Ted Bundy, David Berkowitz and Jeffrey Dahmer have more in
common than just being serial killers. These three murderers are also connected
by the fact that each of them tortured and/or killed animals during their
childhoods. In fact a leading commonality in 99 percent of serial killers is
cruelty to animals at an early age. In a study of male prison inmates who were
deemed violent offenders, found that 56% admitted to having committed acts of
violence against animals. Researchers as well as FBI and other law enforcement
agencies nationwide have linked animal cruelty to domestic violence, child
abuse, serial killings.
This research should not come as a shock to us. The Bible
told us long ago in Proverbs 12:10:
"A
righteous man has regard for the life of his animal, But even the compassion
of the wicked is cruel.”
Cruelty to an
innocence life is a sign of warped mind. I wonder what that says about us as a
society in how we treat the unborn. Since Roe vs. Wade was decided, 55,875,000
children have been aborted in the 40 years. This
decision legalized abortion and sanctioned the killing of children in the womb.
By comparison the number of lives lost in every conflict the United States of
America has been involved in, including the Civil War, is roughly 1.4 million.
The Holocaust, which is considered the greatest tragedy of this century,
claimed the lives of 5.8 million. 55,875,000 is 10 times that number. Sadly,
55,875,000 is not a static number. It grows by around 1.2 million people a
year. Sadly, we have better laws to protect against animal cruelty than we do
human life. When we lose respect for
life and compassion, we become something truly evil.
