Do you eat pigs?
Does your church serve bacon,
ham, spare ribs, pork chops?
Learn the horrible truth
1,000 pigs are slaughtered in the U.S. every hour.
Mother pigs (sows) survive for 3-5 years warehoused
with 2,000 to 10,000 other sows in iron-runged
cement-floored stalls (gestation crates) with no room
to turn, with nothing to do. Factory farm workers use
a boar to alert them when a sow is in heat and then
they employ artificial insemination sow by sow.
They are kept there for about 100 days and then
moved to farrowing crates where they have room to
lie down on their sides but are held down by metal
bars to prevent them from damaging the future-
profitable 8 to 14 piglets they birth.
Within the first 24 hours of each piglet’s life, factory
farm workers (not vets) clip or tattoo their ears, cut
their needle teeth, chop off their tails, give them an
iron shot and male piglets are castrated, all without
anesthetics. The piglets are returned to their mothers
for only 3-4 weeks and are then transported to
facilities where they are prepared for slaughter.
For the first time in their lives, 5-6 month old pigs see
daylight as they are crammed onto trucks and shipped
to slaughter. They arrive days later, debilitated and
dehydrated from the heat and stress, or some arrive
literally frozen to the sides of the vehicles.
Free-range? Whatever minor advantages there may be
for free-range raised pigs, all pigs are slaughtered at 5-6
months of age at the same slaughterhouses.

Help us end cruelty in places where people worship!
Throughout the ages, human beings have accepted
killing, violence and violent behavior as just being a
part of life. And organized religions have perpetuated
and endorsed this kind of thinking, burying their
collective head in the sand.
Churches talk about peace and love and compassion
while we take pleasure in hunting animals, bull fights
and cock fights, horse racing and fishing. In places of
worship, people wear clothing made from the furs and
skins of tortured animals.
And most importantly, our diets are based on violence
toward and the deaths of billions of animals. And
these kinds of meals are supported, endorsed and
promoted by most religions.
We are urging people of faith to include all of God’s
creatures in all programs, activities, sermons, events
and fundraisers.
Mission and Purpose of All-Creatures.org
To promote through education the prevention of
suffering and cruelty to any of God's creatures,
human or otherwise, including, but not limited to their
diet, their health and their living conditions.
To promote through education the elimination of the
use of animals in biomedical research and testing,
their use as food, or their use for any and all
commercial purposes; and to protect the environment
in which we all live, so that no living beings suffer
from its destruction or pollution.
To support organizations that have similar goals
of preventing any harm to any of God's creatures,
human or otherwise, or to the environment.
To provide an internet archive of educational
materials to assist both teachers and students in the
furtherance of cruelty-free living.
