The reason that hunting and fishing is fun is because we are tapping into a natural instinct. To be part of the predator/prey relationship. Man is no more "sinful" in nature than nature itself.
What are your beliefs?

I agree 100% with your thoughts here.
A gap between your thought process and mine seems to be that you believe Man's ability to make a moral decision, in regards to what is right and wrong, is natural, while I do not.
Again, I will ask- What other creature in nature has ever been proven to have this ability? There are none that I can see.
Thus, we now have a clear separation between man and the natural world.
Sinful â now thereâs a label for ya
One man â defining the thoughts and/ or actions of another (not directly aimed at you HH)
Depending on which particular part of the world one hails, oneâs thoughts/ actions could be deemed sinful... or perfectly acceptable
Hellâ¦, for that matter â simply depending on the circumstances, oneâs thoughts/ actions would be labeled sinful... or not
And never have I found as judgmental a place â as church

Often times a cat will pounce and kill, then simply walk away from their prize because tastier food awaits them from a can
I have a cat (donât ask me why⦠and to this day I still donât know how) â anywayâ¦.
He kills mice, moles, snakes, birds (even tried to take on a raccoon once but lost that fight) â but never eats themâ¦
Instead heâll bring them to me, drop them off, then walk awayâ¦.never touching them again
No clue why
Heâs not hungry⦠heâs fixed⦠and is the most laid back animal imaginable

Moral.., and right/ wrong - more labels made by man to define man
The hypocrisy of it

The cat is a hunter by nature. What he's doing is two things. First, he's showing off his hunting skills, and secondly he's trying to reciprocate your kind act of feeding him every day. That, or he's just nut's like my cats.

"Beliefs" So those beliefs can make them kill because they think they only survive if they kill. Like animals.
Then perhaps your hang up is not viewing man's actions from the purity of grace you automatically give to animals .
dipshit you can't have it both ways and call one evil.
Morals, labels, hypocrisy- more divisions between man and the natural world.
Could someone please tell me, What other creatures in the natural world attain these attributes or assets?
