Oh, how the mighty have fallen!

"An Australian zoo has put a group of humans on display..." Reuters reported yesterday. The name of the exhibit is Big Brother behind bars. Why any human being would degrade himself and willing choose to be treated like an animal is beyond me! There was a time when man took his place over the animals as was intended from the beginning. "And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth." (Gen. 1:26) But now some would rather "relate" to their "poor, exploited, ancestors." Also in the news was an article about how NJ wants to take the phrase "no idiot or insane person should enjoy the right of suffrage" out of their constitution so that people with some mental disabilities won't be barred from voting. I think the truth is that 50% of the population falls into that category (ok, so that is a bit of an exaggeration, but I can't help being frustrated by the absolute stupidity of my on genus).
