Without reference to the bible (since no one should have to read that thing) it is obvious that God intended us to eat animals. Otherwise, why would He have made them out of meat?
But I disagree with any dominion bullshit. That might have worked when we lived in small, scattered bands. But now that we control so much of the land we had better tend to the health of the food web. Otherwise if global warming isn't bad enough, a greatly denuded biosphere may be.
Well I have cover to cover twice and who knows how often in chunks. Two things stand out. Most christians have not read it at all,k thus missing exactly how horrible their deity really is, and most miss the borked morality that the bible promulgates.
Sure, if one is willing to brush such fundamental matters under the carpet, one could make up anything.
