God has nothing to do with it. Each animal has evolved to its present state by competing successfully for resources (in this case, food.) The animal is simply following its instinctive nature, and not violating any laws of nature.

God does not allow animals to be killed needlessly, because there is no god. From the start life has fed on life. In fact, the higher the intelligence of an animal the more likely it depends on eating other animals. The value of whether an animal is kind or good is one assigned by humans. Your question implies you are a kind and sensitive person. However, this civil feeling is not shared by nature. Only man has created some societies where kindness is evident at least among themselves. Even vegetarians eat living things.

Animals don't do good or evil. They act on instinct merely. We aren't always the top of the food chain. We kill animals constantly. Once in a while one of them kills us (shark, bear, tiger etc). God doesn't intervene in the world. We're not just pawns & puppets. Why does he let natural elements (hurricanes etc) destroy us? Why does he let anything happen? Because that's how it plays out. One has to accept responsibility for one's own actions. If you're in the ocean, you take the risk of being eaten by a shark. In the woods, you may be mauled by a bear. You know that going in. The animals are not evil. If threatened, they defend themselves. Only humans are evil. We can distinguish right from wrong & we often hurt each other & other creatures (& the environment) without just cause. But God lets us do that because yes we have freewill.

Everything living dies, and most of those living things kill other living things, in order to eat. Humans eat animals. We're just like the animals killing other animals and humans, no different.
Animals don't understand "good" or "bad." They understand survival, both their own and that of their offspring, and in some cases the survival of their herd or group.
I don't believe in God, but if there is a God it looks like he lets everything that is living die. Often that death comes at the hands of another living thing, whether it be motivated by survival or something else.

The Orphic believed 'god' was Dionysus, the intoxicated and the insane. They'd rip each other to bits with their teeth whilst dancing naked and drunk. Basically, he's antithesis to the thesis deities. The thesis deities are ordered and good and deal with non corruptable things such as Apollo's knowledge, Athena's wisdom, etc. What they may have been explaining and enacting is the savage recycling of the born and dying and rising god, of which all mortal life is a part.

Wow ! How are animals supposed to eat if they do not hunt other animals? They can not go to the store or McDonald's... and as far as killing people goes they do not go out of thee way to find people to kill, people often find themselves in there territory(the forest). People have to learn how to co-exist with wild animals. And God does not control this. And by the way people kill far more often than animals... so who is the real problem here?

Animals dont rule the world,this is the reason for their being animals.They have limited abilities and of thinking and thoughts range and end almost always to the basic needs alone.Man is a higher animal with thinking powers.Knowing good bad and better.Knowingly man is not supposed to commit any harm for his self.

mans interaction with animals is a matter of cause and effect,what you put out is what you get back.it appears that animals can choose not to do GODS will. and are subject to the same laws of cause and effect. God put Man in the garden of eden where animals did not harm them from there all mankinds problems where his own doing. starting with "eating of the tree of knowledge of good and evil" seeing Duality,instead of the oneness of GOD in all things.

At one point in history, humans and animals were perfect and didn't need to feed off of each other. Then was a series of disasters, and everyone become violent and carnivorous. Animals don't have free will, humans have an illusion of free will.

soreness is a survival trait. you ought to renowned to go far off from hearth. To gnaw that affliction carrying parasite out of your fur. to stroll on 3 legs till your foot/hoof/paw heals. As for killing animals for food, many animals kill one yet another for food. some animals are carnivores and extremely some extra are omnivores. to not eat meat whilst our bodies assimilate it so devoid of issues could be stupid. in case you think in creation, then you definately ought to comprehend that God gave us the finished international to hold as our very own. Gen a million:28 And God blessed them, and God pronounced unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and refill the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the hen of the air, and over each residing element that moveth upon the earth. in case you think in evolution, you ought to comprehend that we are the precise of the food chain. Survival of the fittest. the two way, the earth is ours. provide up worrying approximately no rely if or not meat is stable. I desire i ought to furnish extra thumbs up. super Nintendo Chalmers could get 1000's!
