    According to the Bible, we should be vegetarian. It says God made plants for us to eat and plants for animals to eat. It says nothing about eating the animals.

    Genesis 1:29-31 NRSVUE [29] God said, “See, I have given you every plant yielding seed that is upon the face of all the earth and every tree with seed in its fruit; you shall have them for food. [30] And to every beast of the earth and to every bird of the air and to everything that creeps on the earth, everything that has the breath of life, I have given every green plant for food.” And it was so. [31] God saw everything that he had made, and indeed, it was very good. And there was evening and there was morning, the sixth day.

      I mean, there’s also Cain and Able a little further in, where god takes a huge dump on Cain for not being a pastoralist.
