Their fairy tale books says animals exist for humans, so good luck changing their minds.
Genesis 9:3
"Everything that lives and moves about will be food for you. Just as I gave you the green plants, I now give you everything."

- uni_rule 3y agoFor man was already eating others of mankind out!
- mensetmanusman 3y agoYou’re assuming minds exist, which many consider a fairy tale.
- mistermann 3y agoAlso engaging in mind reading, a supernatural, pseudo-scientific (tsk!) claim.
- amitport 3y agoTo be fair the Hebrew version use the word "remesh" which is not clearly translated to "everything that moves", but more to "invertebrates" or "insects" (I do not know what the author of Genesis actually meant, but the point is that it is not a clear translation). Additionally, in Genesis 1:24-26, remesh is listed among other types of animals such as beasts of the land and birds of the sky, so it is pretty clear that it is not meant as all animals. In these phrases remesh appears in the English translation as "creeping thing". https://biblehub.com/hebrew/remes_7431.htm https://biblehub.com/hebrew/remes_7431.htm
- pedantpedant 3y agoNot sure that Gen 1:24-26 is listing 'remesh' as it's own category of life or just being poetic. I'm not a Hebrew scholar though, just using interlinear.
