Четвертая Заповедь, назначающая седьмой день (субботу) днем отдыха для иудеев, относится не только к людям, но и к животным. В Вавилонском Талмуде даже говорилось, что человек может браться за еду лишь после того, как накормит своих животных, – поскольку они не могут сами позаботиться о себе.
Далее в Талмуде сказано, что, если нужно спасти жизнь животного или избавить его от страданий, человеку дозволяется нарушить святость субботнего отдыха (нужно вспомнить, что евреи считают субботу самым священным днем). Фактически, из иудейских обычаев ясно, что многочисленные указания касательно ритуального убийства животных изначально основывались на требованиях гуманности: причинять животному как можно меньше боли. Поэтому вегетарианство – логическое продолжение еврейских законов о пище, которые существуют для того, чтобы облегчить муки животных. Очевидно, что меньше всего вреда животным причинит тот, кто вообще прекратит есть мясо.
Для того же, кто не желает отказываться от мясной пищи, были установлены правила кошера. Главным в этих правилах является процесс очистки мяса от крови. Так нужно для того, чтобы соблюсти библейскую заповедь, которая запрещает человеку есть кровь зверей и птиц. Эта заповедь несколько раз повторяется в Ветхом Завете (например, Быт. 9:4, Лев. 17:14, Втор. 12:16). Книги Талмуда даже утверждают, что сущность жизненной силы находится в крови. Сходное представление можно найти и в раннем индуизме: убеждение, что, поскольку сердце гонит кровь по телу, оно также распространяет признак жизненной силы – сознание. Таким образом, кровь считается священной.
Для того, чтобы полностью согнать кровь из мяса, древние раввины изобрели способ, при котором мясо сначала вымачивают в воде для того, чтобы открыть поры, а затем посыпают солью, чтобы вытянуть кровь. Когда это делается под руководством раввина, – после того, как животное было убито по всем правилам shechita, «гуманной процедуры», – добросовестный иудей может поедать мясо с твердой уверенностью в том, что оно стало «кошерным», то есть угодным Богу. Слабое место этого процесса, однако, заключается в том, что длинная и трудоемкая процедура кошера практически никогда не доводится до конца: всю кровь удалить невозможно. Поэтому для соблюдения иудейской заповеди логично было бы придерживаться вегетарианской диеты, поскольку вегетарианец не ест никакой крови.
Мысль о вегетарианстве также просачивается в современные иудейские тексты. Примером может служить следующий отрывок из книги «Хаггада для освобожденного агнца»: «Вегетарианство – не столько разрыв с традицией, сколько возвращение к историческим корням» //9//. «Хаггада» заключает: «…в Библии нет повелений есть мясо, и нет никаких благословений для тех, кто его ест» //10//. «Иудейская энциклопедия» добавляет: «Мясо никогда не входило в число основных продуктов питания для детей Израиля; их диета состоит из растительных продуктов, которые в Библии обозначаются как «хлеб, вино и елей» (Втор. 11:14), или же из семи продуктов, перечисленных в книге Второзакония (8:8)» //11//. http://www.vedaclub.com/index.php?na...p=view&id=2047
Ну и какое отношение этот поток юдофобии имеет к теме "Беседы о правильном питании"?
С какого бы фига вдруг иудеи начали "насаждать кашрут гоям"? Что за воспалённый бред?
Кашрут имеет глубокие исторические корни и глубинный смысл заботы о здоровье своего племени.
И вот у юдофобов развивается паранойа: "Нет! Мы ни в коем случае не будем питаться правильно, пусть это будет тысячу раз естественно для человека, ВЕДЬ ИМЕННО ТАК ПИТАЮТСЯ ИУДЕИ!!!! ВЫ ЧТО, ХОТИТЕ НАС СДЕЛАТЬ SИДАМИ?!!!!
Пофиг мороз!
Ни одного аргумента против вегетарианства по существу вопроса!
Зато тысяча упоминаний о евреях.
РОСтОК, они вам что, жить не дают? Рожать детей, воспитывать их, совершенствовать самого себя? Евреи мешают?
Ну и молодцы евреи, что питаются правильнее, чем большинство наших.
А наши только возмущаться этим фактом будут, но палец о палец не ударят, чтобы самим начать это делать.
Какие же sиды паразиты! Задумали гоев перевести на правильное питание!
Фиг им! Как жрали смерть, так и будем!
А потом переваривая очередной трупчик, подумаем о вечном и о душе...
Цитата:
И следующей была дана заповедь: "Не убий", ибо жизнь дается каждому от Бога, а то, что дано Богом, человек не может отнять.
Ибо истинно говорю вам, от одной Матери происходит всё живое на земле. И потому тот, кто убивает, убивает брата своего. И от него Мать Земная отвернется и отнимет свою грудь, дающую жизнь. И ангелы её будут сторониться его, Сатана же найдет обитель свою в теле его.
И плоть убитых зверей в его теле станет его собственной могилой. Ибо истинно говорю вам, кто убивает - убивает самого себя, а кто ест плоть убитых зверей ест тела смерти.
Ибо в крови его каждая капля их крови превращается в яд, в его дыхании их дыхание превращается в зловоние, в его плоти их плоть - в гнойные раны, в его костях их кости в известь, в его внутренностях их внутренности - в гнилье, в его глазах их глаза - в пелену, в его ушах уши их - в серную пробку.
И смерть их станет его смертью. Ибо только через служение вашему Отцу Небесному ваши долги семи лет прощаются за семь дней. Но Сатана не прощает вам ничего, и ему вы должны будете заплатить за всё. "Око за око, зуб за зуб, рука за руку, стопа за стопу, огонь за огонь, рана за рану, жизнь за жизнь, смерть за смерть. Ибо возмездие за грех - смерть.
Не убивайте и не питайтесь плотью невинной жертвы своей, чтобы не стать вам рабами Сатаны. Ибо это путь страданий, и ведет он к смерти. Но исполняйте волю Бога, чтобы ангелы его могли служить вам на пути жизни. Итак, повинуйтесь словам Бога: "Взгляните, я дал вам все травы, несущие зерно, которые по всей земле, и все деревья, несущие плоды, дабы принимали вы в пищу. И каждому зверю земному и каждой птице парящей и всему, что ползет по земле и в чем есть дыхание жизни, дал я все травы зеленые в пищу. Также и молоко всех существ движущихся и живущих на земле должно быть пищей вашей. Так же, как дал я им травы зеленые, даю я вам их молоко. Но плоть и кровь вы не должны есть.
Ну и какое отношение этот поток юдофобии имеет к теме "Беседы о правильном питании"?

