Thank you very much. Sadly I know very little Talmud.Why? Let's put aside the matter of obligation, sin, reward and punishment,
don't you see the evil in eating milk with meat?
The bottom line, what Jews call 'a taste',
as in the meaning and intent of a commandment,
is that your evil inclination can excuse, rationalize away anything,
but if you understand 'the taste', you're conscious of what you're excusing.
So don't you see the evil in eating milk and flesh?
If anything, do you think you deserve the cow you eat?
Do you help it rise to human level, or do you become the cow?
I keep some kosher and I abstain from working and using electricity/internet on Sabbaths and Holidays. I also keep the fasts.
Have an easy fast Yom Kippur.
