Produktbeschreibung
"Until relatively recently, vegetarianism was a dietary alternative for Christians-a mere option or perhaps, for some, a conviction. But the biblical tradition recognized that a plant-based diet isn't more spiritual or moral than eating meat. Meat-eating is legitimate for humans; it is not prohibited and is even blessed by God. Increasingly, secular organizations and activists have been pressuring Christians to turn their freedom into bondage and to adopt false commandments based on activist convictions. Voices from inside the church have joined the chorus. This group of scholars have applied their expertise in biblical studies, theology, philosophy, resource management, communication, and generational pig farming to write an accessible response for Christians who rightly believe that meat-eating is a gift from God. This book responds to leading challenges from animal activism outside the church-offering important biblical and practical correctives to a growing but misguided compassion."
