I'm saying eating animals is okay and not considered abuse according to the Bible. You're still not listening.
You're the one not listening, or just not getting what I'm saying.
Let me put it in a different way.
At the time the bible was written, industrialized animal agriculture wasn't a thing, there were no profit-driven factory farms at that time.
So in TODAY'S world, when you partake in eating and using animal products, you are - whether you want to or not - PAYING someone else to exploit, abuse, terrorize and brutally kill an animal that is no different than your dog or cat, in all the ways that matter.
You know what HAS stayed the same? The principles that we are supposed to follow, in the bible.
The principles of having mercy, love, kindness, gentleness, peace and treating others the way you'd want to be treated.
We can apply timeless biblical principles to TODAY'S world, which is a very different world than it was at the time the bible was written.
You keep focusing on eating animals..... but what you're ignoring is what you're PAYING for, before the "food" gets to your table.
