Doesn't sound so good now, does it?

The Apostate's devil-may-care attitude put into a different perspective:

I'm going to stop emphasizing to all who will listen that this world is a rotten place because people aren't safe from wild animals. I'm going to act as if we are and refuse to play into the talons, teeth and brute strength of the animals that might like to eat us. You know why? Because part of living a full life is going wherever you want, including big animal cages, shark-infested waters and when you're there, it's really cool. Being around dangerous animals is not an unfortunate fact of life, threat to one's safety or irresponsible behavior. It's a pleasurable experience to be up close and personal with a big, dangerous animal. It's a liberating experience to stand between a female grizzly and her cubs, or to swim with great white sharks. And people should be able to do these things for their own sake, not just when we find ourselves in the wrong place, at the wrong time, mistook a sign in the forest or didn't realize that we swam past the continent shelf into the hunting grounds of large sea animals, but because while we're here, we'd like to live a little. And fuck the consequences.

And while you're at it, socialize the medical costs because we're going to need it...
