December 29'th, 2009:
Boycott Israeli Products!
These days it is a year since the cruel slaughtering
of thousands of innocent Palestinians in the Gaza-Terror through Israel.
The Genocide of the Palestinians is systematic just like the genocide
of the Jews, the American Indians and other people. Again politics fail,
therefore as someone who cares, one can only boycott Israeli products.
For that reason the link to the BDS Movement was added to: Human Links
Eliminate Unemployment!
If you are a nobody and poor, if you have good ideas, you can only give
them away for free or take them to your grave. I (Mark Schmid)
would rather give
them away for free, therefore I decided to publish my idea, how unemployment
can be eliminated world-wide, at my expenses here, even if the idea most
likely will be stolen then and someone else will take the honor of having
had the idea, probably some economist who has the money to write a book
about it or who is sponsored by a big publisher: Social Capitalism with the variable Schmid-Tax.
December 27'th, 2009:
I (Mark Schmid)
saw James Cameron's new Science Fiction film "Avatar" and I am
very excited about it because I believe it strongly promotes animal rights.
And that's a blockbuster sensation for a Hollywood film. Read all about
it in: Avatar, an important Movie for Animal Rights
I changed the first sentence of "What is Castration / Spaying / Neutering?".
December 23'rd, 2009:
The text regarding the use of a nickname or real name in the
registration process and in account management of members was shortened.
December 22'nd, 2009:
The slogan "Taking other Species seriously" was added to Our Slogans.
December 21'st, 2009:
The slogan "Respect towards other Species is
Respect towards Creation is ..." was added to Our Slogans.
December 15'th, 2009:
The Difference between Animal Rights and Animal Welfare
was added.
November 20'th, 2009:
Some of my (Mark Schmid)
texts are criticized as being anti-women. That's O.K., because some of them
really are. After all, I am a little angry with women sometimes about their
belief that they have a right to enslave animals just for their pleasures
and hobby. Men are not that much better though and often play an important
part in various activities of animal enslavement. In the future I will therefore
try to write more gender-neutral. I've made a start with a new leaflet, in which
women are not even mentioned! :-) Considering the subject of the leaflet,
I'd say that's an especially promising start! But read for yourself: Power over the Male
June 11'th, 2009:
Over 3 years after our former project www.Hengstseite.ch was
closed due to insufficient support, I (Mark Schmid)
have finally translated
the original paper which started it all to English. This paper influenced a lot
of people and some of them keep their stallions in groups themselves today,
so be sure to check it out if you are into horses: Stallion Group-Keeping in Theory and Practice
The foreword was updated in Social Capitalism with the variable Schmid-Tax
April 9'th, 2009:
Stallion Group-Keeping at the Swiss National Stud
As mentioned in March, the Swiss National Stud in Avenches
started experimenting with keeping stallions in a group last year and despite my
urgent inquiries, did not tell us about it. As this is a priority subject for me
(Mark Schmid)
I added an own section for this: "Stallion Group-Keeping at the Swiss National Stud"
To remind people that I have been one of the strongest promoters of stallion
group-keeping for over a decade, I have uploaded my first article on
the subject-matter again: Stallion Group-Keeping in Theory and Practice
This article was published 2003 to 2005 on my former webpage, Hengstseite.ch
(Stallionpage) and I was going to wait with re-publishing it here until I had
finished its translation to English. Instead of waiting, I decided to go ahead
and publish at least the Germen version again right away.
Reviewing some old content, I noticed that I had still not supplied the
response letter of the Head District Attorney's Office of the Canton Zurich
about my Legal charges against the biggest sexual mutilator of animals in Switzerland.
This was something I had missed and wanted to add for quite a while and now
I finally did it.
April 4'th, 2009:
Spring Cleaning!
After over 3 years of Organization for Animal Dignity a few texts have
accumulated which are no longer up to date or not relevant anymore. To tidy
up our Internet page and to not bother new readers with unimportant things,
a few such texts were removed in a spring cleaning.
Many unused comment forums were also removed.
April 2'nd, 2009:
Many people who have a heart for animals do not even
know that castration of animals is absolutely unnecessary and a severe
sexual mutilation. Animal welfare organizations and the (pet) animal using
industry specifically leave their customers misinformed about this or flat
out lie to them. - With severe consequences for animals, for animal protection
and for our society. To change this we need money for education and
information, that's why I (Mark Schmid)
had the idea of a leaflet which we can hand out to animal owners
who have castrated or purchased their animals due to misinformation: Voluntary Ethics-Tax
March 21'st, 2009:
Social Capitalism for Humans!
