I read somewhere that Noah was allowed 7 of each domesticated animal on the Ark, though having looked it up I see that it is not very clear on that.
So do you believe that all animals in Eden were Vegans? Were all animals before the flood vagans, or only humans? Do you believe that the only domestic animals before the flood were kept for fur?
(Genesis 1:29) And God went on to say: “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.

The post that was quoted here has been removednot only can i say such things with certainty, the bible verifies the fact. Can you point to the declaration where god stated that Adam and eve could eat meat, no you cannot for its as non existent as your puny mind! your refutation amounts to a big fat zero, centre of the biggest fattest doughnut your measly intellect can grapple with.
where is the decree that God gave to Noah stating that he could eat meat before the flood, an entirely different issue, but i dont expect you were able to filter out the important details so as to distinguish one form the other! yes that is correct in your dreams Rajpaj its also non existent!!! haha what a noob!
i have specifically avoided speculation and merely stated what is self evident form scripture. do you also believe in the man on the moon, the tooth fairies and Santa Claus? look Raj theres a unicorn and a dolphin jumping over a rainbow! ma ma ma mma ma am muppet!

I'm ashamed to admit TO MYSELF that I am not a strict vegetarian.(please note:this thread is not intended judge meat-eaters nor to try to convert people to vegetarianism.)

What do you guys and gals think?
Originally posted by robbie carrobieWhy is such a declaration from God required? God already stated BEFORE THE FLOOD that there was a difference between 'clean' and 'unclean' animals. Clean animals were eaten.

The puny mind belongs to the person who lacks the ability to reason and make intelligent deductions.
Originally posted by Rajk999so there is no declaration, thank you your great doughnutness, i have pointed to a decree given by God, directly to Adam and Eve, written in the pages of the Bible, which explicitly states that they were to eat vegetables and fruit and you are blabbering on about clean and unclean animals that were to be taken upon the ark? i rest my case. Where were are Adam and Even given permission to eat flesh, that is correct nowhere! it may be news to you, but Adam and Eve were not on the ark, with Noah and his family, they would never have heard of the command given to Noah, you are fantasying again!"

Christ seems to suggest that there is no connection between what you eat and spirituality. Any connection people claim there is, is purely imaginary.

I honestly believe we were designed /created to eat fruits and veggies 🙂
just because of our intestinal tracts. The intestinal tracts of true carnivores are short allowing the meat to pass quickly. There may be other reasons too. I don't know why but God allowed man to eat meat but I don't think this was God's design for us. Also look at heart disease and other factors caused by the eating of meat. I however agree with what Jesus said about it's not what goes into the man that defiles him but what is in his heart. However there are examples like in the book of Daniel were they denied the royal food and ate Veggies & water. I think vegetarianism for health sure.
