If we weren't living in a 'civilised' society, you would not have thought twice about it. Morals are based upon your own beliefs, which have been pumped into you since you could understand the world. I personally have morals, but think I shouldn't.

If you can afford food and have access to it, hunting for food is wrong.

Why is hunting wrong if you have access to food at a store? The meat that I buy at a store still comes from an animal that has been killed.

Most of the meat is humanly killed. It dose not feel a thing where as shooting it it stays alive for a bit after you shoot it, it feels pain.

Have you ever been to a slaughter house?

Because it's not needed. The professional farms are a sufficient supplier, so you killing them is unecessary killing. Even native Americans thought killing for sport was wrong and if you don't HAVE to kill for food, you're killing for sport. No matter how many times a hunter says they're killing for food, their primary reason to hunt is for the fun and sport of it. If the hunter just needed food and didn't care about the sport, he'd go to the store.

The methods of the slaughterhouse are wrong also as far as the suffering of the animals. They could process them differently.

You think you shouldn't have morals? Pretty sad.

just to clarify what you mean, what determines innocence? what qualities in the animal must exist to classify it as innocent.

which of these posses that quality of innocence?

meerkat, kangaroo, mongoose, cobra, black widow, elephant, kitten, mockingbird, crow, turkey buzzard, lady bug, amoeba, anaconda, human adult, human child, chimpanzee, tick, flea, leech, earthworm, lamb, mouse, rat, cockroach.
