"The fact that living things die does not justify killing for the sake of killng"

Did someone here suggest that it did? If only I knew who it was, why Id just correct them straight away.

Maybe you thought you were making some point by posting that nonsense, and casually attributing it to some phantom poster, but it just didnt work.

I think if you will refer back to my post, you might find that I said specifically, I eat what I kill, intentionally, and I dont kill intentionally unless it serves a purpose. Nonetheless, I make no apologies for killing animals. Its biology, and the natural order of things. I just dont presume to be wiser or more ethical than nature.

Is there anything in those statements that indicates "killing for the sake of killing" is justified, or justifiable?


Gandhi ate as low on the food chain as he could, so that other living things could live with him. This absolute black-and-white thinking is like listening to George W. Bush.

And for all Gandhi's efforts, he still killed, didnt he? Black and white doesnt begin to describe the thinking here.

(I can't believe I am responding to this.)

I cant either. Nor can I make any sense of your response, or find a good reason why youd take the time to post such nonsense.
