I feel empathy for the cat. They can do what they wish with the former owner -- he's a piece of inhumanity (assuming he's sane).

That's exactly the way I feel about others such as Goebbels or Attila. At some point you lose your connection to humanity and while I recognize the form as human there is no longer a soul (or whatever you want to call it) in there.

Most, if not all, of the world's problems have been brought on by those who lack a soul. Greed, lust...the whole list...basically come down to "I got mine and I want more, screw you."

Ted Stevens wasn't that bad.
