Past is Future?
Protests against celebrity hunter Melissa Bachman mount in 2013. Same thing happens in 2015, this time the outrage focused on degenerate dentist Walter Palmer over his killing of Cecil the Lion. Protests spasms go in cycles. Nothing really changes—or does it?
Even the New York Daily News, not exactly a “Bambi-loving,” treehugging rag, but one which usually caters to the “manly” blue collar crowd, found this woman’s antics objectionable. The paper printed a rather long article, giving details about this huntress’ long trail of blood through the animal world. Headlined the paper:
Show presenter Melissa Bachman slammed after posting photo of lion she killed in South Africa
Bachman posted a smiling picture of herself with a dead lion in front of her, gushing about her ‘incredible hunting day.’ Her enthusiasm was not shared by thousands of others, who signed a petition to ban Bachman from South Africa.
(DAVID HARDING NEW YORK DAILY NEWS Saturday, November 16, 2013).
Yes, back in 2013 more than 250,000 people signed an online petition demanding South Africa deny future entry to Melissa Bachman, a big game hunter and tv show host whose smiling photo with a dead lion sparked considerable outrage. Well, you see, Melissa—certainly not the first of these sociopathic assholes, nor the last (witness the recent murder of Cecil the Lion by dentist Walter Palmer in Zimbabwe)—is an “avid hunter.” And so are billionaires and royals and assorted lesser magnates, wealthy professionals and businessmen from every corner of the earth. The Gulf Arab monarchies have hunted in Africa for generations. And so have Juan Carlos, the clueless idiot King of Spain, the useless British royals, and a horde of newly rich copycats.
Aside from their broader social toxicity, these people are a plague on the face of the earth, and, way in the rear, they typify the scandalous lag in the human species’ moral evolution. (Incidentally, the utter political chaos, rampant corruption, and constant civil strife that blight the great African continent, much of it created and fostered precisely by the developed “West”, allow this form of predation by rich tourists to fester and even thrive in certain areas, to the detriment of animals and flora.)
For not only are humans responsible for exacting an enormous toll in pain and death on billions of animals via their ruthless “factory farming system”, through their relentless extractive activities they have also triggered the global destruction of habitats in all latitudes, thereby condemning untold animals to slow and painful deaths, and billions of poorer humans to lives of uncertainty and artificial want. Consistent with this accursed achievement, man’s proudest creation, a cancerous, utterly amoral form of industrialism guided solely by profit and selfish gain, is finally rapidly finishing off the planet itself—at least all its essential life-sustaining parts, like the oceans, atmosphere, and the overall ultra-delicate regulating mechanism we call climate. Against this gigantic pile of systemic horrors, these wanton acts of discretionary cruelty, basically shooting animals for fun, defines depravity in our time. —PG

The louder we shout, the more they kill…. there is a reason they arent listening and nothing is done to stop it…. Almost all the examples cited above were committed by Christians, mostly male, but now women as well… It is a Christian prerogative rooted in genesis to triumph over animal kind…. it is dominion. It is proof one is more important than animals, the top of the dominion hierarchy.
This type of show-off killing offers significance to otherwise insignificant persons, who without their trophies and killing selfies would have no other accomplishments, no other source of pride.
The most unnoticeable persons, gain status and stature from killing defenseless animals, especially those with an image of majesty or power.
Without the endorsement of dominion, these arrogant killers would not gain fame from their conquests:
Genesis 9:1-3 “The fear and dread of you shall rest on every animal of the earth, and on every bird of the air, on everything that creeps on the ground, and on all the fish in the sea; into your hand they are delivered. Every moving thing that lives shall be food for you; and just as I gave you the green plants, I give you everything.”
Incidentally there are Christian Ministries dedicated to teaching children self-aggrandizement through killing wildlife:
These children of dominion are taught to dominate, conquer and destroy wildlife and nature. One means of reinforcing dominion of the genesis mandate, consists of christian youth hunting ministries: which are proudly creating the next generation of crusaders, the next generation to enforce christian dominion. The following are examples of one such Christian Youth Hunting Ministry, aptly named: Genesis 9: 2-4 Ministries
