Have any other members been distressed by the discussion on how to kill
butterflies?
Am I somehow missing the point?
Should we be teaching a 13 year old how to kill butterflies?  

All types of collecting are severely frowned upon in the UK and the taking
of a small number of specimens is regarded as necessary by  the scientific
members of our fraternity, but certainly not by the greater number of
amateurs of which I am one.

Enjoying these beautiful creatures I find find it abhorant that I could
play some sought of God and decide what should live.    Collect or dissect,
  the necessity of either I would like to be convinced of.  Try me.

Greetings to all members
