In Reply to: you are totally misunderstanding my point there...(read) posted by Dean Alessandrin on August 30, 2002 at 15:04:47:
:My point was simply this:
:There are many people (myself included) who don’t like the way the herp community is headed with all the hybrids and with everyone concentrating on creating new “mutations”.
:Do you have a RIGHT to? Yes I believe you do.
:I PERSONALLY just don’t like it.
:I have LESS interest in a man-made morphs or hybrids than I do in an animal that was created by nature though thousands of years of natural selection. The animals EVOLVED to be best suited for their environment. And they are STILL evolving. To me…THAT is interesting. Much more than what we can make by creating animals that may have never existed without our…shall we say “encouragement”. Again…this is my OPINION. I don’t think I or anyone else has the right to say you don’t have the right to do what you are doing. I personally just don’t care what happens if I mix a ghost with a cookie-dough-blizzard. To some…that’s what they like. So ok.
:I have no doubt that your corns enjoy breeding no matter what the mutation. They probably even enjoy the occasional romp-in-the-aspen with a California kingsnake in a wild, kinky, inter-genus taboo kind of way.
:The point I was making was that to those of us who feel the way I do…don’t take it out on the ANIMALS. We don’t like the practice of creating mutts and mutants. Period. We don’t like it every bit as much as you do like it. You have to deal with that just like we have to deal with the fact that you will keep on doing it.
:But…the point is…if you feel as I do…hate the practice…wish people didn’t do it…but don’t hate the SNAKES themselves. They are still living, breathing creatures that are stuck in a deli cup on a table. They should be treated just as humanly once they are created as other snakes.
:My 2 cents. As always…I encourage debate.
:
and inter genus kinky taboo?! LOL! i gotta come to one of your presentations and catch your act live! how much are tickets and where do you send for them dean? ;-]
