Change of Diet after Witnessing Cow being Slaughtered
The assistant director on Ryan Piers Williams' new movie The Dry Land stopped eating meat after witnessing the slaughter of a cow, a scene that was filmed for the project.

"An image is worth a thousand words." The slaughtering of an animal, a barbaric and brutal act no matter how humanely is carried out, is an eye-opening experience that can help people make mindful choices surrounding their diet. However, the article above helps us wonder, why didn’t all the witnesses make the same choice to stop eating meat as the assistant director?

In a Fallen world it’s indeed hard to not to follow our desires, but as Christians we are called to be obedient to God even in times of trial and temptation.
