The definition of the word HUNT is “to chase or search for game or other wild animals for the purpose of catching or killing.” One is defined as catching or killing and the other as keeping from injury. We have given an awful exhibition of slaughter and destruction, which may serve as a warning to all mankind.

We are not people who are interested in discussing animal rights, as in, the right of sentient nonhumans to not be used by humans for potential profit, for sport or for lunch. Maybe "humane" is already on its way out for the folks trying to convince themselves and others that humane killing isn't an oxymoron.

Cain=farmer=evil murderer; Abel=slaughtered animals=victim/good son. In fact, I'd even permit them to not ever kill anyone, but rather to eat the kill of another that has been quietly decomposing for a day or two, as many carnivores do. We simply cannot survive without killing them! Net message? Now, who's a carnivore?

Kristof, who takes note of the trend represented by the animal welfare proposition on the ballot in California this fall. The fact that geese mate for life, and that the mate of the poor goose that was slaughtered would step forward, was enough to make me swear off meat forever, if I hadn’t already. We know that animals suffer as well.
