Where do you draw the line at killing?

The bible says "Thou shalt not kill!" But God isn't specific. He doesn't say Thou shalt not kill people, but certain animals are okay to kill. or Thou shalt not kill pigs but not spiders in your bed you may kill. How do you implement this commandment into your life? Where's you killing comfort level?

For me kill is regarding all forms of living. I don't know if I have killing comfort level, because I don't. Killing is killing.

I guess you will need to look at the definition of the word "kill" in the original language. It is possible that the word used was specific.

Well I will certainly will not kill people! But, I have done some killings in my life. I do some diving and I have caught some various animals of the sea. But I stopped killing for fun. It's nonsense and I am sorry for what I did.. I would kill to survive. Which means to eat or in self defense.
