The cows are milking themselves. > These things are usually horrible from an animal welfare perspective, so I scanned the article to find out what the catch was. I had to dig deep before I came to this: "But farmers said output generally increased with robots because most cows like being milked more often. (To allow lactation, cows are kept in a near-constant state of impregnation.)". Without any trace of irony, the article has this quote: "The Bordens say the machines allow them to do more of what they love: caring for animals." I guess that is how real Christians care for their fellow beings: by keeping them in a near-constant state of impregnation. -raghu.
