Portrait of a Burger as a Young Calf

Author: Peter Lovenheim
Publisher: Crown
ISBN: 0307566099
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 290

Book Description
Four years ago, journalist Peter Lovenheim was standing in a long line at McDonald’s to buy a Happy Meal for his little daughter, which would come with a much-desired Teenie Beanie Baby—either a black-and-white cow named “Daisy” or an adorable red bull named “Snort.” Finding it rather strange that young children were being offered cuddly toy cows one minute and eating the grilled remains of real ones the next, Lovenheim suddenly saw clearly the great disconnect between what we eat and our knowledge of where it comes from. Determined to understand the process by which living animals become food, Lovenheim did the only thing he could think of: He bought a calf—make that twin calves, number 7 and number 8—from the dairy farm where they were born and asked for permission to spend as much time as necessary hanging around and observing everything that happened in the lives of these farm animals. Portrait of a Burger as a Young Calf is the provocative true story of Peter Lovenheim’s hands-on journey into the dairy and beef industries as he follows his calves from conception to possible consumption. In the process, he gets to know the good, hard-working people who raise our cattle and make milk products, beef, and veal available to consumers like you and me. He supplies us with a “fly on the wall” view of how these animals are used to put food on America’s very abundant tables. Constantly vigilant about wanting to be an observer who never interferes, Lovenheim allows the reader to see every aspect of a cow’s life, without passing judgment. Reading this book will forever change the way you think about food and the people and animals who provide it for us. From the Hardcover edition.

Book Description
Can God call a Woman to Pastor is a book about the sovereignty of the God of creation, Whom we know through the Lord Jesus Christ. This book is without the subjective denominational, religious and ideological persuasion that occurs when writers try to sale their point of view. This book shows that the message and the messenger of the Kingdom of God are not limited to gender, color or ethnicity. It also shows that the ability to be a leader in the Church (the world could use this as well) is not based first on our physical abilities but on our intellectual abilities. The ability to reason comes from the brain. When it comes to intellect, both the males and females brains are the same. This is a proven theory without argument. This book supports the equality for male and female in the Kingdom of God. It also supports the equality of males and females in the kingdoms of this world. Every one who wants to exercise their God given right to become a leader will benefit greatly from this book. This book helps us to be all that we can be without feeling guilty or intimidated about who don't believe we should be in the position we are in. This book is about the freedom God gives us within the His moral laws. This book helps to understand what the scriptures teach in Galatians 3:25 "But after that faith is come, we are no longer under a schoolmaster. For ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus. For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ. There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus." King James Version. Once the true Church of Jesus Christ lead the way in freeing humanity, then the world will follow. As long as there is prejudice in the Church there will be prejudice in the world. The Church of Jesus is the leader of peace and harmony. Any Church that preaches bondage may need to look at the word of God to see if they are part of this Church of Jesus Christ, or declare they are of themselves.
