While I was preparing for my upcoming Christmas sermon series, I was doing some research on sheep and here's an interesting fact that I would like to share with you:
Sheep's Reputation: Sheep are stupid, defenseless and harmless creatures that mope about on hillsides doing not very much. They are good for two things: being eaten and producing wool.
Reality: Sheep are actually surprisingly intelligent, with impressive memory and recognition skills. They build friendships, stick up for one another in fights, and feel sad when their friends are sent to slaughter. They are also one of the most destructive creatures on the planet.
So that's sheep! They're not dumb at all! They don't just follow whoever's hand that feeds them and they're quite smart. So why in this referendum about electoral reform happening in British Columbia are some of us living up to the stereotype?
