Quote of the Day

My prayer for you is that your love for others will grow more and more, and at the same time keep on growing in Christ, To see clearly the difference between right and wrong, and to be clean in your heart. ~ Philippians 1:9-10

hunting: maybe not so bad

This is -- for me -- a huge policy shift. I've decided that hunting, which I have loathed without hesitation all my life, may be a good thing.
As I see it, there are four choices.

  1. Don't eat meat.
  2. Eat meat that is part of the industrial food chain with all the drugs, chemicals, fuel-costs, and animal misery that that involves.
  3. Eat meat that is part of the natural food chain that has a healthy diet and 100% outdoor access and a pretty good life until the bullet arrives.
  4. Eat meat that I raise here on my own land where I can make sane choices about what the animal eats and how it lives before it gets into my freezer.
Since I'm not going to do #1, options #3 or #4 seem like the only responsible options.
