God, Nimrod, and the World presents the perspectives of more than
two-dozen authors on the controversial sport of hunting, surveying
the relationship between the blood sport and the salvation religion
of Christianity. The first half of the book provides sketches of
the diverse interpretations of hunting in Hebrew and Christian
cultures of the last two millennia, finally giving voice to those
in the field who are both practitioners and persons of faith. The
second half offers prescriptions for the place of hunting in the
life of contemporary Christians, with perspectives arguing for
prohibition to those contending that hunting has a practical, even
perfecting, place in the life of faith. The contributors, who hail
from North America and the United Kingdom, include biblical
scholars, theologians, philosophers, ethicists, historians, and
sociologists, as well as professional athletes, celebrity hunters,
teachers, musicians, healthcare professionals, and a soldier.
