RedditIn more proof that modern scientists are bogus and with little merit, British researchers are now claiming that playing fetch with your dog is bad and leads to premature death for your pooch.
As reported by the Daily Telegraph:
Dan Brockman, a professor of small animal surgery at the Royal Veterinary College, has advised owners to use rubber toys or balls instead.
In a new report, Prof Brockman catalogued serious injuries caused by dogs being stabbed by sticks they have rushed to collect for their masters.
“When I see people throwing sticks for their dogs in the park I just get so frustrated,” he said. “I want to go and tell them to stop.”
Prof Brockman’s report, which was co-authored by Zoe Halfacree, another expert in small animals from the Royal Veterinary College, details cases of dogs being paralysed after a stick stabbed their spinal cord.
That’s a bunch of laughable hogwash, good friends. Here’s the fact of the matter. Since they were created 6,000 years ago by the hands of the almighty, dogs have been fetching items large and small. Growing up I had the pleasure of owning a small poodle, courtesy of mother, and a rot, courtesy of Dad.
Not once did I see one of those dogs go down with injury from playing fetch, nor have life shortened in any way. I’m sure the case is the same for you as well.
So what we have here is just another case of a scientist trying to push off their ‘findings’ on us with a bunch of mumbo-jumbo, when logic dictates that these findings are as left field than evolution or contrived endosymbiois.

It’s those secularists trying to make everyone as miserable as them. They’re taking their lack of faith in the Almighty out on everyone else by trying to kill of any source of simple joy.

Tell me, is it your goal to try and shoot down every modern revelation, because it wasn’t in the bible, without thinking about it at all?
Does it not make sense to you that if you throw POINTY STICKS and the dogs bite them hard (often times you would need to use force to take an object out of a dog’s mouth), there’s a CHANCE they’ll get injured? Don’t rubber toys sound a lot safer and sensical to you?

i would have to say that yeah i would think it would harm the life span, such as chicken bones would do to a dog, but then again salt kills snails/slugs where as your stomach acid eats through steel

So you’re saying, if I threw a sharp pointy stick at my dog, and it accidentally hit him in the eye, he’d be completely fine?

you guys talk about hatred however this site is full of hate propaganda… against jews, blacks, librals, homos, asians, people who respect science like come on… views like yours is the reason there is so much hatred in the world. religion has caused more kaos, death, prejudice and war then anything else on the planet. and untill people can learn to start accepting people for who they are rather then what they believe then nothings going to change…

Is it your goal to turn people away from God? I’m sorry to hear that, I really am. I’ll pray for your soul so that it may be saved, you be welcomed back into God’s good graces, and some happiness to come into your life.
God Bless.

Heh, typical religious propaganda. I didn’t even say anything against God, I just criticized “Dan Nordren,” but you choose to ignore whatever made sense in my reply and turn it irrelevantly into an issue of God.

Didn’t say anything about God, huh?
“Tell me, is it your goal to try and shoot down every modern revelation, because it wasn’t in the bible, without thinking about it at all?”
Sorry to use this language, but I’m sure as heck certain that everything is related to God, and the Bible is His word. It’s been noted that secularists typically try to suck the joy out of the world that God gave to us. The so-called scientific reasoning behind “Playing fetch injuring dogs” is extremely unsound; a dog can just as easily be injured on a ball or rubber chew toy (choking on it) as a stick, and the alleged correlation between a dog picking p a stick and spinal injury is confounding. This is just a case of someone confusing correlation with causation, and these injuries can be chalked up to simple, yet unfortunate, accidental happenstance. It takes someone who dislikes the simple joy of playing fetch the classic American way, with a stick, to come up with something so logically unsound. So, all that’s left is the guy wants to be an affront to God and the joy he’s provided by creating such loving companions for us in Canine kind.
God Bless.

Alrighty then, I’ll let you continue saying science is the devil (and also everything that was invented/created in the last 2000 years, like USA and its American ways).
If (hopefully not) someone you or Mr. Dan Nordren cherish gets sick, or hurt, or gets whatever ailment modern science has a definite cure for that is deadly without, I’d like to see you just pray and not use modern science. Anything else would be hypocritical. And don’t go fishing for stories where modern science failed a fool-proof operation, because it’s the exception and not the rule.
Wait, you’re already using a computer and the internet. If you’re playing the “picking faults out of a mostly good thing” game, I can do the same about your infallible bible, but I won’t. Seriously though, comparing a sharp stick’s danger to a toy’s danger (both could be swallowed, only one can injure) is ridiculous, and even IF the article held no merit AT ALL, it’s still ridiculous to point that thing out out of all things when, once again, the bible could be much more easily ‘stabbed at’. “It can’t, because it’s the word of God,” you say? I say everything in the world is the word of God, then, because he created everything in it.
Ciao, I’ve had enough trying to make sense here, have a fun life.

Wow, hohoho. Reverend Brandon disproves a bogus scientific claim, and instead of accepting it you resort to placing a magical hex on he and Mr. Nordgren. You’re a person with much hatred and malevolence in the heart, friend. You really should see a counselor to deal with your anger. I cannot believe you’d invoke witchcraft in your rage that science yet again is shown to be wrong and with an agenda.

God created us with the capacity to learn and increase our knowledge, so we may slowly discover more about him through what people call ‘science’. God is God of order and wonder, and our discoveries are nothing compared to his omnipotent power.
