Default RE: Harvesting vs Killing

IMO.....Using the word "harvest" is born from the need to make ones self feel less guilt over the act of taking an animals life. Only humans and anoccasional housedog with bladder dysfunction feel the emotion of guilt. The act of hunting is the second most natural act IMO. I think you know what the first is. People who buy their meat in a store KILLED the cow or pig or chicken just as much as I killed those deer. One should never feel any kind of guilt for participating in the natural order. The religion of HUNTING is perhaps the most pure of any that ever existed. As for choosing your words to show respect for the animal...deer do not speak english or any other human language....and dead deer don't hear either. Do what makes you feel better if you must, but do not feel the need to mince words to please any other person. If another person finds "killing" deer objectionable...they should check-out now because no human on earth can survive without killing some living thing.
