I wouldn’t date a man who refused to pet an animal.

If he doesn’t have the decent compassion for animals, he doesn’t fit the bill to me. And I am married to a hunter! But the rule is if you kill it, it better be food. Otherwise, God made us stewards of all animals and to not be loving toward them is un-Godly.

I didn’t make my husband eat the armadillo he shot that was destroying our yard.

I think you might want to modify your statement a bit. I would imagine you have no trouble killing insects, spiders, rodents, and other animals that might intrude into you home or threaten your pets, livestock, food supply.

I have no problem killing the raccoons that kill my chickens and the varmints that destroy my crops.
