Yeah, I know about the book of Genesis, and THAT was what got me to change the way I eat. When I started being a student of the bible, I started thinking about certain scriptures, like: "Here I have given to you all vegetation bearing seed which is on the surface of the whole earth and every tree on which there is the fruit of a tree bearing seed. To you let it serve as food."-Genesis 1:29 and also, "And to every wild beast of the earth and to every flying creature of the heavens and to everything moving upon the earth in which there is life as a soul I have given all green vegetation for food." - Genesis 1:30. When God created us, he intended for us to be raw foodist and vegetarians. We can see that in the shape of our teeth, the lack of claws and our very short intestines, among other things. When I finally reasoned on this, it seemed so clear to me, that THAT was how god intended for us to be. But, my main point yesterday was that (this may be a bad thing), but I have strong believes and I completely disagree with the way farming animals are treated today, just so people can get meat in their plates everyday. I'm so sorry, but how can someone who CLAIMS to be extremely religious and compassionate (claiming to know the bible perfectly, and still participate in today's meat industry by consuming cruelty). I'm sorry I know it's hard and people love the taste of meat, but I just don't understand.. okay.. i'm sorry about that. I get really emotional about this topic. haha Thanks for your very imformative answer greenbunny. You seem very knowledgable and if in the future I have any questions, I hope I can ask you.
