For those who hold to the false notion that man is not totally depraved, not spiritually dead, but instead is just spiritually sick or injured, just stubbed his toe spiritually in the Garden, or that all have been at least touched in some way by the Holy Spirit but have only rejected Him, just read the story below. The people tht committed this act of absolute cruelty and laughed about it have absolutely no light in them, they are darknesss, dark as a dungeon.

Man arrested for burning kitten on grill
July 17, 2002 Posted: 5:15 AM EDT (0915 GMT))
LIBERTY, Missouri (AP) -- A man was arrested Tuesday for allegedly burning
a kitten on a barbecue grill as several other people stood around and
watched in amusement.
A witness pulled the scorched, 7-week-old tabby from the hot coals, but it
was severely injured and had to be put to death, police said.
"They kept saying, `Meow, meow,' and they were poking at it with a stick,"
said Sherry Scott, who burned her hand grabbing the kitten.
Charles C. Benoit, 24, was charged with animal abuse, punishable by up to
five years in prison and a $5,000 fine. He was jailed on $10,000 bail.
Jim Roberts, spokesman for the Clay County prosecutor's office, said he
does not expect anyone else to be charged, because no witnesses could
identify the others.
Scott said that on Friday night, she saw 10 or 12 people at the barbecue
grill in the courtyard of the apartment complex where she lives. Scott said
she asked what they were cooking, and they said it was a cat. She said the
group taunted her, daring her to rescue the cat.
She said the group scattered when she threatened to call police. She said
she pulled the kitten from where it had been shoved into the coals at the
back of the grill. Its tail, whiskers, fur, eyes and throat were scorched.
"I called him Lucky because I thought I got him out of there just in time,"
she said.
Scott said she and other residents stayed up Friday night trying to nurse
the kitten with an eye dropper of milk. But animal control officers decided
that because of its respiratory injuries and inability to swallow food, it
had to be destroyed.
"If you would have seen him, you would have cried," said Sheri Simpson, one
of the residents who helped care for the kitten.
