>>18299722The goat was borne to the mountains. 6,000 years of our indoctrination does not in my eyes negate the fact that this is a beast nearer to the heavens than, say, the dog, or the cat. I can rape the dog, the cat, and the human because there are no secrets between us, we were borne on the same plane, and shared the same ideals.
When man domesticated dog, the dynamic was of like and like mutually agreeing on a strategy to maximize pleasure.
But to domesticate the goat, man had to climb a mountain. He shed his idols and other jetsam during the ascent, and throughout images of the goat were seated into his exposed soul.
In the case of the dog, a man carrying plenty of fat and meat looked down, and surrounding the dog he saw mud. In the case of the goat, a man humbled by the elements looked up towards the ridge, and surrounding the goat he saw sky and light. Perhaps in his state so stripped of ego, he in that light saw God.
This memory is carried by the descendants of both parties.
Thus I cannot in good consciousness submit a goat to the law of the swamp and brothel. If I were to have sex with one, I would ask for consent.
