didn%26#039;t God give us animals to eat like lamb and fish?
answer from chineseop.com cooking QA
You must be confused as to what Christian, vegetarian, and God mean/are. Let me explain:
Christianity: following the teachings or manifesting the qualities or spirit of Jesus Christ while being in one God.
Vegetarianism: the practice of a diet and philosophy that excludes the consumption of all animal body parts, and slaughter by-products
God: a supernatural spiritual deity and loving being conceived as the perfect and omnipotent and omniscient originator and ruler of the universe.
Now let%26#039;s move on to your next question. No, God did not give us animals to eat like lamb and fish. God brought animals to this earth to LIVE, just like God brought us on here to LIVE. Do you think God would approve or like the way humans consume animals? God is not hate and does not like hateful things much. And if animals were meant for consumption what is with all the health and mental problems and diseases it causes humans, and why would God make animals so close to humans? Did God give us to each other to eat? No, so why are animals different? Because they are a different spiece? Does developmental and understanding mean anything to you?
Even those who say at first he said for us to be vegan, but after the flood, ah never mind eat animals, that would make no logical sense. It would be like after Hurricane Katrina God would come down and say dang it you may now eat each other. No logic there whatsoever. Even those who say well then why did God make some animals eat others? Not all animals are carnivores, a lot are herbivores and omnivores. The ones that are carnivores need for survival, sure God could have created them like herbivores, but he did not for some reason. But humans are herbivores with necessity omnivore, which is basically a plant based diet is needed to survive and best to live, but we drink our mothers milk when we are young to grow, and if ever we need to eat animals or each other when starving we can without automatically getting sick (most of the time). But consuming animal products all the time or frequently is a major risk in your health.
Bottom line veg*anism from a true real Christian view, is that you can NOT be a true Christian and eat animals, it goes against all of Jesus%26#039;s teachings and what God is about.

Adam%26#039;s %26quot;dominion%26quot; over animals (Genesis 1:26, 28), we believe, conveys sacred stewardship, since God then prescribed a vegetarian diet (Genesis 1:29-30) in a world God found %26quot;very good%26quot; (1:31). Genesis 2:18-19 relates, %26quot;Then the Lord God said, %26quot;it is not good that man should be alone; I will make him a helper fit for him%26#039;%26quot; and God then created animals. According to this passage, animals were made as Adam%26#039;s companions and helpers, certainly not his supper.

Actually, according to the Bible, people did not eat meat until after Noah%26#039;s flood. Adam and Eve were vegetarians. Whether or not you eat meat doesn%26#039;t really have anything to do with being christian. The Bible doesn%26#039;t condemn killing just what you need for food but is against unnecessary killing or cruelty to animals.
Personally, I eat meat and consider myself a christian. I would never, ever go out and kill an animal just for sport though. Vegetarianism, veganism and such are a personal choice.
answer from chineseop.com cooking QA
Well, in the Bible there are numerous references to eating meat. However, it does say to avoid pigs and certain other animals as food. When I was growing up, our vegetarianism stemmed from our Christianity due to the fact that our bodies are temples, we should only put the purest of foods in them. And really, humans are not meant to eat meat. Carnivorous animals are built in such a way as to digest meat, while people aren%26#039;t.
answer from chineseop.com cooking QA
Though everyone knows that Bible is incomplete, without arguing it¡¯s lateral definition, no one could interpret it without error. Nevertheless the modern bible and interpretation [like ????? (Hebrew) is ¡°nutrition¡±, not the meat (animal flesh) in real context], what were the complete context of gospels and other Gnostic views, and why were they ¡°overlooked¡± eventually - is unclear.
The consumption of animal flesh was unknown up until the great flood; but since then we have had the fibers and the stinking juices of animal flesh stuffed into our mouths ... Jesus Christ, who appeared when the time was fulfilled, again spanned the bow from the end to the beginning, so that we are no longer allowed to eat animal flesh...¡± Many apostles, who were vegetarians, also saw it this way, for example, Peter and John, and James, the brother of the Lord, who after the crucifixion of Jesus became the leader of the original community. It was reported that Jesus of Nazareth condemned cruel acts toward animals. That Peter was Vegetarian is seen in the Clementine Recognitions and the Clementine Homilies, as well as by Pliny the Younger%26#039;s letter to Emperor Trajan in 112 c.e. It seemed that many apostles were lived as vegetarians, and others at least condemn the cruelty to animals.
