...Vegetarian Apostles

A friend of mine in Croatia has been doing some research on
Vegetarianism and Early Christianity. I thought you might like to read
these excerpts from a book that is pending publication:

'No less than seven of Jesus' twelve disciples refused meat food (the
rest we do not know). This naturally reflects the teachings of Jesus,
as: "...a servant is not greater than his master..." (John 14.16).

The seven are:

1. Peter: ..."whose food was bread, olives and herbs..." (Clem.Hom.XII,6)

2. James: Church Father Eusebius, quoting Hegesippus (about 160 AD)
that "...James, the brother of the Lord was holy from birth. He drank
no wine or ate the flesh of animals..." (Eusebius, Church History
II,Ch XXIII,5-7)

(Note: James being a Vegetarian "from his mother's womb on" says a lot
about Mary's diet. Which again would lead to a conclusion as to Jesus'
life-style.)

3. Thomas: The apocryphal Acts of Thomas (Ch. 20), which actually were
widely in use among early Christian sects, depict these disciples of
Jesus as ascetics: "He continually fasts and prays, and abstaining
from eating of flesh and drinking wine, he eats only bread, with salt
and drink and water, and wears the same garment in fine weather and
winter, and accepts nothing from anyone, and gives whatever he has to
others."

4. Matthew: "It is far better to be happy than to have a demon
dwelling with us. And happiness is found in the practice of virtue.
Accordingly, the apostle Matthew partook of seeds and nuts, fruits and
vegetables without flesh. And John, who carried temperance to the
extreme, ate locusts and wild honey...." (Clement of Alexandria, The
Instructor,II.I,16: On Eating) (Note here the strong hint of Clemens
towards the Vegetarianism of John the Baptist)

5. Matthias: (who filled the place of Judas (Acts 1:21-26). His food
as told by Church Father Clement of Alexandria was the same as
Matthew's. (Clement/ Stromata III,4,26)

6. Andrew and 7. Jude: Andrew (Peter's brother in both flesh and
faith) and Jude of Bethsaida, originally two of John the Baptist's
followers, must have followed the Baptist's austere diet. (See above
under Matthew)'

Yeah I would have probably said that vedas might be wrong as u said, provided vedas had ONLY talked about the age of the universe!
But then thay talk about a thousand other different scientific facts which modern science totally agrees to. Read the books like ‘Dancing Wi Li Master’, ‘Tao of Physics’ etc and you will know more.

It was Oppenheimer, Father of modern atomic bomb who saw the description of nuclear weapons in these ancient texts.

It was quantum physicsists like Schrodinger, Bohr, Heisenberg who saw quantum mechanical descriptions in the Vedas..

It is in these vedas (to be more precisde in the Atharvaveda) that place value based arithmetic has been described which is the foundation of modern science. As Einstein said ‘We should be be grateful to the Indians for teaching us how to count without which no worthwhile scientific discovery could have been made’

It is in these vedas that Ayurveda the world’s first medical system has been described which is a total herbal based medical system and even today is known to cure ailments without any side effects. While western medicinde (say for ex diclofenac, anti histhamines etc) try to target the disease, ayurveda fights the disease by strengthening the immune system which in turn fights agaisnt the disease.

THe Yogic exercises which have been described in the vedas are practised world wide today and is known to cure a lot of hormore related and muscular and bone related issues.

I can go on and on with this list…

When so many things are scientifically correct, it makes little sense to doubt the vedic calculations of the age of the universe.
Please note that most of the current scientific discoveries have been made in the last 500 years or so… Vedas reigned over 6000 years ago even by the minimal estimate (See NASA geological proof on Saraswati river and its extinction which has been described in the vedas).

Can you imagine the kind technology that might have been invented and the kind of scientific discoveries that would have been made by humans in the period of so many thousand years ?
