Speaking of Christians, and Trump, of course... washingtonpost.com Why all Christians should go vegan The Bible is clear, and early Christians understood it: Animals are meant to be our companions, not our food. Franklin Graham, the son of pastor Billy Graham and heir to his evangelical empire, has gone vegan. That’s right: Perhaps the US’s best-known evangelical leader has stopped consuming animal products. If that statement seems too outrageous to be believed, see his Facebook announcement for yourself. What brought about such a change in the man who will lead a prayer at Donald Trump’s inauguration? Almost all of what he discussed in his original announcement, and his follow-up tweets, has to do with his health. And this is a very sound strategy: A plant-based diet is tremendous as a bulwark against everything from cancer to heart disease. Graham also invoked the Bible in his Facebook statement, pointing out that when “Daniel went on a complete vegetable diet and after 10 days his appearance was better than the others who hadn’t.” But the Bible has even more interesting things to say about animal products and our eating habits. <snip>
