Campfire Conversations 88: Should Christians Kill & Eat Animals? (The Truth About Scripture & Hunting)

What this episode covers

On this episode of Campfire Conversations, I am joined by author, painter & lifelong hunter Doug Giles. Doug’s unapologetic stance on hunting is one that is rooted in scripture. Doug talks about his journey in finding his faith and how it led him to analyze the Bible and whether or not hunting is indeed a Biblical pursuit. What he found in the Good Book ultimately resulted in him penning The Bible & Hunting . In addition to discussing scriptures that validate our pursuit of wild game, we also talk about Doug’s background as a meat hunter to today, where he travels internationally in pursuit of the next great hunting adventure. Highlights from the discussion include: * Wondering in the wilderness, high on drugs and how Doug overcame that addiction * Origins – growing up as a meat hunter * What did a hunting lease cost 30-40 years ago? * International hunting trips * Living in the wokest of times * Who killed the first animal in the Bible and why? * What was Noah’s Ark really all about? * Was Jesus some vegetarian hippie? * Does a single verse in the Bible ever condemn hunting? * Man’s Righteous Right to Hunt * Doug’s favorite thing to hunt * A passion for an obsolete caliber * Doug’s work as an artist and the content he focuses on in his paintings
