Parallels

Finding and connecting the parallels between my faith as a Christian and my journey as a carnivore.

It’s been awhile since I’ve been inspired to write one of these but when I came across this during my devotion this morning it was just too good to pass up. I hope you can benefit from it.

I came across this quote from Blaise Pascal who was a brilliant 17th-century French mathematician and physicist who had a dramatic Christian conversion experience and thereafter devoted much of his thought to Christianity and philosophy.

“Men despise religion. They hate it and are afraid it may be true. The cure for this is first to show that religion is not contrary to reason, but worthy of reverence and respect. Next make it attractive, make good men wish it were true, and then show that it is.”

WOW! Does that not resonate with carnivore or what? Very profound on the Christian side of things but speaks volumes to the carnivore community as well.

People don’t downplay what we do because they believe it’s wrong so much as because it might be true and requires a change in themselves that they are afraid to commit to. So when confronted with the unbelievers try to be patient and kind to them and give them a reason to wish it were true. You are the best example of that truth.

Keep Calm and Carnivore On.

  • great post. Scott

  • This is definitely spot on for many people. Food is sacred. Nobody wants to believe that you might need to give up your beloved [fill-in-the-blank ultra processed food] or that it might be bad for you
