I totally understand your thoughts on vegetarianism. My dad chooses not to eat meat, but my mom did and so did all 4 of us children, however, I definitely find myself not eating it much! I'm big on dairy though. It's the Nativity Lent, now, so no meat or dairy, anyhow...Marthahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03411789923271959623noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2803169071579899054.post-85710190083574961892007-11-30T10:07:00.000-08:002007-11-30T10:07:00.000-08:00I am glad that you brought up the fact that meat u...I am glad that you brought up the fact that meat used to be a priviledge, not a right. As a result of people seeing it as a right, there is mistreatment of animals through their living conditions, diet and 'suplements' and that makes me sad.

He mentioned that in the olden days, meat was considered a luxury and was not eaten all the time. The fatted calf was killed and eaten only for very special occasions. I thought of you right away because even if you do eat meat every so often, I still think it is a higher calling to transition into more vegetarian diet--spiritually and practically (I still need to read that book you gave me "Diet for a Small Planet".Brigittehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01569758337352583476noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2803169071579899054.post-40853046280585810082007-11-25T12:48:00.000-08:002007-11-25T12:48:00.000-08:00God help and guide you, my dear friend.
