Baggywrinkle

So, because one family or congregation does not value
their animals you discount the entire culture? This attitude is divisive and unproductive. With this logic I should discard the Amish crop rotation, put away my propane pole lamp, and not bother to learn how to convert an
electric blender to compressed air. What about the LDS
Church? Throw away their law of provident living? Or any
other culture and people you can name?

poppycock!

Borrow what works and leave the rest.
