Animal Sacrifices PDF Print E-mail
Written by Christian Cowgirl   


sacrificeAs an animal lover I always found it difficult to understand why the God who created animals, would command the sacrifice of them. It seemed incredibly cruel to me.

Then I read verses like the following by David in Psalm 51:16-17.

For You do not desire sacrifice, or else I would give it; You do not delight in burnt offering. The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit, A broken and a contrite heart— These, O God, You will not despise.

What? That really confused me. Did God want sacrifices or not?

divinghorses3People have different reactions when they hear about or see diving horses. Some think, “That’s so cool, I wish I could do that!” Some immediately feel sorry for the horse and assume that horrible things were done to it to train it to dive. Others aren’t quite sure what to think.

Diving horses is an event that started in the 1880’s. William “Doc” Carver, a Buffalo Bill “sidekick,” supposedly got the idea for the show when a horse he was riding had to plunge from a bridge into a river. This gave him the idea for a stunt to add to his traveling show. The first rider was his own daughter, Lorena, who jumped on Doc’s horse, Silver King. The act was part of The Great Carver Show. They had many riders, mostly young women.

There is no such thing as "cold." Cold is only the absence of heat. Trying to remind myself this as I deal with frozen water buckets lately.
