No. And I don't want to know what you do for a living either.

Why are you avoiding posting about "spiritual health", the topic?
Why?

Let's use "spiritual" here in a generic sense, and not as it relates to any god or religion. This is a completely humanistic approach. No direct references to "divine inspiration". Please!
The reason I bring this up is because of another thread where an individual is discussed.
"Spiritual health". The whole person. What constitutes a spiritually healt arisons between good and bad. Things that make a person either well or ill spiritually.
Originally posted by DasaHave you simply not met any spiritual people who are not vegetarians? I have. Plenty. I am not talking about your definition of "spiritual". I am talking about the conventional definition of "spiritual".

Animal slaughter separates us from understanding and loving God.
While every living thing is eternally spiritual and that can never change - the act of animal slaughter separates us from ever gaining true understanding of ourselves and God.

Originally posted by jaywillHe calls the Vedas "the authority". This is what you're up against here.Spiritual comes from spirit.
Spirit is synonymous with the soul.
Spirit is NOT synonomous with soul.
But I respect the restrictions of the thread. And we were asked not to refer to the Bible (in so many words, it certainly included the Bible).
Without the Bible there is no way, no way that I would know that spirit and soul are ...[text shortened]... to, I don't think we could realize that the human soul and the human spirit are not identical.

How could he possibly ignore as the authority a book filled to the brim with the wisdom of God, in favor of a rambling story book with no point? But he does, and that is why he does not understand.
Originally posted by Dasayou really don't mind meat eaters. it's the cow eaters you have a 'beef' with. you worship a cow, they eat it. every hamburger must be an insult spear thrust at the heart of your religion.

It could never be an authority when it supports the slaughter of Gods creatures.
