Quote:
t is contrary to human dignity to cause animals to suffer and die. ~Catechism of the Catholic Church, 2418
Those who eat meat break the Five Constant Virtues.
1. Killing animals to satisfy our taste is inhumane.
2. Killing animals, causing separation in their family, in order to feed our relatives are unrighteous.
3. Making befoul food offering from animal meat to the deities is disrespectful.
4. Praising the eating of animals as if it is God‟s gift so as to justify the killing of animals is unwise.
5. Lure and trick animals into the snare is untruthful. Worldly people must keep the five constant virtues; breaking these intentionally is to break the moral principles.
And the Lord God commanded the man, saying, of every tree of the garden thou mayest freely eat.
~ Genesis, Holy Bible[/b][/color]

If the catholic church really cared for the animals then they put more into them then humanity. They are largely responsible more more deaths on this earth then all the wars put together . If you observe the native american indian he eat flesh its about nature they never killed an anmial for fun they did it for food and shelter Skins were used as shelter and clothing Bones were fashioned into tools and the meat eaten. The asked for permission of the creator to kill before they did it. When they cut a tree down they would ask the tree first. The only took what they needed . When is the last time some one had supper with the POPE I bet you he is eating meat
