Genesis 9:3
Every moving thing that lives shall be food for you. And as I gave you the green plants, I give you everything.
There were even instructions on what animals could and could not be eaten, of course god gave permission, well assuming that you believe the bible to be true that is.
Here is a good article from a Jewish perspective

I'll just point out that Little Rik is neither a Jew nor a Christian, so presenting arguments concerning the bible to him is simply evidence of a misplaced assumption. Little Rik follows tantric yoga, specifically that taught by the Amanda Marga movement. He could care less about what the bible says about eating meat.
Thanks for the heads up Jorg, Rik's posts make much more sense now.
Nothing is not an alternative to anything, an alternative is still a thing that must have properties to be alternative. Just because we can conceive something does not make it a possible reality.
We do not even know if 'Something rather than nothing' is even a question we can justify logically.
I think this in essence was the OP's point, a mighty god for whom there should be nothing but evidence for is reduced to sophistry and word games.
'Those who ask a lot of questions may seem stupid, but those who don't ask questions stay stupid'
