I made a post on another thread that shooting critters haplessly at long range was bad karma.. Ringman asked this...

this time I'll answer and cut to the chase -
Would it be OK for a God, or "God" to be careless with ending a life and causing crippling, or long suffering death ?
When you shoot an elk at a range it never, ever could be capable of defending itself via sensing you (and they've seen me at 100's of yards, but not at 1000 plus)... Then you are playing God and being careless...
If you play the "not careless card" - well your a liar.
I think my quote was - you'd better hope God isn't as careless as you are... The inferred principle is the gold end rule... God to no a God... Humans have dominion over critters, and our quality as gardians of them is shown by how careless we are with them, especially when harvesting one.
Tech makes people flinpet about responsibility... The Internet is a good example.
So go forth and multiply - .. Either responsibility, or otherwise.
