This is really funny.
Apparently the other day PETA (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals) announced that they want to start calling fish "sea kittens." They hope the name change will "make the vertebrates more endearing to those who would eat them."
"A lot of people don't realize that fish are capable of feeling fear and pain, that they develop relationships with each other, and even show affection by gently rubbing against one another," says Ashley Byrne, PETA's sea kitten campaign co-ordinator. "Knowing that the fish sticks in the school cafeteria are really made out of tortured sea kittens makes most kids want to lose their lunch"
I think it's ridiculous, but hilarious. Perhaps I'll even have some sea kittens for dinner!

Sea kittens?!? Yes, definitely ridiculous. Thanks for the laugh.
I saw this article too - and read it to my seminary class - and talked about what a crazy world we live in -
