    Well, I as a (very sick) 8 year-old child used to take pleasure in killing cute little brown anole lizards because I was acting out being emotionally abused at that point by my family. But later  I repented of that when I became a Christian, thankfully God took away that sick desire and I never did it again, and have since rescued many more anole lizards from getting inside my home and releasing them outside (still an expert at catching them, I catch them almost every time) and I feel much better about saving lives rather than snuffing them out.

    NO!  And I would beat the life out of any child who I see hurting

    or killing an animal.  NO EXCUSES for why they did it.  If I were in a situation where I had to save a child or an animal but not able to save both, I would not even have to think about it - I'd save the animal because the child will just grow up to be an a$$hole anyway.

    When will the official churches start praying for the false prophet? Orthodox Christian three hand signs are different than Buddhist mudras. Ecumenism = 263 heresies; each heresy leads to hell. Orthodoxy = the only true faith; Roman Catholics tried one cup - one spoon ritual and got sick with Bubonic plague; if heresy enters Orthodox monastery then monks/nuns will get sick with flu/tuberculosis (for instance); Orthodox churches who closed for COVID or had disposable cups/spoons or dipped spoon into alcohol are no longer brides of Christ (now they serve Satan and honor Satan's new COVID religion). Don’t go into UFO to be “healed” by evil demons; demons never do good. SSN is written as a barcode/QRcode; then it's put into a chip; chip is put into vaccine; chipped people are influenced (by super computers) to receive grey plastic card World Passport with no name on it (but when they stretch their hands to get it, gov't clerk presses secret button to administer the unforgivable green 666 tattoo by isotope rays). If you reject mark of the beast (by hiding within a 10-15 people group according to saints Gabriel Urgebadze and Seraphim of Sarov), then your direct ancestors go to heaven (according to saint Vyacheslav Krasheninnikov from Ural); forgive me.

    Source(s): First vaccine shuts off your immune system; second vaccine gives you diseases; third vaccine puts your immune system back and it will start fighting the diseases and will cause death. Saint Paisios from Mount Athos said that the devil wants to deceive the rich with freemasonry, poor with communism, and believers with ecumenism. Elpidios Vagianakis said that there will be seven “mark of the beast” vaccines; reject all of them! Documents are from Satan; burn all the documents that you can find. Electronics will be used to track you. Even old broken unplugged 1970 TV set will show the evil flying antichrist using Tesla's ether. Don’t go into UFO to be “healed” by evil demons; demons never do good; always pray the Jesus prayer or to saints who help right away (like saint Vyacheslav Krasheninnikov according to whom if you reject mark of the beast, then your direct ancestors go to heaven); forgive me.

    My grandad's mum- (my great nan), did to survive and in order for her family to survive during World War Two. As you and I both know, there was a lot of rationing about during the war and food was pretty bloody scarce back then. So anyway, my grandad came home from leave from the army, and one night, at the dinner-table, he said to his mum: "Mum, where's.... (whatever the rabbit's name was)?", to which, my great nan apparently, replied: "You're eating him!" Anyway, the story goes that my grandad lost his **** and left the table in disgust, and it apparently, took him a bloody long time to forgive his mum.

    when i was young, there was a nest of birds in a tree in my backyard. i would always see the mother come give them food, and i decided i wanted to see them fly. i shook the tree a bit to make them fly, and sure enough they did, but what i didn’t realize was that my dog was behind me, and chased around the baby bird. the bird obviously didn’t have experience with flying, and couldn’t keep himself up long enough to escape my dog. the bird didn’t make it and i feel guilty to this day. although i do have mental illnesses, i really don’t think that was the cause of it.👍 if someone is killing animals on purpose, it would be a different story. many serial killers did that in their youth, and u see how that turned out for them.

    When I was a very young child I went to put my hand over this toad in the grass and I miscalculated and crushed it. I was absolutely devastated. Not a pet, no, but a living creature just the same. I was about 5. I am 65 now, and I have never forgotten it. But has it caused an actual mental illness? No, but some sorrow and stress, yes.
