From OP:

I would hate using pepper spray, horns or guns (don't own one) on a bear.
Wait... I can see not wanting to use guns (might harm the bear and one could accidentally harm a person). I can kind of see not wanting pepper or bear spray (might disable self). But horns? Other than that they might not dissuade a bear, what is the trouble with horns? And do horns actually work on bears?

If you are afraid of bears, being in a tent could be more of a danger than the CT.....food is the key......hang it up on a tree limb about 8 feet off the ground sticking out about 6 feet from the tree body......keep it away from the bed down area.....if that doesn't work for you, then maybe you are not of the camping kind.....I camp in the mountains all across California, Utah Wyoming and Montana on a motorcycle with friends.....we use tent all the time.....we have food there too.....fortunately, we have never had any issues with bears.....just howling coyotes....
