One Way to Read It

We recently watched three seasons of 30 Rock. In one episode, Tracy Jordan introduces the " Meat Machine ," a device for making all-meat sandwiches. Reality copied TV recently when KFC released this abomination into the world: An all-meat sandwich. If this hadn't already been forbidden by God on four occasions (twice in the Old Testament , once in the Doctrine and Covenants , and once in the Quoran ), he would have issued a new commandment expressly forbidding this abomination, which notoriety would surely have increased sales. I believe it is okay to eat meat in moderation. Our current food system abuses animals while they are yet alive, which is immoral. Listen to Tracy Morgan's interview on Fresh Air .

Israeli soldiers admitted abuses in the last Gaza conflict. "People were not instructed to shoot at everyone they see, but they were told that from a certain distance when they approach a house, no matter who it is - even an old woman - take them down." • Civilians were used as human shields, entering buildings ahead of soldiers • Soldiers fired at water tanks because they were bored, at a time of severe water shortages for Gazans Israeli troops and the people who justify their actions [the U.S] are "slid[ing] together down the moral slippery slope".

Pressured to audit Colombian plants in 2005, Coke helpfully noted a substandard number of fire extinguishers at one, but didn't address the charges. Coke often doesn't make its own Coke. It relies on a vast web of subcontractors, bottlers and distributors. Most have loose or no ties to the company, and are in countries where workplace laws are underdeveloped at best .