They are sacred and beautiful. I don't want to hurt them, neither in my own life nor through how my society and civilisation treat them.

Он так актуален в теме "Беседы о правильном питании"! Похрен, что совершенно непонятно, для чего он сюда впендюрен, - темы о евреях, раввинах и обрезании всегда интересны, говорят для здоровье полезно периодически побрызгивать слюной на монитор.
Кстати, в начало списка поместите Адольфа Алоизовича Шикльгрубера.
Списочек будет смотреться более кошерно.

Пофиг мороз! Ни одного аргумента против вегетарианства по существу вопроса!
Зато тысяча упоминаний о евреях.
РОСтОК, они вам что, жить не дают? Рожать детей, воспитывать их, совершенствовать самого себя? Евреи мешают?...
Какие же sиды паразиты! Задумали гоев перевести на правильное питание!
Фиг им! Как жрали смерть, так и будем!
А потом переваривая очередной трупчик, подумаем о вечном и о душе...
Мировоззрение человека зависит исключительно и только от того, как он питается! И как только он становится вегетарианцем, у него вырастают пейсы и отваливается крайняя плоть.

1. Действительно, к теме бесед о правильном питании это имеет небольшое отношение в силу того, что это только внешняя шелуха в луковице проблемы.
Я предложил начать очищать луковицу от шелухи, только и всего.
Поэтому, признаю свою ошибку в выборе раздела и прошу перенести мои последние посты в тему "Социально-технологические крючки и сети".
2. В связи с вышеизложенным предлагаю рассмотреть деятельность таких организаций, как:

Я такое нигде не утверждал.
Однако, обращу внимание, что имеется непосредственная самоподдерживающаяся циклическая взаимосвязь между определенными особенностями мировоззрения и особенностями питания индивида и наоборот. Таким образом, возможно "загнать" неподготовленную психику индивида в своеобразный самоподдерживающийся замкнутый круг, из которого без возникновения определённых жизненных обстоятельств очень сложно выйти в дальнейшем.
Я считаю, что это одна из древнейших управленческих технологий воздействия на сознание, применяемой раввинатом издревле.
В иноязычном интернете гораздо больше информации по данной тематике, чем в рунете. И это неспроста, потому что корни движения и инициатива исходит с Запада.
Это становится более чем просто увлекательным поиском "случайных"
ошибок.
В немецком Wiki в статье о актёре Дункане, нет ни слова о причинах инфаркта американскаго актёра.
И самое главное.
Нет ни слова о привержености Дункана вегетарианству.
Но мало этого.
И в статье электронной версии журнала Шпигель нет ни слова о том, что он стал вегетарианцем перед смертью.

Если учесть, что на западе финансируется волна зелёных и вегетарианских организаций, ведётся активный агитпроп элиты воспринявшей этот месидж, то вывод о том, что эта информация кому- то неудобна, возникает сам собой.
По моему мнению, бездумное и агрессивное вегетарианство, это один из способов индуцирования сердечных и других психо-соматических
заболеваний.
Но мало этого.
И в статье электронной версии журнала Шпигель нет ни слова о том, что он стал вегетарианцем перед смертью.
К примеру часто бывает, что человек, после пары-тройки десятков лет употреблявший алкоголь и табак, решает с этим делом завязать и.. это кончается для него фатально. Организм приученный к пагубному режиму не может выдержать перехода к здоровому образу жизни, поскольку для этого требуется некий запас энергии, которого у него недостаточно, вследствие предыдущих нездоровых норм жизни. Следует ли считать в связи с этим, что не пить и не курить - вредно и смертельно опасно для человека?
Пофиг мороз!
