Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:11pm Handy Haversack:

One interesting book I worked on used the term "domesecration" and basically posited that using horses and cows for food and labor (and the land needs that entailed) were the prime driver of human violence and that the entire history of war and conquest can be connected to it. It's a big swing, but I think there's something to it.

Stanley, the price was right, and the Ardbeg was very expensive, so I did it!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:12pm ultradamno:

How people domesticated dogs is interesting but is there more on how cats domesticated people?
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:13pm Carmichael:

Awesome hoomei!

Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:14pm Handy Haversack:

The Latin name for dogs should be "garbage-loving wolves." I also like to tell Bagpipe that all the smart dogs went back in the water.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:15pm northguineahills:

Actually, the domestication of dogs by humans was more symbiotic then one side, Although, cats invested their presence around humans, and those w/ more docile behavior were more likely to be domesticated, humans had a part in picking individual cats w/ domesticated behavior. One way cats ingratiated themselves to humans, was to 'meow', not found in wild cats.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:15pm northguineahills:

wolves aren't above garbage either...

Handy at 6:11, you made me think of this quote: “Until he extends the circle of his compassion to all living things, man will not himself find peace.”
― Albert Schweitzer
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:22pm northguineahills:

also related, since Jews didn't see cats as a sign of Statan (and that was only amongst Western Catholic Christianity in the later medieval ages), and Jews had a higher survival rate w/ the Bubonic plague, due to the cats that hunted the rats (who carried the fleas), they were scapegoated which led to pogroms...
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:22pm Handy Haversack:

Yeah, spod. Exactly.

I am VERY easily manipulated by the cats.
Avatar ♥ 6:28pm βrian:

I've been cat-whipped since an early age.

Which, if they were, you'd think they'd get at least as many references in the big book as snakes or calves

Why Aren’t Cats Mentioned In The Bible? constative.com...
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:40pm northguineahills:

It is odd ultradmno, as cats were very common and venerated in Egypt (a major backdrop and location many times in the Bible).
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:40pm northguineahills:

I like red fish (Le Posson Rouge was a fave club of mine in NYC).
Avatar ♥ 6:41pm βrian:

What's a three-letter word, beginning with E, for a flightless bird??

Rouget is more red than poisson rouge, generally.

... Egg!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:46pm ultradamno:

From the Charles Portis' novel True Grit ""I have known some horses and a good many more pigs who I believe harbored evil intent in their hearts. I will go further and say all cats are wicked, though often useful. Who has not seen Satan in their sly faces?" Some preachers will say, well, that is superstitious "claptrap." My answer is this: Preacher, go to your Bible and read Luke 8: 26-33” (a passage that refers to an exorcism in which demons are cast into a pig)
Avatar ♥ 6:49pm βrian:

Well, Mr. Charles Portis, you treat them right, and they'll treat you right.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:51pm ultradamno:

I've only seen evil in my cat when she sees another cat. She definitely thinks they're evil (or at least trying to horn in on her action)
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:55pm spodiodi:
