Not to push any support toward airheads like Gaia, but the fact is that the whole world was vegetarian prior to the biblical universal flood. It was only after Noah departed from the ark that God told them to begin to eat the flesh of animals . . .
Gen_1:29 And God said, Behold, I have given you every herb bearing seed, which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree, in the which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed; to you it shall be for meat. Gen_1:30 And to every beast of the earth, and to every fowl of the air, and to every thing that creepeth upon the earth, wherein there is life, I have given every green herb for meat: and it was so. - vegetarian
Gen_9:3 Every moving thing that liveth shall be meat for you; even as the green herb have I given you all things.
I would rephrase that as "whole world was suppose to be vegetarian prior to the biblical universal flood."
Man is doing what ever it wants inside and outside the church like in the time of Noah.
