Other then the belief that the quote is being misapplied, no.You have an issue with St. Francis???
What state are you living in?I agree that hunting is not necessary simply because we don’t need meat to survive, we don’t need to thin the herds (other than not wanting our flowers eaten) and to reduce Lyme disease (which I had).
I have used them a couple of times, and my dad used to do a lot of trapping when he was a kid. I am not a trapper, but a lot of people make a living that way.This is a good post! I would have to say that steel leg hold traps are completely, and totally inhumane. I would hope for them to be completely outlawed and I would hope that no Catholic would ever consider using one.
As I said before, deer are the 3rd most commonly struck object in my state.What state are you living in?
The reality is that deer are a significant hazard to cars on the road in many places. Their herds are just too big.
Perhaps you missed the times tht passage was referred to on this and the thread on Ehics of Fur and how more than one person has said tat passage is not supposed to be taken literally. Please ead the notes/commentary on that passage.Well, your statement was “always wrong”
And that means forever. For all time.
You should be prepared to explain why God took action that was wrong.
Then you also need to explain why God ordered Peter to kill and eat. (Acts 10:13)
When killing animals is “always wrong”
Maybe you missed the part in Genesis where we were given animals for food. (Genesis 9:3).Perhaps you missed the times tht passage was referred to on this and the thread on Ehics of Fur and how more than one person has said tat passage is not supposed to be taken literally.

As far as I know St Francis never told anyone that hunting or eating meat was wrong.You have an issue with St. Francis???
He referred to a particular passage and I responded on that. This thread is not about eating or not eating meat. I will respondon that onsuch a thread.Maybe you missed the part in Genesis where we were given animals for food. (Genesis 9:3).
Actually we do not–and this is perhaps another thread–and has been another thread.This is ridiculous. We have omnivorous physiology.
And you do not find these inhumane?I have used them a couple of times, and my dad used to do a lot of trapping when he was a kid. I am not a trapper, but a lot of people make a living that way.
I’m in NJ and lived in the Poconos ¶. When hunting season starts they run out in the roads. I’ve seen hunters near roadways (one was chasing a deer along the guardrail).What state are you living in?

Yes, a lot of times it is* the hunters *who are chasing them into the roadways…I’m in NJ and lived in the Poconos ¶. When hunting season starts they run out in the roads. I’ve seen hunters near roadways (one was chasing a deer along the guardrail).
Many are left maimed with arrows and bullets.

Hunters are not allowed close to roads. How would you know about hunters “chasing deer into roads” -you don’t hunt?Yes, a lot of times it is* the hunters *who are chasing them into the roadways…
Not really. The animals are killed ASAP.And you do not find these inhumane?
Maybe you missed the*** preceeding ***parts in Genesis???Maybe you missed the part in Genesis where we were given animals for food. (Genesis 9:3).
Just because one person does it doesn’t mean we all do it.I’m in NJ and lived in the Poconos ¶. When hunting season starts they run out in the roads. I’ve seen hunters near roadways (one was chasing a deer along the guardrail).

Do you mean they are not killed outright and left wounded? hat er the hunters doing near the roadways? Isn’t that dangerous even for people passing by?I’m in NJ and lived in the Poconos ¶.

Yes, and it is illegal.…hat er the hunters doing near the roadways? Isn’t that dangerous even for people passing by?
In a steel leghold trap??? No they ARE NOT!!! They suffer terribly and some even gnaw off their own legs to free themselves. They suffer for hours, in pain, until the trapper comes and finishes them off.Not really. The animals are killed ASAP.
