Of course we have done much farming for a while and many people don't have any contact to hunting or even farming, so alienation is serious issue, but anyways, we are still predators or at least carnivorous (if you eat meat).
Agreed, we are predators although some of that has likely left us over the years as we begin relying more on farming etc as other sources of food.

In the wild most predators don't kill simply for the joy of killing. They have a reason. It may be other than food (like breeding rights, protecting territory or other members of their group etc), but as far as I am aware there isn't a lot of killing simply for the sake of killing.
