As promised, the second winner of the email of the week.
Dogs, Michael Vick, Leona Helmsley - stir the passions but illustrate the point: it is easier to value the lives and care of dogs than it is the value of a human being.

Good morning Mr. Hunt. I was listening to your show Sunday night, and I was at first flabbergasted, then intrigued at the topic of the evening about animal adoration. You are absolutely on point with your evaluation, and your point was made clearly as I listened one man who called to say he lost his wife last September, and he didn't know how he could have made it without his "dog." That is so sad!! I lost my lovely (and godly) wife of 30 years to cancer 4 years ago, and I made it through because of my love for Jesus Christ. That's how I survived. Not the cat that she gave away a week before she died, not my 4 grand sons (I lost one grand son to complications), not my loving and supporting children and fine in-laws. I pity "all the lonely people" as the Beatles sang 40 years ago who avoid the peace they are looking for when they ignor and reject Christ. So Sad!!!!!!

Mr. Hunt, I have returned to school at 55 to get my education degree to teach middle schoolers in the inner city. I am a "good" Catholic boy, and God is making sure that there are no obstacles in my way. That is where he wants me, and I know that he is in control. So many in our society just cannot accept that it is futile to try and control things, and when you relinquish the desire to control everything, that is when you find peace. In the big picture, it disgusts and saddens me that in this country, and in this world, the sanctity of life of an animal is more important than the sanctity of the human life. I heard recently that here in America we have just crossed the 50 million abortion mark since Roe vs. Wade.
Jesus weeps daily!!!!

God Bless
I enjoy your show.
Regards
Rob
