Indeed, vegetarianism expresses compassion towards humans as well as animals, since it results in healthier people, helps feed the hungry, and promotes a cleaner, more sustainable environment. What animals do should not dictate human morality. Other animals may have to eat each other to live, but humans have a choice. We believe that vegetarianism expresses the love, compassion, and peace of Christ. Vegetarians celebrate these holidays fully and joyously without consuming animals.
Numerous cookbooks offer tasty vegetarian meals, from quick and easy to complex and elegant.
A place to start is to become vegetarian. Then, we believe, Christians should try to reduce their consumption of animal products as much as possible. Vegetarians make a compassionate choice that expresses a faith in God's creative goodness. Many vegetarians, aware of the cruelties associated with other animal products, eventually choose not to consume them. We should always remember that Christians strive to follow Christ's example of pure love and compassion, and most Christians would prefer that their diets not hurt animals, squander scarce resources, and harm their bodies.
