[RPKESQ]

We all kill things.

There is no escaping it. Every day we each kill millions of living creatures. Drive a car? You're smashing bugs. Use mouthwash? You're killing germs. Eat beef, fish, chicken?Killer. Wear leather items? Killer. Wear cotton clothing? Millions of acres of animal habitat has been ruined by cotton cultivation, killing animals again. There is no difference between the germ and the deer. Both are equal in natures eyes. Man applies more "value" to the deer, but that is based on emotion only, not rationality. Man is part of nature and cannot escape it, but how you fit in can be controlled.

It is not the killing that is distasteful. It is the how and why that is important. Need to kill to feel like a man? That is so sad. Need a trophy? How very sad.

What you kill (or support killing) should be judged by how and why. For example: I no longer eat sushi that contains endangered species. I no longer eat factory farmed animals. You have a choice.
