"and man shall have dominion over the Earth and all it's creatures"
I'm paraphrasing, but you get the gist.
"shall not kill" was intended toward a fellow man, not animals.
I find that most ministers and priests have no objection to hunting and a surprising number hunt themselves. My uncle is an ordained minister and has done much hunting and packs a concealed weapon quite a bit.
I'm somewhat surprised at the nuns behavior on this one.
Exactly. We had a place in Howard Co (Catholic Monastery) that we lost due to some ass that goose hunted the place. It was lost due to the gunfire awakening the Priests' to be, not the hunting. We even had a Priest come up from Fl every year to gun hunt the deer gun season, he probably has soul rights to the place now.We only bow hunted the place but they voted on it and decided to have no hunting at all. But everyone of the Priest I talked to supported hunting but not on thetheir grounds thanks to some mindlessgoose hunters. They wanted their piece and quiet.
