Is this church brother right or wrong? What do u think?

Hi Sandy, no offense to your Church brother, but I think Jesus would tell you something totally different. |

I pray for children or people dying of cancer or other diseases.
I pray for the animals sometimes more than people but I believe this is my calling.
I just don't see cruelty in any form.
I just called the humane society on a dog that was starving in a fence no shelter no water and I am calling again monday.
They threw a little dry food and walked away but this animal has scars from being beaten.
It is to bad that they don't have more animal cops like on animal planet.
I think that is just big cities though.

Thanks, I don't know what the beastie's name is, it was just such a cute squinty-kitty picture, and I'm of the same coloring so I chose it as my avatar.
