Let's see, non-thinking, or thinking your thoughts. I'll take non-thinking over BS any day.

I'm in no doubt that this statement is one from which you derive great meaning. Alas it translates poorly into the vernacular of a simple country lad.
Yes. Alas.

Mans’ brain could be hardwired by custom into this custodial ethic of
“dominion” that has biblical origins such as:
Genesis: KJV
And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.
Or, perhaps the moral need to care for critters is mans’ conceptual interpretation of biological imperatives put in place by evolution. Assuming that a species evolves to be sustaining, then we can postulate that species diversity sustains any particular species. Has this been scientifically proven?

There's no rabbit season in east Tx, we can kill them all year round. I'm feeling a bit primal too, think maybe I'll go camping this weekend and have some bunny stew. In all honesty, more people should get out the city once in awhile and remind themselves what it means to be an alpha predator. It's good for the soul imo. The one thing I've never understood in an Atheist who argues against hunting, is what morality exists in humans that doesn't exist in the animal kingdom? If we're just mammals with fancy mud huts, then so what? Morality is an illusion since there isn't a universal set, morals are very real though. If my moral code allows me to kill and eat an animal, and [your] code tells you that's wrong, then so be it. There's no need to hate one another over it.

Didn't you read the OP? This topic is not about killing animals for food.

I responded on the first page, when I logged in earlier no one was around to talk with and there aren't any new threads I'm interested in. Hope that's okay with you Obvious Leo, I really do.

1) You asked what sort of person, and I told you Ernest Hemingway. Can't face the truth?
2) I have no trouble the concept of "endangered species" The WWF keeps a list of them and the African Buffalo, and ME (humans) are not on the list. I think you might be the one to have a problem of the concept.
3) fuck off and finish you burger, and hot dog you fucking moron, and reflect where the meat came from.
None of those animals were killed for food. Anyone who enjoys killing is a sick bastard. Ernest Hemmingway makes it right? The man was a raging alcoholic with a tiny penis. I see you posted a photo with one of his penis substitutes.

Ernest Hemingway is your trump card?? Who gives a fuck about Ernest Hemingway the "sport" hunter, anyway? Simply more cowardly animals, that have become that which they fear, and far too ignorant to understand it.x

As to this, it would seem that your reading comprehension is at an all time extreme low.

We are so mean to each other and to other beings in the animal kingdom.
We need more empathy - less hate. IF that is possible.
Guess it starts with me...

Funny how the Trump boys are so manly as to got on African hunting trips to kill unarmed endangered species, but run in the other direction when it comes to joining the military and going after a real enemy.

When you consider the people who admire and would vote for Donald Trump are the same as those who consider the pants shi**ing, draft dodging, pedophile Ted Nugent an American patriot, we begin to understand the depth of the sickness that is sweeping this country.
How the scum of the Earth ever got in the position to shape the future of this great country I will never comprehend, but the truly rational, responsible and level headed citizens who love their country must stomp this cretinous, disgusting, right wing mutated, disease into the ground before it is too late.

Why do you yanks use 'draft-dodging' as an insult? It's a fucking compliment. Something to be admired.

As a retired 30-year Marine Corps reservist who made four trips to Asia as a Marine but missed combat by two weeks, I want my fellow Utah veterans to know that Donald Trump applied for and received five military draft deferments, thereby avoiding any military service.
And now he wants to be commander in chief. A basic rule of American military service is that we are not obligated to obey any illegal order, yet he has said he would issue them, such as torturing prisoners and killing the enemies' families.
His military record and knowledge stands for itself.

Boy, I bet you were pissed off that you missed 'combat' (i.e. raping/murdering women and children). If that's true about Trump then it's a huge mark in his favour. Plus, how many rich, white people went? Rich, white people can 'dodge' anything they want to in your country. Shame he and his vile sons don't mind murdering other animals though.
