Lesson 5: Ignorance is not bliss.

All the past lessons have somewhat explained our nations denial and ignorance.
Lesson 5: Ignorance is NOT bliss. 
At least not for the animals.
A lot of people sit around and relax, eating veal or steak without considering how or where his meal was killed. And if we do consider it, we may hope it was done fast and easy. Why? We have been trained to not think about this. Most people know very little about animal abuse, puppy mills, factory farms, fur, or leather. And the farm folk of today will do anything to conceal the truth.
As I said in lesson three, teaching children the truth will benefit the adults of tomorrow. But, every year, millions of kids are handed sugar-coated pictures of the truth. They are coloring books, distributed by the National Dairy Council, showing pictures of happy young cows innocently grazing in a field. All the animals are happy and healthy. And that myth will be embedded in children's heads their whole lives - unless they are taught otherwise.
And what does ignorance do to the animals? Humans will slaughter animals more and more because the majority of us don't know what happens behind slaughterhouse walls.
