I've wondered if the Cain and Abel problem didn't stem from a dog versus livestock issue. Cain was a crop farmer and Abel was a herder. Maybe Cain's dogs got into Abel's sheep when they were in Cain's crop. I believe Cain and Abel were tribes and there was a pretty good sized fracas.

I used to have an old lawyer friend (now deceased) in Winnfield Louisiana. He said every murder case in Winn Parish involved hogs, dogs, money ,or women with the hogs and dogs being by far the primary cause.


Patriotism (and religion) is the last refuge of a scoundrel.

Jesus: "Take heed that no man deceive you."
