Finally, some sanity in Colorado.

Colorado court rules elephants at zoo cannot pursue their release because they are not human

We've seen these lawsuits and watched this slowly climb the legal ladder for some time now. A few countries recognize "civil rights" for animals (such as Spain) but most sane places do not. There is a reason for that; animals are not humans, are not fully self-aware, and have no civil rights. We humans have a responsibility to treat them decently. This makes all the difference in the world.

Leftists are funny; their goals are everything and consistency nothing. The same people pushing rights for elephants are the same people who will tell you an unborn baby is just tissue and can be ripped out of the womb whenever someone decides. The argument they make is sentiency is the key to the right to life, and if a fetus isn't sentient then it's not a human life.

Of course the same holds true of very small children, of old dementia patients, of the brain damaged and whatnot. The anti-life crowd wants these people included in the list of fair game for euthanasia.

Anyone remember Terri Schiavo? The Left was quite eager to pull the plug on the poor woman and we didn't understand why they were so hot for it. Well, it was because they want the power of the godhead, as I argued in the article linked above.

So liberals are just fine with using sentientcy as the determining factor where babies are concerned, or where human life is concerned, but they demand animals be given rights. Why?

Because it downplays our humanity, which is a reflection of God. The Left has long sought to murder the Almighty, and to reduce Mankind to mobile meat with minds. If we are just animals we have no rights either, except ones granted by the State - the new god.

This is nothing short of a reflection of the war on Christianity and Judaism. By saying animals have civil rights they equate us with animals.

That is in direct contradiction to what we have always known. The Book of Genesis shows God saying "let us make Man in our own image and likeness" as opposed to the animals. Does that mean God doesn't love animals? No, but He didn't make them the same as us. We have free will; they don't. As a result we have rights, given by God Himself. The Founding Fathers understood this, which is why they say rights are inalienable; they come from God and not the state.

The Left hates that. They want the power to tell everyone how to live and what to do. To attain that power they must first destroy the idea that human beings have inalienable rights, and to do that they have to downgrade Man from "a little lower than the angels" to mere meat in motion. If we are things we are subject to their will.

That is a big part of why so many liberals support animal rights. Granted, many of the foot soldiers are just sentimental and emotion-driven, but the inner core pushes this stuff for the reasons I just outlined. They are trying to fundamentally change our view of ourselves, humble us in a very bad way, so we accept their authority.

Liberalism is evil, the doctrine of demons. Satan wants us to feel like animals, ugly and unlovable by God. If he gets us to believe such things we will turn away from God, join the rebellion. The Left is basically his church and they are doing what he wills.

I assure you, civil rights for elephants would only be the beginning. And it would be used to justify tampering with human life, bringing us down and not the animals up (the animals neither know nor care about the matter except they don't want to be abused.) We could be compelled to receive medical treatment we do not want, even as far as chips implanted in our brains. How can we refuse, if we are no more than smart animals ourselves? Inevitably this will lead to mass euthanasia, as most of the Ruling Class is terrified of overpopulation, having learned that in their youths during the '70's from fools like Paul Ehrlich. If they can get us to believe we are animals, how long before they propose "culling the herd" for our own good?

So this thing in the People's Republic of Colorado is a welcome development. It suggests the tide may be turning.

Let us hope and pray so.
