I’ve often pondered if fish is the traditional Good Friday dish, not because fish are special in any way, but Big J and the lads simply just ordered fish that day. Or they was out of T-bones 🤔
God is thee only Energy which has gone without food / water.
Traditionally, Fish may be acceptable as Fish was one of the first forms of life. People ate fish for generations, passed down the line so it's acceptable on a Yoga / Science sense.
Going out on a limb and guess He's neither since He asked for rams and doves for sacrifices in the Old Testament. Wouldn't a vegan god ask for bouquets of flowers and fruit instead?
@revenant Yes, but even though He's portrayed as an angry god in the Bible just between us I personally believe He's a god of mercy and forgiveness, not a god of punishment.
Would it make any difference? He was clearly a socialist or at the very least strongly pro-welfare:
Jesus: I tell you the truth, it is hard for a rich man to enter the kingdom of heaven. Again I tell you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God (Matthew 19:23).
Jesus: To one who strikes you on the cheek, offer the other also, and from one who takes away your cloak do not withhold your tunic either. Give to everyone who begs from you, and from one who takes away your goods do not demand them back. And as you wish that others would do to you, do so to them (Luke 6:27).
Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth (Matthew 5:5).
Yet this is conveniently forgotten by the so called "christian" capitalist rightwing.
Therefore, if he was campaigning just as strongly for vegetarianism or veganism, it would be conveniently ignored too. Besides, he seemed to like fish, so at most he would be a pescetarian.
@Mathers And I've already replied to that, your question has nothing to do with what is being discussed here, but is just a way to gatekeep opinions you don't like.
@revenant Good, so you'll agree with me that those who propose similar welfare politics aren't communist either
Check out this list of God approved foods from the Bible. https://www.learnreligions.com/foods-of-the-bible-700172 If God approved these foods for us, then I would assume they are alright for Him also therefore, God would no be a vegan.
