    Statement:
    My sister's fiance wants to take me deer hunting. I don't have a problem with hunters, but I've never done. There's a huge appeal for me here - it's very primal and Hemingwayesque.

    Should I hesitate and not go? Or should I go and purposely miss the deer? Or should I just be fine with the fact that if we're going to eat meat, it's gotta die somehow, and suck it up and be a man and shoot a deer?

Counsel: Go but miss the deer
