Christian Vegetarian Association Presents:
Take

Food and Spirituality
Kathy Freston, best-seller author, ponders the question about the link between choice of diet and spirituality. As it turns out, Freston, like many others, is able to see the inconsistency of eating animals who suffered much for people’s taste, and the following of a path of compassion and love. In fact, Freston specifically questions Christianity due to her own spiritual roots and comes across tremendous support from the Bible and many Christian scholars against eating meat, which is very consistent to the teachings of a loving and compassionate God.

Indeed, the eating of animals is a subject many times raised in the Bible and nowhere in it has God encouraged people to eat His /Her animals. In fact, God’s original plan, mentioned in the book of Genesis, is to live harmoniously with all creatures and to eat a plant-based diet. If today’s Christians followed this path of love and compassion, the world would certainly be a better place because, undoubtedly, our footprint of healing and reconciliation would be evident.
