I disagree. Dasa speaks much truth. His problem seems to be He thinks
He knows all truth and He does not except the truth of Christianity. He
thinks it is another religion of the animal killers and the unenlightened.
He would rather be born over and over again in random bodies until by
chance he should stumble upon whatever he thinks he is looking for
spiritually than except the free gift from God.
You cannot love God and kill Gods creatures at the same time.
Its contradictory to love God and not his creation.

The Theory: The Many Worlds Theory
The Crazy Part: The part where you realize that somewhere in some parallel universe you just died while reading this sentence.
What It Says: The Many Worlds Theory rejects The Copenhagen Interpretations crazy idea that particles can change their behavior seemingly at will, and replaces it with the much crazier idea that the only reason we think particles are changing their behavior is that were only seeing that particles action in one universe, rather than the infinite number of universes that actually exist. So an observed particle with two optionssay, to pound beers at a Van Halen tribute show or drop E and storm a techno clubactually does both, even though we may only observe the techno club, in some other universe, parallel to our own, that particle is rocking out to Eruption instead of rubbing itself ferociously on anything with a body temperature.
So What Does This Do For Me? If you buy into the Many Worlds Theory, the implications are infinite. And lets be clear about what infinite means here. For every action youve ever taken, every movement youve ever made, even down to the atomic level, theres a parallel universe out there where you did something else instead. Anything else. Instead of learning guitar, you burst into flames. Instead of opening the fridge, you freebased black tar heroin. Instead of nude rock climbing, you went nude bungee jumping. Instead of reading this article, you worked productively and got a handsome raise. Think about it: in some parallel universe out there, you and your high school sweetheart are making hot, reconciliatory love atop Bob Feeneys smoldering corpse after you killed a laser-breathing velociraptor with your bare hands. If that thought doesnt make you feel better about how mundane your actual life is, we dont know what will.
Wait, It Gets Worse: If you think The Many Worlds Theory is a tad too far fetched an explanation for some electrons behaving weirdly, youre not alone. In an effort to simplify things, scientists have come up with The Many Minds Theory, which says your brain splits up at the instant you make an observation, and then your many brains observe every possible outcome. Yes, thats right, an infinite number of parallel brains, existing without universes (let alone skulls) to house them in. Awesome. Much simpler.

Reasons?
A VERY simple example:
The circumference divided by the diameter of a circle will always equal pi, no matter where in a universe (infinite or not) you look. To argue otherwise will mean it isn't a circle.
Physical laws will still apply, regardless of how big the universe is.
These physical boundaries could mean that you have infinite gradients of life forms which FIT within these physical laws, but that doesn't mean infinite possibilities exist outside it as well.

roast beef, baked salmon, chicken, turkey, rabbit, and squirrel. I
was just kidding, but seriously, why must you think we must hate
God's creatures just because we also enjoy eating them for food.
That seems ridiculous to me.
P.S. God also gave man certain animals that he could eat for food
after He gave us certain plants and fruit.

no he did not, his original purpose was that humans were to be vegetarians, he gave
no mandate to Adam and Eve to eat flesh of any kind. You charlatan, RJH!

Matthew 15:10-11
Thus you have made the commandment of God of no effect by your tradition. Hypocrites! Well did Isaiah prophesy about you, saying: 'These people draw near to Me with their mouth, And honor Me with their lips, But their heart is far from Me. And in vain they worship Me, Teaching as doctrines the commandments of men.’
Matthew 15:3-9

Animals slaughtered suffer very much and are very fearful of the slaughterers house.
This is why Christianity is a false religion - because it produces insensitive and ignorant followers.

level has nothing to do with Christianity for a little child can be a Christian.
Unlike Judism and your religion, what I eat or drink also has nothing to do
with Christianity. I don't know what false information you have received
that you think Christianity produces insensitive and ignorant followers. Can
you give an example of the teachings of Christ that would produce ignorant
or insensitive followers? Most who call themselves Christian, like myself, are
still learning and striving to fully follow the teachings of Christ. But we do
realize we do not have to be perfect to be accepted by Christ. We can come
to Him as we are and He will change us because we can not do it by ourselves.
All Christians believe it is wrong to be cruel to animals but there may be some
division on what that means. There are some Christians, who like yourself,
will not eat the flesh of animals. They are in the minority, I must admit. I
know of no saying of Christ that indicates eating flesh is wrong because He
is reported to have eaten fish himself. When speaking of unwashed hands
He said the following:
"It is not what enters into the mouth that defiles the man, but what proceeds
out of the mouth, this defiles the man."
"Do you not understand that everything that goes into the mouth passes into
the stomach, and is eliminated? But the things that proceed out of the mouth
come from the heart, and those defile the man. For out of the heart come evil
thoughts, murders, adulteries, fornications, thefts, false witness, slanders.
These are the things which defile the man; but to eat with unwashed hands
does not defile the man.”
(Matthew 15:11,17-20 New American Standard Bible)
As Christians we are free. We are not restricted to adhere to some strick
man-made rules that some consider necessary for salvation. We are only
required to believe and put our trust in Christ for He has paid the price of
our sins with His blood. This is regardless of how foolish you or anybody
may think it is. We are not required to be serious at all times, we are free
to joke and have fun.
