Stabat Mater
“For his people’s sins, in anguish,
there she saw the victim languish,
bleed in torments, bleed and die.
Saw the Lord’s anointed taken,
saw her Child in death forsaken,
heard his last expiring cry.”

“Animals are God’s creatures, not human property, nor utilities, nor resources, nor commodities, but precious beings in God’s sight…. Christians whose eyes are fixed on the awfulness of crucifixion are in a special position to understand the awfulness of innocent suffering. The Cross of Christ is God’s absolute identification with the weak, the powerless, and the vulnerable, but most of all with unprotected, undefended, innocent suffering.”
– The Rev. Professor Andrew Linzey, PhD, DD
