“And of course, the book of Genesis, really is – it’s a story… for the first 1,000 years of that story, the vegan prescription was in effect, it wasn’t until the flood that anything different was said to be other than you should be consuming plants and only plants. So, when you think about it, why did the flood occur, according to the biblical story, it’s because human beings had sunk to such a low spiritual level, that God felt compelled to wipe out human beings, except for Noah and his family. So, within that context, the permission to eat meat was granted, but it certainly wasn’t in any type of reward for good behavior. It was a concession, a reluctantly granted concession for the human beings when human beings were at their lowest spiritual state.” The history of pandemics that have plagued the Earth have a chilling common denominator, one that is immediately linked to the raising of livestock. “Let’s just look at the facts, and we launched as an organization a campaign called ‘Toward a Pandemic-Free World.’ And toward a pandemic-free world, which you can find us at ‘pandemic-free.org.’ We have lots of information about how these pandemics start.” “We know that the bird – that influenza, the flu, every type of flu, getting from birds, from keeping birds, treating birds as poultry, as a food source. So, there’s no question if we’re going to move towards a pandemic-free world, we need to change our relationship to animals and stop eating them.” “Almost all of the meat that we eat comes from animals, who suffer either a little, or a lot, and TSA-AR BAALEI CHAYIM, not causing pain to another living creature, is a central principle of the Jewish tradition, and we violate it every time we eat something that we know was factory farmed, was de-beaked, de-clawed, was treated cruelly.” “I encourage people. As soon as the pandemic allows, to go to the Loving Hut restaurants, because another great advocacy tool for our movement is delicious food. So, at every Loving Hut restaurant I’ve been to, the food has been terrific. It’s been great to take non-vegans there, and show them you can eat the same food, but they can be vegan, you are not missing anything.”
