What would the Good Shepard think of factory farms?

This is a very interesting article for those of you who might be interested in animal welfare issues: http://www.matthewscully.com/fear_factories.htm

It appeared in "American Conservative" magazine and I know that there are a lot of people concerned with animal welfare issues who, like me, wouldn't normally read "American Conservative".

I thank George Will for bringing it to my attention in this week's issue of Newsweek where he dicusses the essay in his editorial.

The article is long but it gets better the longer you stick with it.

I just thought I'd pass it along.
