Kay, where does it say that explicitly in the Bible? I was reading Genesis today and I it may be that different versions have slightly different translations but this is what I read in Genesis 1 ; 29-30. God said: "See, I give you every seed-bearing plant all over the earth and every tree that has seed-bearing fruit on it to be your food; and to all the animals of the land, all the birds of the air, and all the living creatures that crawl on the ground, I give all the green plants for food." This was before the Fall so it seems to me God's intentions were always for us to eat plants/fruits etc. If you can find the passages you refer to after the Fall, I would so appreciate that. And who is judging anyone's diet? Thank you Kay!
