TE>You've probably heard about PETA's latest little jihad already.
TE>JESUS WAS A VEGETARIAN!!!!
No, I hadn't heard.  Hogwash!  But then, it *is* PETA.
TE>Therefore, for religious reasons, all
TE>*true* Christians must renounce meat and all animal products.
Nonsense!
TE>They're claiming that the Bible was altered in the fourth century
TE>to include the fishes in the "fishes and loaves" tale and that
TE>Jesus Christ never once touched meat in his life.
Ridiculous!  Jesus was a Jew who observed Jewish law.  The Last Supper
was a Passover meal, celebrated in Jesus' time just as it had been since
Moses.  Central to it was lamb, commanded to be eaten as part of that
meal by God (Exodus 12:3-11).
TE>Comments? (keep it G-rated please).  I normally wouldn't feel it
TE>necessary to make that request with you, but this *may* be an
TE>exceptional situation.
Hehehe... Exceptional situation perhaps, but regardless, I'm under
imperative to bridle the tongue.  
TE>Shoshona, feel free to jump in this one also.  Your perspective
TE>will be interesting to hear.
TE>Oh yeah, the website with the "proofs" of this contention is at
TE>www.jesus-online.com.  Now I really wish I was back on the net to
TE>check this one out myself.
No proofs there, just assertions.
