Law of One Religion?

[Monica]

Those of Ra are probably shaking their (made of light) heads right now over everyone using their quotes as justification for pointing the finger at other-selves.

Personally, I don't care what Ra says or doesn't say about eating meat. I have made up my own mind, for my own reasons, and no one, no group, or no thing could change my mind. It's not that I'm rigid or dogmatic. I have simply evolved away from it (being my own personal evolution) just as a child evolves away from playing with toys (I know . . . adults play with toys too but I had to try and come up with something innocuous, or risk getting blasted by someone who thinks I'm equating eating meat with pouting or throwing tantrums ).

This is precisely why it's such a good example of dogma. I have heard many Christians say "It's ok to eat animals because the bible says so." and they think this absolves them of any responsibility for it. 

This is but one of many examples of a Ra quote being used to make a decision, that otherwise might not seem acceptable.

Another example or religious dogma is when a Christian pastor told me "We should just kill all the Muslims. They're all going to hell anyway." Yes, he really said that! This man who would otherwise say that killing is wrong, thought it was ok since they were 'going to hell anyway.'

Left to our own common sense, most humans would agree that cows have a lot more in common with humans than they do carrots. But because Ra said both cows and carrots are 2D (never mind that 2D is a veeeeerrrrrrrry long density), a common response here has been "it's ok to kill animals because they're 2D, just like carrots." Never mind that cows have pain receptors and nervous systems while carrots don't. No common sense required, because Ra said xyz.
