I don't blame the mouse for living large in my food cupboard and enjoying the warmth and safety living in my cottage provides, so I don't see any reason to kill it. I don't want here, it's a destructive little critter and I've had to throw away food I really can't afford to lose, so it has to go. Just because it has to go doesn't mean it needs to die. And yes, glue traps are evil and incredibly inhumane. So I wait, impatiently, for Amazon to ship my Hav-a-Hart trap, which I will bait with peanut butter and oatmeal, a mixture that no mouse I've ever dealt with has ever been able to resist.
As for your view, it's pretty much the same that Buddhism and many pre-Christian belief systems believe.
