Wow! I never thought much about labels before I must admit, but I certainly have a few and have been given a few by others: Female; White; Pensioner; Lesbian; Spiritual; Poet; Singer/Musician; Animal Rights enthusiast; Counsellor; A hopeless Romantic; Clown; Idealist; Psychic; and a Dreamer.
Facts are stubborn things; and whatever may be our wishes, our inclinations, or the dictates of our passions, they cannot alter the state of facts and evidence. John Adams

Oh yeah, I forgot one for me. Hunter. I shoot animals and eat them. There's a place in this world for all God's creatures. Right next to the mashed potatoes and gravy!LOL!

A hunter too! Well I would never have guessed by reading your posts that you'd be the type of guy who creeps around forests with a shotgun killing defenceless (gods?) creatures. I saw someone call you a bully in another post, that's only the half of it.

Dave, honestly, that one was intended only to make people mad!
There was nothing Christlike or promoting about that post- it was simply put out there, in that smirky tone, to get a rile out of someone.

Oh but you know that animals are put on this earth for us to use ( not abuse). We are to take dominion over them. As long as we don't hunt them into extinction then they are a renewable resource like trees or wheat. There for the harvest. Nothing wrong with killing animals for food whether you do it yourself or whether you pay someone to do it for you by buying meat in a supermarket. Just the same. And by the way, I use a shotgun on birds and a rifle on deer. my brother-in-law uses a bow and arrow. More challenging.

I have no problem with hunters. I eat meat, and see no difference between hunting for venison meat or buying beef in the grovery store. Either way is killing animals.
I just thought the way you posted it was a little, how shall I say, challenging.

Sometimes you have to stir the pot to get a little steam. Get people talking. Engaging.

It doesn't engage, it just offends.

Offense is sometimes good if it steers someone to the truth.
