I was hoping to say that I have blogged every day for three years as of today, but sadly, and very frustratingly, the past couple of days I have been otherwise occupied. I'm in the position of having to build a website for a child welfare organization. Remember that this isn't a blog, but might include one. From scratch.

Yesterday's lessons learned were primarily about blogging. And people who say they want us to stop using animals, yet whose tactics appear to be in the service of the welfare of animals, can be called "new welfarists." But, probably because I was blogging daily and there wasn't great fodder daily, I expanded into other areas.

I don't believe they are working for human welfare. I posted on this blog about quitting because of the New Iberia scandal in Louisiana in which the Humane Society found primates being abused.

I've been blogging here less partly because I've been blogging at Animal Rights & AntiOppression (check out my latest post " On Corporate Personhood and Animal Rights " and the better-than-the-post comments) but also because I've been feeling like a broken record and I don't want to bore anyone. Where do people get that idea?

Both animal rights groups and animal welfare groups use "compassion" frequently. What I do know is that I feel an urgency for the causes I care about that blogging, baking, giving money and doing TNR work simply doesn't satisfy. Tags: Activism Ethics Language. Why all the quotation marks? Not that I'm giving you a deadline.

Jentsch talks about the cost ("it's hard to put a price tag on") of protecting those like him, so we definitely know that the tactics of those who seek to defend animals are working on one level (economic harm, though once removed at least in this situation). says a commenter on the journalist's blog). Guess what the answer is?

I suspect that many readers of this blog are Christians but not vegetarians. On the traditional position, justification of vegetarianism was in terms of animal welfare, happiness, rights, and so on. Tags: Moral Vegetarianism. I read Martin’s essay only recently, having discovered it by accident.
