Today, in a symbolic act, Iranians set fire to the flags of Israel and the United States, as well as an obelisk and a statue of Baal—which they described as a symbol of Satan—in various cities across Iran in response to the release of the Epstein documents.
Literally chuckling, first sip of coffee barely swallowed in time to avoid spilling!
I'm currently on the Jesus was not a vegan bend. This one is pretty tough I've gotta say
Hard to say, but he celebrated Passover after the trumphal entry on the ass, and was welcomed and financed by enough people "of means," that lamb was probably served. Additionally there are the five loaves and two fishes miracle, so I'm not sure. I lean toward agreement with you, although it's possible he restrained from fish and lamb, himself, as we're simply not told.
I will encourage you he literally told the disciples not to take everything so literally, after the Sermon on the Mount, when asked why he taught in parables. My latest hypothesis is that in certain instances, "dead/death" referenced spiritually dead (eating from the tree of life, dead bury the dead), and the reason his teachings not being for those who didn't understand the parables is because those people had hardened their hearts (empty cups), and hadn't done the spiritual work (being spiritually alive) to understand. Wait until you start digging into Judaism and Jewish mystacism! 🤯 The soul is truly taught differently!
Anyway, best along your journey, may it ever bring you closer to union within yourself and the Divine.
