There have been many classic BEL shows.
I've never heard or seen these shows but Bob has told me about them:
When he was broadcasting over KQRS (I think it was that station) he had his studio in a trailer near a farm. One of his big shtiks back then was "High atop the towers of KQRS..." One day this sow escaped from the farm and came up to the trailer window and started snorting into the trailer. Bob interviewed the pig for the show.
Another is when he found this huge bug right before airtime, and he held it hostage for $500. If any tree-hugger called in and gave his credit card number to pay $500 and save the bug he wouldn't kill it at the end of the show. So someone finally called in and paid $501 to have it killed. And it was swiftly squashed.

I have killed billions of bacteria germs and I plan to kill billions more.beanieboy said:

And the ones that like to kill homosexuals, adulterers, murderers, AND some random bug that was in the wrong place at the wrong time.
Buddhists believe that all live is there for a reason. To pointlessly kill anything, including a bug, shows little regard for life. People used to shoot at buffalo from trains for sport, and never stop to pick them up. As a result, the Buffalo began to border on extinction.
I am not against killing of all life forms. Cats are around to kill mice, that contaminate your food. But telling someone that you are going to kill a bug unless you get $500 is twisted.
A Buddhist would never threaten a Muslim that he was going to eat a ham sandwich unless he received $100, and then eat it anyway when someone stupid paid $101 for him to eat it.
It wouldn't be edifying. It's all about power, and nothing more. It is purposefully mocking with the intent to harm, and the intent to provoke and offend.
Romans 14:
15If your brother is distressed because of what you eat, you are no longer acting in love. Do not by your eating destroy your brother for whom Christ died.
Taking from this text, and that of Buddhist texts, I can only conclude that such an action is not acting love.
Even though it is in jest, there is a lot of focus and glee on the killing of other things from posters.
Buddhism teaches that all life comes from one source. While it may be necessary to end life for another to continue, such as eating, or self defense, but unnecessary killing of life makes one question the giver of that life.
The bible says that one should not worry about what they will eat, because God cares for us even more for the birds, and he cares for them as well without their tolling.
But he does care for them, so to just randomly kill these birds, who provide song, whose very existence of flight gives us hope and inspiration, the dove symbolized as the HS, shows disregard for life itself.
I was waiting for the bus as I usually do, and at this time of year, I often see several caterpillars at this one stop. They were lost on the cement, looking for leaves and grass. I bent down, scooped them up and put them on the grass. While it may seem insignificant to me, I suppose my life would seem insignificant to a being that could create a caterpillar that turned into a beautiful butterfly, so in mercy, I return the favor.

I think abortion is wrong.
In my opinion, most people simplify it.
Pro-choice people want to keep it safe and legal, say the fetus isn't human, and if you have seen a 8 week old fetus, it's kind of freaky.
Pro-Life insist that the second the egg is fertilized, the soul is housed.
I question that. People have miscarriages all the time, and that would be a lot of souls that didn't even have a chance. But of those who have miscarriages early on, sometimes there is no funeral, no death certificate, etc.
It's more complicated than either side believes, but I am pro-life.
Homosexuality and adultery and unborn baby murder are now legal. We would first have to re-criminalize these actions and only after a conviction for one of these crimes would anyone be put to death.beanieboy said:

I'll kill a bug simply for being in my house, is that twisted? If a mosquito lands on you, what do you do? Plead with it not to bite you? Do you brush it off and encourage to find blood elsewhere?
Last night my wife saw a hawk swoop down and pick off a squirrel. Should we arrest the hawk for murder?

Out of context, you have no idea what this verse is about.
