he bible talks about killing animals for sacrifices constantly. So, I'd have to say that PITA is not represented in the bible at all. Humans are, but not PITA.
According to the bible, man is supposed to dominate animals. Not throw pig's blood on celebrities. Bob Barker is a clown BTW.

- you are misinterpreting "dominion" -- it is often read in the sense that a pastoralist or farmer would give it. The passage you quoted is addressed to exactly those types of people (tribes). i.e. kill for sacrifice and food, but manage the living things of the Earth.
but we are detracting from Wayne's issue here...
