HOW YOU CAN HELP "LUCKY" ELEPHANT STUCK IN CONCRETE ZOO for 46 YEARS, NOW SHE'S ALL ALONE! :[
SEND A LETTER NOW!
It only takes a few minutes to write a letter - the letter that could make all the difference for Lucky after 46 years in San Antonio Zoo.
Please write a letter - to the zoo, to City Council, to the Express-News.
To Steve McCusker - Executive Director, and Gilbert F Vazquez - President of the Board of Directors, San Antonio Zoo: explain why you want Lucky freed, & be sure to say that you will not be visiting the zoo until she is released. You can also say that other zoos have successfully closed their exhibits and transported their elephants to sanctuaries.
Send your letter to: Steve McCusker & Gilbert F Vazquez San Antonio Zoo 3903 N. St.
St. Mary’s Street San Antonio TX 78212-7183 Also call (210) 734-7291
To Mayor Phil Hardberger and City Council: the zoo is on city land, & is subsidized by us - the taxpayers. Council therefore has the financial authority to intervene. It also has a civic duty to do so, since both Lucky and the zoo are symbols of San Antonio. Council must not be afraid to make the moral decision that Steve McCusker does not care about.
E-mail the Mayors office at phardberger@sanantonio.gov. Copy all 10 council members - district1@sanantonio.gov etc.
Letters to the Express-News should be short and polite.
Focus on just one of the many reasons to free Lucky:
-Zoos cannot provide for the needs of an elephant. -Conservation and zoos are contradictions. -Zoos have outlived their educational value. -Other large U.S. zoos have successfully closed their elephant exhibits.
Send your letter to letters@express-news.net. Be sure to include your name, address, phone number, and e-mail address.
Lucky cannot speak for herself. Silence will not bring her the freedom she deserves. FREE LUCKY!

Thank the Lord Jesus Christ for your informative and eye opening profile. Although I have been following the herbivorous diet for about 13 years now, I really hope it opens the eye of others who may stumble upon its knowledge and faithful teaching. God had created us to be concerned stewards towards his creation, yet people still continue to kill senselessly without remorse. I pray that God will breakthrough the hearts of others because of wonderful informative source pages like yours. I thank you so much and I thank God that I added your profile page when I was a backslidden believer. I have now changed that. But thank you once again.
hey Evandalist have been and done a gig in diss park for Hope 2008. This is about churches around the area getting to the community. It was a great day, PLease tell us what you think.
A certain Communist regime is preparing the Olympic Games....
While Falun Gong is practiced openly in 80 countries, today in its homeland of China it is subject to severe human rights violations. The scale and scope of abuses taking place make it possibly the largest religious persecution in the world today. YOU CAN CLIC ON THE PICTURES BELOW TO READ MORE AND SHARE THESE INFORMATIONS, thanks...
Falun Gong is a traditional Chinese spiritual discipline that is Buddhist in nature. It consists of moral teachings for daily life, a meditation, and four gentle exercises. Falun Gong is always taught free of charge and is practiced in over 80 countries.
Falun Gong practitioners raise banners reading “Truth, Compassion, Forbearance” as police approach on Tiananmen Square
"Hebrews 4:14 Seeing then that we have a great high priest, that is passed into the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our profession. 15 For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin. 16 Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need."
"1 Corinthians 10:13 There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it."
When we are tempted to conform to the ways of the world, just realize that Jesus Christ was also tempted in all the ways we are tempted. By his experiencing the same pressures we feel today, we have an advocate (defense attorney) between us and God, Jesus Christ who knows what we are going through. We can boldly approach God for His mercy and have His help in time of need. God's promise to us is that when we are tempted, He will alway provide a way out for us. We just have to look for it to see it.
Are you a soldier for Christ? Do you wear his banner everywhere you go? Do you tell of if his redeeming grace and also walk as an exemplary soldier? The world around us is lost; people either don’t know about Christ or choose not to follow him. We need a new group of Soldiers for Christ that are ready to go to war for him and proclaim his name. If you’re a soldier of the most high King, comment back say “I’M A SOLDIER FOR JEHOVAH!” We need to start changing things, and that change starts with us! Stay blessed ..
"James 1:2 My brethren, count it all joy when ye fall into divers temptations; 3 Knowing this, that the trying of your faith worketh patience. 4 But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing. 5 If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him. 6 But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering. For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed. 7 For let not that man think that he shall receive any thing of the Lord. 8 A double minded man is unstable in all his ways."
Be joyful when you are under attack (temptation) and realize that attacks form the adversary teach us patience and patience increases our faith in God. As our faith (believing) increases we begin to become perfect and entire. We want nothing because God supply of our every need is not hindered by our own actions. The only thing that stands between asking and receiving is doubt. We can not waver between doubt & faith. If we allow our minds to fall into this trap we will not receive the things we ask God for and will have instability in our finances our health, our families, and all other areas of our life.

we have arrived. we have transcended beliefs to be the light of divine experience and the knowing!
as christ, prophet mohammed (shanthi/peace), buddha, our oneness with source transcends all beliefs to simply be supreme peace of the moment- ahimsa.
ahimsa matures in time.
we are the awake to peace that is love. we are awake to being ahimsa- supreme peace, non-killing, non-violence and the experience of pure being.
we are the remnant karma of all sages within this breath of divinity that is radiant in all the living and specially ours in expression of this magical moment in time. we are the purpose that uplifts humanity! we are the supreme peace and perfect love representing all sages of all the past in this beautiful moment of now.
Hello! I just thought I would drop you a line and tell you that I bought a rainbow bible yesterday (the scriputes are colored accoring to subject, love, faith,family, ect.)and under the colors of "sin" and "evil" there are a ton of references to eatting and scaraficing animals....now how how on earth have Christains missed this for over two thousand years? I love my fellow brothers and sisters but it breaks my heart that some of them honestly believe that animals were put here for our consumtion. Thank you for your page.
"2 Corinthians 5:18 And all things are of God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation; 19 To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation. 20 Now then we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ's stead, be ye reconciled to God." "James 5:20 Let him know, that he which converteth the sinner from the error of his way shall save a soul from death, and shall hide a multitude of sins."
It is not how much of God's Word you know, it is speaking what you know that counts. We have each been given the ministry of reconciliation and the word of reconciliation. You are an Ambassador for Christ. Share the truth that you know and God will use what you share to rescue others from the darkness of the world.
most of the vegans and vegetarians i know are not christian nor profess any belief in Christ nor follow his teachings, and most of the people that i know who are christian or identify with christianity are not vegetarian... not that it makes a difference in the long run to me what people believe, but it's not only 'nice' to have someone like your group on myspace, it's encouraging to have a friend who understands and knows the path i have been walking. thank you for being on myspace. i appreciate your presence more than you imagine. Christ's peace to you my brothers and sisters~
Welcome to EarthDweller!! Thank you for having a Christian page for people to learn from!! Thank you for caring about our animals and the world we live in!! ..
