‘Eco-Eating: Eating as if the Earth Matters’; Collect for the Feast of the Holy Innocents
Found tonight on a page titled ‘Eco-Eating: Eating as if the Earth Matters’:
ìThe human appetite for animal flesh is a driving force behind virtually every major category of environmental damage now threatening the human future ó deforestation, erosion, fresh water scarcity, air and water pollution, climate change, biodiversity loss, social injustice, the destabilization of communities, and the spread of disease.î
Editors, World Watch, July/August 2004
of Bethlehem by King Herod.
Receive, we pray, into the arms of your mercy
all innocent victims;
and by your great might frustrate the designs of evil tyrants
and establish your rule of justice, love, and peace;
through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you,
in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.
(Collect for the Feast of the Holy Innocents, December 28th)
