Those animals that are
considered EVIL by many people:
- The spider- ooh
the dreaded spider, many think it is the work of the devil. It has 10 legs.
There is nothing wrong with a spider at all, they are not scary. If it wasn't
for the spiders in the world we would be over run by insects. However, there
are those that are poisonous, those that are deadly, they are just as afraid
of you as you are of them, all animals are. Spiders do bite, and they hurt
when they do, but unless it is not poisonous to humans there is not a need
to worry about any of them.
- The black cat- there
is nothing wrong with a black cat, it is the same as any other colored cat.
Just a cat, yes they are portrayed as evil and as witches cats a lot, but
really a black cat can be born from any other color. The color of their fur
makes no difference. They are not evil, not possessed, nothing. Would you
not have more fear looking into a lion or a tiger's eyes than in a normal
black cats eyes?
- The dog- there are
some breeds that some would say are the Devils work, that are just purely
evil. There are no particular breeds that way it is all in their upbringing.
There are some dogs that are testy by nature, for instance the malamute and
the timber wolf. Yes they are testy, but what is to say they are evil? Their
reputation? I think that is what it is. Those 2 particular breeds are the
most beautiful dogs I have ever seen, or been close to. My cousin raised a
malamute and I have a friend who has a half gray wolf and half husky and has
had it for years.
- Snakes- oh the dreaded
snake or serpent. There is nothing wrong with them either. If it wasn't for
snakes we would be over run with rodents, and other small animals. Just like
the spider there are some that are poisonous and should be avoided but there
is no need to be afraid of them as they are not out to cause you any harm
as long as you are not out to take their home or to destroy them, and bother
them.
- Alligators, Crocodiles,
sharks and any others not mentioned- they are also not the work of evil. They
are not evil creatures. They are just like us and there is no need to be afraid
of them either. They are not vengeful, they are not evil, they are just trying
to live in the best way that they see fit. The best way that they can, they
eat what they can as they are hunters of the wild.
Any animal can be violent
for any reason, there are some that are that way from birth, they are not possessed
as many would like to think. We are animals, just of the human variety therefore
we can be violent, vengeful, evil if you want to call it that. But we do take
pets in, other animals and some treat them as they are lower than the human
race. WE Are no better than them, although while we own them they are very dependent
on us, for food, water and what ever else is needed. Just think about that when
you go to get rid of an animal, if you think of dropping a house pet off in
the wild they may die... They may make it there is no way to tell, it will take
them a while to learn the natural instinct needed to live on their own. If they
even make it. Do not do that if you have ever loved your pet as it may just
kill them you do not know what they are doing or are able to do to protect or
fend for themselves.
***Recently at our county
fair we had a Reptile display, I spent many hours talking with Jim (the man
who takes care of the reptiles), there is absolutely nothing to fear of the
tame snakes that he owns. Also Jim is a man that practices the arts, he is a
very talented man. He knows much of the arts, and if you so much as have the
pleasure to meet him, tell him that you read about him here. He will have the
trailer with a display about Anacondas.***
