Reply #35: I did not condemn hunting [View All]

in general or being carnivorous or omnivorous.

I acknowledge that eating animals is a natural lifestyle and that animals - humans included - are likely to get satisfaction from both the act and the consumption or it would have ceased to be a behavior. There's likely to be differences on what that satisfaction' is depending on sentience and other biological factors.

Nevertheless, killing to live is distinctly different from living to kill which is what non-consumption-oriented slaughter - whose sole purpose is the satisfaction of the killer - is.

Tell me, if someone is killing with no consmption, what is the motivation behind it if not psychological reward - i.e. satisfaction or pleasure ?
