Last night Mr. Bell and I saw the documentary "Blackfish". I have never been described as an animal activist nor an animal hater. I do, however, believe that God created each creature in their own unique design, but all with behavioral tendencies. I found the film frustrating. I've been to SeaWorld. I've enjoyed the Shamu show. I have also see whales in the wild off the coast. They are massive, beautiful creatures. I don't want to create an opinion for you- I just encourage you to see the documentary. It is heart-breaking. It is also thought-provoking. Honestly- I'm not sure I want to return to a theme park who has animals in captivity that they bought or stole, mostly out of fear that we might witness another tragic event when their natural instincts kick in and they attack those they feel threatened by. I don't know- but I do know is that the Killer Whale is one of God's massive designs. I love His creativity!
Then God said, "Let the waters teem with swarms of living creatures, and let birds fly above the earth in the open expanse of the heavens." God created the great sea monsters and every living creature that moves, with which the waters swarmed after their kind, and every winged bird after its kind; and God saw that it was good. (Genesis 1:20-21 NASB)

Brian told me about it and I refuse to watch it. I couldn't believe what they do to them and it definitely made me never want to go to sea world again. I cried when he told me that they separate the babies! So sad.
