Vegetarianism, Reincarnation, Questions of Fallibility In the Early Christian Church

Vegetarianism, Reincarnation, Questions of Fallibility

VEGETARIANISM:


For 3 centuries after the death of Jesus, early Christians practiced Jesus' vegetarian diet. Paul too took the Nazarene vow which was among
other things a vow of vegetarian diet. In 325, appointees of the emperor,
Constantine, a nonvegetarian,
removed at the Council of Nice references to Jesus' vegetarianism. Jesus had thrown out of the temple
the moneychangers... secondary to their role as butchers
of animals to be sacrificed. Isaiah: "I delight not in your
blood sacrifice".
Genesis 1:29 had proclaimed a fruitarian diet based on
foods given by trees vines bushes and plants without killing
the plant or fruits, nuts, berries, seeds, eggplant, squash, beans, peas, tomatoes, etc. "Behold I have given you herbyielding seed. To
you that shall be for meat." Father Lengwin has hypthosesized that the apple eaten by Adam and Eve was
actually the first heart of a butchered animal.

REINCARNATION:
From http://www.adishakti.org/_/great_cover_up_...incarnation.htm


"Emperor Justinian wanted Origen's writings and teachings to be condemned and
destroyed but Pope Vigilius refused to sign a papal decree condemning Origen's
teachings on reincarnation. As a result of his disobedience, the Emperor had the
Pope arrested and put into jail. In 543, Justinian convoked the Fifth General
Council of the Church and told the Pope he would sign into doctrine whatever the
council decided. On the way there, under guard, the Pope escaped to avoid being
forced to condemn Origen's writings. The Emperor commanded the council to
continue despite the Pope's refusal to attend."

FALLIBILITY OR INFALLIBILITY:
It was not until 1870, nearly 1900 years after Jesus' death, that Pius IX called and controlled a Vatican council which
declared him and future popes infallible when speaking 'ex cathedra' or from the
papal chair.

Jesus has said "Let him with ears to hear hear".
