They will keep killing bears so they can make silly hats
Quote:Army will keep iconic bearskin hats worn by Queen's Guard after MoD rejected fake version proposed by animal rights group Peta amid calls for total ban on real fur sales
The British Army will keep bearskin hats as they are after chucking out a fake fur version proposed by Peta.
The Ministry of Defence said the iconic caps worn by the Queen's Guard's will still be made from Canadian wild black bears in future.
Ministers slammed the fabric prototype put forward by the animal rights activists for only meeting one of the five requirements to be considered as an alternative.
They said the products had 'unacceptable rates of water shedding and performed poorly on the visual assessment'.

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
