Why I am not a vegan

[Diana]

I would like to point out one thing that keeps slipping through the cracks here. We don't even know that Jesus existed.

He exists.

We don't know that Ra existed either, and yet here we all are spending countless hours of online discussion to understand the words channeled by this supposed " Ra"

You are missing the point. It is your opinion that Jesus existed or exists. I don't need to know that Ra exists in order to discuss the Ra Material. I don't need to know Jesus existed to discuss the bible.

I don't recognize authority outside myself.

But to say he ate fish is crazy.

No it's not. Maybe crazy to you. But it's not crazy, insane, mad or deranged. During his time it was customary.

Okay, I didn't say insane, mad, or deranged. Please let's not get melodramatic. I suppose I need to be more selective with grammar. I meant "crazy" in a slang sort of way. Let me rephrase: It's pure speculation based on no facts at all that Jesus ate fish (or even existed).

And by the way, Genesis in the bible points out that "I [God] have given you [man] every herb bearing seed, which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree, in the which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed; to you it shall be for meat." (King James Version)

Although inconsistent to your whole argument, I like that quote.

I was not being inconsistent if you wouldn't read into what I say rather than just reading it with an open mind. I personally find passive-aggressive digs such as this annoying.

I added that as a "by the way." I was only pointing this out for those who are using the Christian bible as an authority (Jesus ate fish so I can eat meat). It would be self-serving to use the Jesus parable, but ignore the alleged mandate from God.

Why do you like that quote?
