Jesus spent a lot of time with fishermen, and removed
them from their occupation of smothering and suffocating
the innocent creatures the consumption of whom causes
stomach cancer, heart disease, choking etc.

Fish on Friday was the final vestige of early Christian
vegetarianism in following Christ's example.

Dear L,

To God all the creatures He created are sacred.
He drove the moneychanging butchers out of the temple.
The Essene Gospel of Peace is one of many texts indicating
that Jesus was a member of that vegetarian Galileean group.

If you heard the screams of the slaughterhouse, perhaps
you would understand.

A cannibal might say
"If God did not want us to eat humans why did He make
them taste like meat?"

Meat is more addictive than coffee, since the preurine
in animal cells is trioxypurine, stronger than caffein
which is dioxypurine.

If you miss meat buy a veggieburger and whiz on it.

Genesis: 1: 29
Behold I have given you herbyielding seed. To you it
shall be for food.

God designed a fruitarian Garden of Eden in which
what plants and trees and vines and bushes dropped in our
laps and at our feet was
what we were to eat.

Please acquaint yourself with what John Wesley, General Booth of the
Salvation Army, St Francis, Ellen White of the Seventh
Day Adventists said about their following Christ's example
in not eating flesh.

Humor is an objective response to the suffering of others.

Unlike you I do not accept that the political appointee
traslators of the Bible given their positions by
the bisexual King James necessarily translated
Jesus' Aramaic or Paul's Greek correctly.

One translation is that Jesus said 'ye are whited
sepulchres'. The Greek translation of Jesus' Aramaic
is sarcophagi... which means literally sarx flesh phagi
eater. Jesus said "Ye are flesheaters" and
metaphorically that anyone who eats the corpse of an animal becomes
a sarcophagus or portable cemetery of that animal

Let me guess, not only was Jesus a vegetarian, He and all His Disciples were gay, right?

Etymology is not an exact science. I know of no etymologists
who speak Sanskrit, the mother of all language, or its children Greek, Latin, Aramaic,
Hebrew. I know of no one truly equipped to write of
the roots of words.

Catholics are equal in God's eyes to people of any other
path.

Thanks.

Keep reading. I think the story continues after that point.

And if you are truly a fruitarian, well...more power to you. Onwards and upwards to breathatarianism! Don't get weighed down by that material sustenance.

Also, Jesus was not a vegetarian. When he said he had meat to eat that they knew not of, the disciples wouldn't have asked if anyone had bought groceries, they would have said, "Meat! You're eating meat now?"

LOL. So, Christ Jesus offered his own flesh and blood to his disciples to eat and drink, and told them it was real food and drink and that they couldn't have eternal life without it, but he was really a crypto-vegetarian.

Riiiiiiiiiight ...

The ascetic life of monks is not to be confused with the life of the laity. As for the rest, I'm profoundly uninterested in the varied errors of modernist heretics.

Fruitarian is an old Algonquin word for "lousy hunter".
