If God did not intend for us to eat animals, then why did he make them out of meat?
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
The main point for me is moral; animals are sentient beings. I know for some this is a hard argument to accept, but we're not built to eat a lot of meat.
The nature of human beings is to eat meat and fruits and vegetables, and therefore we have to kill animals. I don't have a problem with that. But it's a sacred moment. It's a gift of life.
We're predators; we don't eat meat because it's handy, we eat meat because we have a taste for blood.
A man can live and be healthy without killing animals for food; therefore, if he eats meat, he participates in taking animal life merely for the sake of his appetite.
The Bible tries to make humans not animals the whole time. I think it's a bit of a mistake.
I was not created to be occupied by eating delicious foods like tied up cattle.
Food should be raw, just the way God intended it!
The only meat I eat is from animals I've killed myself.
Genesis 9 is where the animals went wild, and God gave them wildness. After the flood, that's when he made animals wild. Up until that time, everybody was vegetarian.
Animals that we eat are raised for food in the most economical way possible, and the serious food producers do it in the most humane way possible. I think anyone who is a carnivore needs to understand that meat does not originally come in these neat little packages.
