One man's prison is another man's freedom. Love is the key here. Love. I would hang out with a loving meat eater who smokes and drinks and gambles and curses and LOVES others than a LOT of the people I have encountered on my health walk. They look down their noses at meat eaters because meat eaters look down on them, and then meat eaters get even more mad, and on and on. Satan wins. Divide and counquer isn't part of the plan, IT'S THE ONLY PLAN!! You know what I see a lot of?? I shall quote the amazing ballader Jim Croce, "Let him live in freedom/If he lives like me". In a sick narcassitic (sp) way, at a very small level, most people want to believe the way they live is right and have some weird desire to have others do JUST the same. I do not. Eat meat, smoke, be homosexual, despise the bible. That's not me, but I did not create you, and I have not and will never live your life, die your death, nor will I be your judge. Certain things must be protected, such as family, but we are told OVER AND OVER in the bible, Love others and MIND YOUR OWN BUSINESS OTHERWISE!!! Just MHO.
