christmas has been debased to the point where it is simply a consumer nightmare.

It’s a black, black day in the history of humanity when 132 children are slaughtered for some stupid, misguided, crackpot idea that leads to nowhere and achieves nothing other than misery for us all and particularly the families of the children so mercilessly shot down.

  1. Yes Agreed The Islamic faith is dying day by day and it is shrinking only to the ORTHODOX Islam believers as I am 😉

  2. What the Islamic extremists are doing is behaving like Christian crusaders of 900 years ago. They have turned the clock back hundreds of years. They are barbaric bastards. They are ignorant and ill-educated. The world moved on but these people are living in the past.

  3. They have nothing to do with Islam or Islamic faith, but they are injected as a VIRUS INJECTION.

    The trouble is that the world sees them as Islamic extremists wishing to impose Islam on the world and therefore it is hugely damaging to the Islamic Faith.

    The Islamic Faith is dying in my view because of more than a decade of extreme violence attached to it. This is the opposite to the desired goal.

    It is getting worse. It has to stop but it is unstoppable. It is madness and it is hurting the world on so many levels.

  4. Thanks DW for being so positive. You’re right, it is better to remain positive. I have dread feeling at the moment that we (meaning humanity) is on a bad road to God knows where.

  5. I am with you on that. We need a good revolution. It all feels wrong to me and I wonder something big is going to happen. There appears to be a convergence of world events: mass terrorism, religious intolerance, fragile economy, printing money, environmental destruction, East versus West, Russia, Middle East mess, and more.

  6. No my brother, I will say, So called mUslims are killing ignorant human beings 😉

    and so hindus are doing who in my eyes are so called hIndus

    So christians are doing who are not actually followers of my JESUS (Alaihi salam may peace and greatness be with him)

    So are so called JEWS doing, killing unarmed human being upon their ignorance or belief.

    When are we going to understand and tolerate each other being children of ADAM and EVE or Okay so let us be atleast children of GOD 😉

    If we are united, we can demolish TALIBAN forces and forces like them but if we just start our BLAME GAME, every things goes.

    God bless you brother, I am preparing for the charity and prayers in local church for xmas <3