Humans are the most common highly developed animal
on earth and although we can defend ourselves much better than most other
animals, there are still things which we are powerless victims to and of which
we can suffer greatly. Unemployment and poverty are such things. Those who have
never been affected by them live in a pink bubble thinking that it's everyone's
own fault if they are. The truth is, unemployment and poverty are caused by
structural flaws of our economic system, capitalism or communism. That's why I
took the time to create a new one. When I wrote about it to the Swiss parliament
about 5 years ago, people did not understand it because the text was too short.
So now I took the time and wrote a 38-page booklet. The book preview is
available as HTML for free and paying members can download the full book as
a PDF-file: Social Capitalism with the variable Schmid-Tax.
March 20'th, 2009:
I added three more paragraphs to my personal page, "Mark Schmid".
I also added a new slogan to Our Slogans.
March 19'th, 2009:
Swiss National stud keeps breeding stallions in a group!
Although the Swiss National stud knows exactly that
I (Mark Schmid)
have been fighting like no other Swiss citizen for years for
the keeping of stallions in groups, they have not told me one word that the breeding
stallions of the Swiss national stud are kept together in a group outside the
breeding season apparently already for a year now. This although up until now,
I have several times and repeatedly tried very actively to work together with and
receive information from the national stud about the keeping of stallions in groups,
have also sent them my newest article on the subject, Stallion Group-Keeping,
as a PDF file at my expense and surely they have also read my former,
38-page, very elaborate article about keeping stallions in groups on the
former Hengstseite (stallion page) in the years 2003-2005.
As justification I was told: "Because we think your opinion is too
extreme in some areas and does not correspond to ours, we do not want
to work together with you."
They liked taking my money though and have repeatedly sent me slimy
Christmas cards, thereby hoping to be able to get even more money out of my
pocket by keeping me as a customer (who they do not want to
work together with).
The responsible people at the national stud, Mrs. Iris Bachman and Mr. Ruedi von
Niederhäusern are obviously either not aware or they simply don't care
that the subject on which we supposedly do not have the same opinion, I
guess that it's castration,
has absolutely nothing to do with the subject at hand,
namely the keeping of stallions in a group instead of in isolation.
For me and for animal protection this of course is very aggravating, as
this makes it impossible for me to actively advertise a good thing with the
example of the stallion-group-keeping of the Swiss national stud. After all,
I cannot set up appointments if one does not want to work together with me.
All the same I am happy that at least there is one stallion-group-keeping
in Switzerland, and it's even at the national stud, the very same place where
Mr. Monty Roberts told me about two years ago that keeping stallions in groups
would not be possible (see: When "Horse Whisperers" promote Violence
- Too bad people don't want to listen to me when I try to tell them something).
Anyway, bravo Swiss national stud for coming up with another needed example!
It's just too bad
that those who run it are such unfriendly and uncooperative people who
cannot accept other opinions. Surely that is not beneficial either for
the national stud nor for the horses.
Concerning my supposedly "extreme" opinion, perhaps what's needed
is an explanation so that it does not seem "extreme" even to
superficial, arrogant and ignorant people anymore. For this I have added
a text to my personal page, Mark Schmid,
which is about 1 page long and which summarizes in a short form my opinion
and almost everything which I say in all of my other texts.
March 7'th, 2009:
During a short stay in Spain I (Mark Schmid)
got to know a man who
owns a little male dog and just recently had him castrated. When I asked him
for his reasons for doing so, he explained to me that he believed his
dog had been severely suffering from his natural male hormones and his sexuality.
Up until now, I have always only heard such reasoning from women, never from a man,
at least not in this clarity and sincerity. So this gave me a lot of food
for thought and pretty much forced me to rewrite the entire text of Animals like Sex,
which was formerly titled "Animals like Sexuality".
- Something which a very angry comment by a woman which was very unhappy with the
previous text didn't do. It seems I must admit that the previous text might
really have been too focused on women only being ignorant and
unknowing about sexual feelings (of males) and their quality for them.
