The Bible shows that God gave permission for humans to eat the meat of animals after the Flood of Noah’s day, supplementing the diet of vegetation they were originally given. (Genesis 3:21; 4:4; 9:3)

Consider Genesis 9:3,

“Every moving animal that is alive may serve as food for YOU. As in the case of green vegetation, I do give it all to YOU.”

If the eating of animals as food was already in practice, there would have been no need for God to have even said this.

By saying, “I do give it all to YOU” suggests that at that point, both of these options of food were now available when one option wasn’t before.

Other Bibles echo this suggestion:

“Every moving thing that lives shall be food for you; and just as I gave you the green plants, I give you everything.” (NRS)

“Every moving thing that lives shall be food for you; and as I gave you the green plants, I give you everything.” (RSV)

“I have given them to you for food, just as I have given you grain and vegetables.” (NLT)

Conditions Attatched to The Eating of Meat

God states that the soul (life) of the fleshly creature is in the blood and is therefore sacred to Him. (Le 17:11-14) Not only is eating blood prohibited in the Old Testament, but also in the New Testament the governing body of the early Christian congregation restated this prohibition, forbidding the eating of animals strangled or not drained of blood:

“That you abstain from …blood.” (Acts 15:29)

Animals. Yum Yum.


When they can make vegie mince and vegie sausages and vegie burgers taste like real meat, i’ll consider going vegan.
 
In the mean time you are happy feasting on the dead rotting flesh of butchered animals?
 
Well … it’s complicated.

In the old testament, God permits humans to eat a certain number of animals, commands the Israelites to cut the hamstrings of some of their horses, and even commands the Israelites to kill animals and burn part of them in order to earn forgiveness for sins. In the new testament God commanded Saint Peter to eat animals that had previously been declared unclean, ending the kosher requirements.

Having said that, being cruel to animals for the sake of cruelty is absolutely a sin. Additionally Saint Francis of Assisi was a famous animal-lover; so there is room for you to be a vegetarian or a vegan.
