PETA Upset at Six Flags Roach Contest

Monday, September 25, 2006

GURNEE, Ill. - People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals wants Six Flags Great America to scrap its Halloween-themed cockroach-eating promotion.

A spokeswoman for the animal rights organization says the contest at the amusement park's FrightFest is "gratuitously cruel."

The park in Gurnee, Ill., is joining other Six Flags parks in offering unlimited line-jumping privileges to anyone who eats a live Madagascar hissing cockroach. The bugs are up to three inches long.

The contest begins next month.

Amusement park officials are defending their menu choice. Great America spokesman Jim Taylor says the bugs are nutritious, high in protein and fat free.

You know, that is just demonic to me. Just like Fear Factor. Appealing to the basest of our sinful characteristics: greed. Sheesh--now so one can get into a theme park! How bananas! :emot-pray:

Trying to get something for free by eating something nutritional isn't evil, it'd prudential. :emot-pray:

What's absurd is PETA saying that...I almost just want to get a truck load of bugs and start stomping on them outside of PETA's office......You know....are they like that giant bug off Men in Black?

It's repulsive and stupid. Eat food, not bugs. We are nations of thrill-seekers, and have lost our minds. Like Nero fiddling while Rome burned.

Was John the Baptist demonic and thrill seeking?

There is nothign wrong in seeking thrill so long as it is not engaged in sin....eating a bug is eating food, they're some of the most nutritional things you can eat.

I live in a trailer park, near pine trees. We have two specific kinds of roaches which thrive in this atmosphere and I can't stand it. whichever group gets here first can have mine. If Peta wants to rescue them, I won't stop them. If someone else wants to eat them, I don't care. Just come get the lil buggers.

:24: Lady Raven!

This story has upset me, too...BUT...for completely different reasons...for one, it's gross...&...It's still ALIVE...Eww!...at least kill and cook the thing!

Warning

Pregnant women should avoid reading this story just like they should avoid riding roller coasters...It's probably just best if you stay away from 6 Flags all together.

I mean, do you really want to wait around for your family to wait in line for the rides or possibly risk seeing others or your own family member(s) eat a large living Madagascar hissing cockroach?!? & then, imagine if your husband should try to kiss you afterward to amuse himself further :taped: . One might just have to faint away...possibly causing unnecessary harm to you and your child.

:P ...Spare me.

Most seriously, I think this is in very poor taste.

    • You are coming up higher in this season – above the assignments of character assassination and verbal arrows sent to manage you, contain you, and derail your purpose. Where you have had your dreams and sleep robbed, as well as your peace and clarity robbed – leaving you feeling foggy, confused, and heavy – God is, right now, bringing freedom back -- now you will clearly see the smoke and mirrors that were set to distract you and you will disengage.

      Right now God is declaring a "no access zone" around you, and your enemies will no longer have any entry point into your life. Oil is being poured over you to restore the years that the locust ate and give you back your passion. This is where you will feel a fresh roar begin to erupt from your inner being, and a call to leave the trenches behind and begin your odyssey in your Christ calling moving you to bear fruit that remains as you minister to and disciple others into their Christ identity.

      This is where you leave the trenches and scale the mountain to fight from a different place, from victory, from peace, and from rest. Now watch as God leads you up higher above all the noise, above all the chaos, and shows you where you have been seated all along with Him in heavenly places where you are UNTOUCHABLE. This is where you leave the soul fight, and the mind battle, and learn to fight differently.

      You will know how to live like an eagle and lead others to the same place of safety and protection that God led you to, which broke you out of the silent prison you were in. Put your war boots on and get ready to fight back! Refuse to lay down -- get out of bed and rebuke what is coming at you. Remember where you are seated and live from that place.

      Acts 1:8 - “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses … to the end of the earth.”

    • George Whitten, the visionary behind Worthy Ministries and Worthy News, explores the timing of the Simchat Torah War in Israel. Is this a water-breaking moment? Does the timing of the conflict on October 7 with Hamas signify something more significant on the horizon?

    • Understanding the Enemy!

      I thought I write about the flip side of a topic, and how to recognize the attempts of the enemy to destroy lives and how you can walk in His victory!

      For the Apostle Paul taught us not to be ignorant of enemy's tactics and strategies.

      2 Corinthians 2:112  Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices. 

      So often, we can learn lessons by learning and playing "devil's" advocate.  When we read this passage,

      Mar 3:26  And if Satan rise up against himself, and be divided, he cannot stand, but hath an end. 
      Mar 3:27  No man can enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he will first bind the strongman; and then he will spoil his house. 

      Here we learn a lesson that in order to plunder one's house you must first BIND up the strongman.  While we realize in this particular passage this is referring to God binding up the strongman (Satan) and this is how Satan's house is plundered.  But if you carefully analyze the enemy -- you realize that he uses the same tactics on us!  Your house cannot be plundered -- unless you are first bound.   And then Satan can plunder your house!

    • Daniel: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 3

      Shalom everyone,

    • Abraham and Issac: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 2
      Shalom everyone,

      As we continue this series the next obvious sign of the resurrection in the Old Testament is the sign of Isaac and Abraham.

      Gen 22:1  After these things God tested Abraham and said to him, "Abraham!" And he said, "Here I am."
      Gen 22:2  He said, "Take your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you."

      So God "tests" Abraham and as a perfect picture of the coming sacrifice of God's only begotten Son (Yeshua - Jesus) God instructs Issac to go and sacrifice his son, Issac.  Where does he say to offer him?  On Moriah -- the exact location of the Temple Mount.
