Ask Zeus Operator1 min to readIs it against Zevism to hurt insects?
If insects harm you, get rid of them.
For example, you can put a mosquito net (on the window) or make habitation unbearable for harmful insects if you are in your house.
«You will find on the left of the halls of Hades a spring, and standing by it a white cypress. Do not approach this spring at all. You will find another, from the Lake of Memory, with cold water flowing from it. Guardians stand before it. Say: 'I am a child of Earth and starry Heaven, but my race is of Heaven alone. You know this yourselves. I am parched with thirst and am perishing. Give me quickly the cold water flowing from the Lake of Memory.' And they will give you to drink from the sacred spring, and after that you will reign among the other heroes» - From the Petelia Tablet (300-200 BCE)

É contra o Zevismo ferir insetos?
I have killed and still kill ants, flies and other insects out of pure impulse.
I just see them and kill them, it's unconscious
Then I feel sad for the insect
... εἰ δὲ νοεῖς, ἔστιν, ὦ βασιλεῦ, ϰαὶ σωμάτων ἀσώματα. — Ποῖα; ἔφη ὁ βασιλεύς. — Τὰ ἐν τοῖς ἐσόπτροις φαινόμενα σώματα οὐ δοϰεῖ σοι ἀσώματα εἶναι; — Οὕτως ἔχει, ὦ Τάτ· ϑείως νοεῖς, ὁ βασιλεὺς εἶπεν. — Ἔστι δὲ ϰαὶ ἀσώματα ἄλλα, οἷον αἱ ἰδέαι οὐ δοϰοῦσιν εἶναί σοι, ἀσώματοι οὖσαι, ἐν σώματι φαινόμεναι, οὐ μόνον τῶν ἐμψύχων ἀλλὰ ϰαὶ τῶν ἀψύχων; — Εὖ λέγεις, ὦ Τάτ. — Οὕτως ἀνταναϰλάσεις εἰσὶ τῶν ἀσωμάτων πρὸς τὰ σώματα, ϰαὶ τῶν σωμάτων πρὸς τὰ ἀσώματα, τουτέστι τοῦ αἰσϑητοῦ πρὸς τὸν νοητὸν ϰόσμον ϰαὶ τοῦ νοητοῦ πρὸς τὸν αἰσϑητόν· διὸ προσϰύνει τὰ ἀγάλματα, ὦ βασιλεῦ, ὡς ϰαὶ αὐτὰ ἰδέας ἔχοντα ἀπὸ τοῦ νοητοῦ ϰόσμου. ὁ οὖν βασιλεὺς ἐξαναστὰς ἔφη, Ὥρα ἐστίν, ὦ προφήτα, περὶ τὴν τῶν ξένων ἐπιμέλειαν γενέσϑαι· τῇ δὲ ἐπιούσῃ περὶ τῶν ἑξης ϑεολογήσομεν.

No, it is not against killing insects. But against ignorance it is. One of the greatest offenses against the Gods is ignorance, stupidity and being a jerk.
A few years ago, there was a classmate of mine, who just to show off and be seen by others, tried to kill a bee. The bee had done absolutely nothing, just leaning on the small table outside.
This is an example of total stupidity, and the Temple of Zeus is against this.
Hmm, it was just a massive spider and I was scared to sleep seeing that shit near my bed, so I squashed it. Is this okay?

It's not about right or wrong to kill, but rather ask yourself, is it necessary to take this little creature's life away, because you're scared of it? Especially since most home spiders won't harm you in any way whatsoever?
I am reaching towards a green apple.

It was fucking massive. Like the size of a fist. But I guess the better thing to have done is to throw it outside.

If your life is not in danger why kill someone? And even then, being smart and brave one can find a solution not to kill an animal. I saw a video of a Florida man luring a crocodile in a dumpster and hauling it next to some bushes then setting it free. Brave and smart.

This is the targeted message.

I'm not sure it's right to kill an insect out of fear, but if you eat the spider after killing it, then I think you should be innocent.
Okay, seriously, I'm afraid of insects, too. But I was too scared to even kill an insect. Maybe you can get a cat, or some other animal that eats insects, so you can get your pets to help you kill them, so you don't have to worry about making a mistake by killing them.

You do know that spiders are not insects right? Next time just put a cup or jar over it, slide a piece of cardboard underneath and release it outside. When sliding the cardboard watch the legs and try not to do it too fast and panicky and hurt them in the process. All predatory "bugs" are your friends and keep the nasty ones in check, remember that.
I used to keep scorpions, mantises, centipedes, cockroaches and other invertebrates some of which can actually kill you. With respect and careful handling no harm ever came to either side.
Getting over any phobia is possible and there's much to gain from working on overcoming fear in general. The quality of your life will improve substantially.
Observe them and you'll see how amazing they are like all other forms of life (with the exception of some parasitoid alien species that make our existence more difficult than it has to be).
