You're a city dweller aren't you?
Of course having "dominion" means being a wise "steward" of the earth and all there is in it!
I don't eat food on the brink of extinction. That's crazy! And I don't know anyone who does. Jesus man! Why do people go there?
For financial and family reasons I have become a suburbanite.
I try not to give all my money to Coles and Woolies. All my purchases are considered including the waste .
"Why do people go there? " well because you said you'd eat anything you like, which sounds undisciplined and possibly illegal. They like to eat human fingers in Papua New Guinea
Originally posted by josephwThe topic is "torturing animals", as you put it. It's not about how it is cooked after it is killed or even about how raw it is when served up to eat. How does your "common sense" ~ after taking on board what Timothy means to you ~ affect your food choices when it comes to how the animals were treated when they were still alive?
Hell ya! Processed food is bad.
The more raw the better.

Originally posted by josephwthe point here is- and I'm sure you're aware -is that if while walking along and your next step should strike a beautiful flower, of course , as being one who appreciates gods wonders no doubt, you would conciously try to avoid stepping on it no?
But Jerry, can't you hear the raspberries screaming with there mouths as their nervous systems are being tortured? π
And suppose some young kids were watching... you get my drift ? π_

We are all the same spark of life, burning back to the first. We all want to live. We all must die. Cry for us.
