    Well, Ron Paul will never be president, and hopefully enough of us will have the good sense to defeat John McCain on November 4 and keep Sarah Palin out of the vice presidency.

    And hopefully, you will read scripture with a heart led by the holy spirit, and you will compare what scripture says about the unborn, and what scripture says about wolves, and you will come to the realization that abortion needs to be stopped, not hunting.

    I am opposed to 100% of all abortions for any reason.

    However, that is not the topic of this thread. Please stay on topic.

    I think I can challenge you on this, Ken. You say more against hunting & Palin, than you do abortion. And you have entered in a few unsolicited rants against Palin in other threads.

    Which is worse ? Abortion or hunting wolves ?

    I have stated my opposition to abortion over the years on this board way more than I have talked about the senseless killing of wildlife for non-sustenance, non-self defense reasons.

    Again, if you want to start a topic about KenH's stance on abortion, then go right ahead. However, this is not that thread. I doubt there will be much interest in such a thread since I am not running for public office.

    I doubt that, but hey, I'll give you a chance to start over, today, and I'll keep track. Between you and I, a quick archive search does not support your contention.

    You started a thread on how precious wolves are. I'm challenging you to show me how wolves are any where near the stature of babies, in God's eye.

    You're making me want to fly up to Alaska and give it a try! I think it would be fun to shoot some wolves this way and do the local population a service by eliminating some of these pests. Maybe I can get together with a few of my friends to organize a trip. I know one that would really enjoy the marksmanship challenge - he'd go for the one shot one kill approach - and another that might consider it a door gunner flash back - he'd love to do it with a machine gun and maximum fire power! It's probably too expensive, just a dream, and against somebody's rules somewhere but it I could pull it off I'd be happy to post pictures here for everyone's enjoyment.

    On the subject of animals, Genesis 3:21 tells me that the Lord God made coats of skins. I believe these were from animals that had been killed. I don't believe that animals should be killed needlessly, but I will admit that I've sprayed Japanese beetles, termites, wasp and other insects to kill them. Wolves will over populate an area and in Alaska several times have wolves attacked pets and threatened the owners. If the wolf can't be controlled by hunting from the ground then other means are needed. Yet the skin should be used and not left to rot. Sarah Palin has enough problems if someone wants to look beyound the lipstick.

    I view dominion as a responsibility entrusted by the Almighty. God killed the animals for a reason and not for sport or target practice. So yes, we kill for food etc... but I think there is great responsibility with dominion. Now is she over the line I believe is a question between her and her God.




    Ge 1:26 And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.
    27 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.
    28 And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth.

    Wolves Preferred to Babies

    Based on some of the comments posted here, maybe the way to stop abortion is to define the unborn baby as a wolf cub. Ridiculous? Yes, but no worse than some of the weak defense posted by some in their diatribes about Sarah Palin hunting wolves from a helicopter or airplane.

    Again I say, and will continue to say, if a person supports one who publicly supports abortion, then that person is as guilty of committing an offense against God as the pro-abortion activist is.

    I really want to wolf hunting now! I think they're edible! We could get rid of the pests and feed a few people in the process.

    Believe it or not LeBuick I agree with you on this, there is a great responsibility that goes with our dominion over the earth. Which is why we must allow the game and fish professionals in Alaska make this policy not feel good animal "lovers" who don't know what they are talking about. The wolves don't have the ability to regulate their numbers or limit their take of the Elk and Caribou populations which is what this hunting is really about. It is about sound, 21st century, wildlife management practices, about ensuring that there are Caribou and Wolves there for future generations to enjoy.

    In the United States we have a constitutional right to bear arms, thats great, But we do not have a constitutional right to hunt. Hunters and Fisherman, and Trappers have for years accepted and followed sound wildlife management practices. Controlled by our governments and run by people educated in wildlife management we have accepted seasons, bag limits, method controls, and other limits to our taking of game. When called for all out bans have been accepted and followed, sanctuary areas have been created, and quotas for the number of licenses issued have been followed.

    But when we take wildlife management out of the hands of professionals and allow limits to be set because the animals look like the dog you had when you were a kid or because the video looks bloody then we are dooming the entire process. If you don't like the idea of killing wolves then don't do it. If you don't like the video, don't watch. But unless you want to get an advanced degree in fish and game management, move to Alaska and take a government job, and then come up with a better idea then why don't you let those people who know what is going on make the call.

    Well, I have friends on the mission field in China who have eaten dog. I've eaten Zebra and other African wild game, I've had Kangaroo meat, and I'd eat wolf meat if ever I had the chance. So he's not obfuscating...:tonofbricks:

    These wack job defenders of the wild life fund probably would never vote for a Republican anyway. So, what's the big deal?

    I'd like to go on an aerial rattlesnake hunt. That'd take quite a shot, I suppose. And they're just about as creepy as wolves......

    I have philosphical problems granting rights to anything other than humans. I mean if wolves have the right not to be shot don't they have the right not to be incarcerated in zoos? I can't see granting sorta/kinda/maybe rights to any(thing)one.

    I've eaten dog meat - in a different culture - and I see no reason that wolf - being a dog - wouldn't be just as good.

    Ok, you think Palin is "despicable" for supporting this right to hunt wolves aerially. Then what do you think of Obama for supporting the right to abortion, even the grotesque method of partial birth abortion? I mean, surely Obama is worse than "despicable" since I assume you think babies are worth more than wolves? And the next question, why on earth would you send money to Obama, let alone vote for him, since he's worse than despicable? [personal attack deleted]