February 12'th, 2009:
Today would be the 200'th birthday of Charles Darwin.
This is worth mentioning because he is the father of the Evolutionary Theory which
I (Mark Schmid)
believe in. Without the Evolutionary Theory there would be no link between
humans and animals, and not even between different animal species for that matter.
Without Charles Darwin's genius Evolutionary Theory we would be leaving things to
religion and superstition alone and animal protection and animal rights would have
much weaker or no rational grounds at all. We would have a much harder stand and
enforcing animal protection and animal rights rationally might even be utterly impossible.
Therefore I dare say, without the Evolutionary Theory of Charles Darwin, there might
not even be an Organization for Animal Dignity. Charles Darwin was a genius and his
Evolutionary Theory is invaluable, both for humanity, as well as for all other species.
Therefore Happy Birthday Mr. Charles Darwin! May you rest in peace!
January 31'st, 2009:
Finally: Our third active Member!
At last! After almost three years we were finally able
to gain a third active member for the Organization for Animal Dignity.
Michael Hrenka supports us not only financially and ideologically, but is also
the first person other than myself (Mark Schmid)
who has contributed a content
made especially for the Organization for Animal Dignity.
In his well-written short article "Why Animal Rights are so important"
he fills a very important gap with which I have not dealt with yet.
Many thanks Michael Hrenka and WELCOME to the inner circle of those who
are willing to not only talk, but also to act and lend a hand! Congratulations
and my highest regards!
Fridolin Steinauer and I (Mark Schmid)
were at the international show jumping
contest CSI in Zürich on the weekend of January 23'rd through 25'th and
distributed a total of about 500 leaflets "Lies in Animal Protection".
Last year we were at the horse Show "Appassionata" on the weekend
of November 22'nd and 23'rd and distributed about 800 equal leaflets.
The text of "What is Castration / Spaying / Neutering?"
was updated.
A new slogan was added to Our Slogans.
January 27'th, 2009:
Due to reader feedback Terrorism and the Middle East was
slightly edited and a few sentences were added to the end.
January 26'th, 2009:
Zionist and US-American Terror in the Middle East!
After starting to understand the atrocities and extent of
the Zionist and US-American injustice, terrorism and fascism committed against
the Palestinian and other surrounding people in the Middle East, I am overwhelmed
and at the same time stunned with anger. This time, about what crimes are committed
against humans, not non-human animals.
In the western world, based on our media reports, I must estimate that
about 90-95% of all media is either owned by Jews, controlled by Jews
or heavily influenced by Jewish, or more correctly, Zionist and US-American
propaganda and ideals. - Boy, have they learned how to be evil from Hitler...
That explains why nobody in the western world has *ANY* empathy or
understanding for Palestinians or Arabs in general. We were all brain washed
by Jewish, or more correctly, by Zionist propaganda from infancy.
Boy, does that make me angry...
To make a difference, let's for once, only once, listen to the other side.
To do that, I included the link to "The Palestinian Think Tank" to Human Links...
Buckle your seat-belt Dorothy, cause Kansas is going "Bye-Bye".
January 15'rd, 2009:
Humans and the Middle East
When Hitler and the Nazis killed and murdered Jews to
get at their possessions, the world stood idly by and watched for several years
until the Americans were finally forced to intervene by external forces.
When Jewish Zionists kill and murder Palestinians to get at their possessions,
the world again stands idly by, this time not just for years, but for decades, without
intervening.
I, for my part, cannot continue to ignore the unright happening in the Middle East,
even if that means taking some risks myself, just as it did to help Jews during
World War II.
Because humans are animals as well, an especially high developed mammal, their
needs and protection are also a subject of the Organization for Animal Dignity.
For this reason I added the article "Terrorism and the Middle East"
to the section "Humans".
Four new slogans were added to Our Slogans.
January 12'th, 2009:
PayPal steals our money!
After we had to learn that PayPal is a criminal organization
which stole our money and refuses to return it or to even answer our emails, the
option to make payments and donations with credit card or through a PayPal account
had to be removed. Read more about it in: PayPal steals our money!
January 10'th, 2009:
Mr. Micheal Hrenka has registered membership and wants to support
our organization. He made a start with a generous donation of 60 Euros! Thank you
very much Michael Hrenka!
We look forward to a hopefully very active cooperation on behalf of animals! :-)
