Idol ko rin kayo mga Bords! Pero hinde si April Boy. Hahaha!

But i think the issue i want to clear, is the way she killed the bat. Kelangan ba talagang ihagis ng buhay sa apoy? Di kaya torture na yun? But Lenggai said, yun daw ang sabi ng mga katutubo. I don’t get the point too.

Raise the roof Mogli! Very interesting idea! Godspeed kapatid.

Bords Mogli, You are now my Idol hehe. you have a point there really. I get it where you are coming from.

Mabuhay ka pareng Mogli..! Saludo ako!

Pax et Bonum.

bluepanjeet’s last blog post..My Ronito and Ronita

It is the culture of over-consumption, the inevitable consequence of capitalistic tenets, which is the ultimate cause of ecological imbalances. Modern societies take a lot more from what is needed from the environment not just because they can but because high profit margins are equated with higher turnover of resources. I haven’t heard of any tribe hunting/gathering any flora or fauna into extinction but I’ve read about massive extinction of local species due to mining, over-fishing and clearing of forests for agricultural or other industrial uses. I don’t know how “civilized” people would react if someone could film how various species undergo prolonged suffering (much worse than being thrown in the fire alive) as a result of destruction of their habitats for commercial ends. So to cut it short, my take on this one is, pabayaan na lang kung paminsan-minsan lang naman. Pero kung maging talamak ito at maging street food na parang balot or one-day old, ibang usapan na yan.

Now about the suffering of the bat, that’s another issue, but then again it is basically our ethnocentrism that makes us feel sorry about it. From the perspective of an individual raised in a society where bats are likened to devils in hell, being burnt alive is perhaps the most apt way of killing the poor creature.
