Pastor Accused of Dumping Puppies from his TruckVia: The Florida Times-Union

February 8, 2006

Police arrested Vincent Jerome Kohn, 48, from The Anointed Church of God
about 4:30 p.m. Sunday after a couple's complaint about catching a man abandoning several dogs in a popular dumping area near their home on Turknett Road.

Westside residents Debbie and Robert Tiencken confronted Kohn and called
police, who helped retrieve two of six dumped puppies the couple wasn't able to recover at first, according to police and the witnesses.

"He didn't even want to touch the dogs because he had on a pair of latex gloves like you wash dishes with. ... He was actually slinging them into the woods," Debbie Tiencken recalled.

She said the man kept asking her and her husband not to call police and then finally picked up one of the dogs before he drove off. But the couple got the tag information on the man's truck.

Police then traced the tag to a residence about a block away. Once there, officers said they found a malnourished mother dog chained in the backyard along with at least four or five other malnourished puppies running around.

Animal Control officials took all the dogs and police charged Kohn, of the 6200 block of 118th Street, with a felony offense of animal cruelty and a misdemeanor charge of abandoning a sick animal to die.
"It doesn't matter who he is or what his position is," Debbie Tiencken said. "Nobody should do that."

Kohn got out of jail on $10,000 bail Monday, records show. No one answered the phone at his home Tuesday or returned a message left at his church on West Church and Cleveland streets, where the sign out front reads: "Knowing God is not only seeing his works but also learning his ways."

It's in the bible, humans are the superior species on this planet, and all of the animals are to serve us. And those who serve us are subjected to our rule, be it good or bad.

The opposite is true in Buddhism. All living creatures are considered sentient beings. The Buddhist doctrine of regarding all animals with kindness, compassion, and respect. That is why most (but not all) Buddhists are vegetarians. One of the basic Five Precepts is not to injure, harm, or kill a living thing with feelings unless it is for self preservation. A good explanation of this was articulated in the Newbery Award winning children's book "The Cat Who Went To Heaven" by Elizabeth Coatsworth (we Buddhists believe that even dogs, cats, hamsters, and parrots can get into heaven! - thats something most Christians vehemently deny.)

Yes, cruel insensitive attitude of most people who call themselves Christian is reason why so many people don't show any interest of becoming Christian.

It is so sad to know that many Christian only care about people and care less about animal suffering.
Speaking about bright side, there are many Christian organizations support Animal Welfare/Animal Rights organizations and these organizations are reflection of true faith in God.
The heart of wicked is cruel.
People who never show sensitivity toward animals are wicked people.

Right back at ya,



God blessed them. God said to them, 'Be fertile and become many. Fill the land and conquer it. Dominate the fish of the sea, the birds of the sky, and every beast that walks the land.

God said, 'Behold, I have given you every seedbearing plant on the face of the earth, and every tree that has seedbearing fruit. It shall be to you for food.

For every beast of the field, every bird of the sky, and everything that walks the land, that has in it a living soul, all plant vegetation shall be food.' It remained that way.

Oh, one more thing bloodgism...you are still a scumbag.

P.S.,
Bloodgism-
Since this is a spirituality thread, I must remind you that you are violating Romans 14. Please read and rejoice...

Accept him whose faith is weak, without passing judgment on disputable matters. One man's faith allows him to eat everything, but another man, whose faith is weak, eats only vegetables. The man who eats everything must not look down on him who does not, and the man who does not eat everything must not condemn the man who does, for God has accepted him. Who are you to judge someone else's servant? To his own master he stands or falls. And he will stand, for the Lord is able to make him stand.

Bloodgism, you's just got pwned again!!!!! You are a sinner because you judge those who eat meat, and attempt to disuade them! Bloosum's going to hell in a handbag!!!!
