"God is watching, eh?" ----Yes. Here's what Jesus had to say: “Do I eat the flesh of bulls, or drink the blood of goats? Offer to God a sacrifice of thanksgiving, and make thanksgiving your sacrifice to the Most High” (Psalm 50:13-14).

Jesus did not approve of sacraficial animals being exploited in such a cruel fashion. Would he be a "Sport Hunter". I certainly don't believe he would. Certainly not in this day and age.

Talk about clueless!

First off, Psalms was written before Jesus was born so they didn't quote him there.

Second, that section isn't concnered with the welfare of the animals as it is with the sanctity of the sacrifices and symbolism associated with it.

Grossly misquoting scripture and doing it in the Lord's name as you are doing is definately something Jesus wouldn't approve of.

I don't recall seeing anything in the Bible that would forbid or even discourage hunting.

Uh, yes he did. That's why he became one himself.
