I worked with dogs for years, never was bitten. I was bit by a bull mastiff, years after I quit working. Not sure why he bit me. He was a pup, he may have misunderstood my gesture of submission and friendliness. I had been holding a friend's dog not too long before. All dogs have a common ancestry of non-domesticity. Can they snap? Yes. Some of the most vicious dogs I know of are dachshunds and dalmatians. Banning dogs based on breed, we may as well lock up all the human race also. We never know what may happen? Yes, owners should be prepared for "what if", no matter the breed, if they abuse the animal deal with the owner. A "shotgun" approach is not the best answer.

I am a creationist and a biology major. Science can be taught without the subject of origin as to one way or the other. Flora and fauna exist. Stick to identification(taxonomy, etc.) in the schools. Evolution has been debunked enough and true faith is a gift so the teaching of origins is really moot. Those who want true separation of "church and state" should be happy and if not they are lying to themselves if they don't believe they are trying to push their own "religion" in schools. Both should be taught or neither. Just the facts, ma'am.

Abuse them no. But animals were created for our use and one of those uses was food.

If any man be overcome with a fault, Ye who are spiritual restore such a one with a spirit of gentleness. Condolences to the Arndt family, but we live in a world of enough non-forgiveness as it is. The one hurt most by a spirit of non-forgiveness is the possessor, but it can make life miserable for all concerned. None of us are above making tragic mistakes and part of doing to others as we would have done to us would hopefully be forgiveness. Civil penalties are part of life but holding another hostage emotionally is a realm only God has the right to do and as I don't read He does neither should we. It's not always easy but that is why God asks us to rely on Him and not our own understanding.
