A Sincere Apology by Former Ronald McDonald
%:%:%:%:%:%:%:%:%:%:%:%:%:%:%:%:%:%:%:%:%:%:%
"I was doing a safety show for kids, when I
found a memo that said, `The purpose of the
Ronald McDonald Safety Show is to increase the
awareness of McDonald's goods, services and
products.' I thought to myself, `Wait a minute
pal, I thought the purpose was to help children.'
That was the end of it. I let it go. . . .
"I very sincerely would like to apologize
to all HINDUISM TODAY readers and to all of
the vegetarian parents who may be having a
tougher time now making their children
understand the necessity and the urgency of
a nonviolent, vegetarian diet because of some
of my actions. . . .
"Overall, I'm sorry that I did it and now I
have to make amends by speaking out against
what I did. . . .
"My wish for all the meat-eaters is that they
will grow to understand that they can live
healthier, happier, holier lives by not
participating in the senseless slaughter of
innocent animals and that they're giving up
a whole world world of wonderful food for
something which is dead and can only fill
them with sorrow and disease ultimately."
