Paul McCartney Calls for Meat-Free Mondays to Curb Animal Gas

By Alex Morales

June 15 (Bloomberg) -- Paul McCartney, the former Beatle and vegetarian pop star, asked fans to go meatless on Mondays to help slow global warming by reducing the amount of gaseous emissions from farm animals.

Cows, pigs and sheep bred for human consumption discharge millions of tons of methane, a more potent greenhouse gas than carbon dioxide. Livestock emissions account for about 18 percent of greenhouse gases, more than all the world’s cars, the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization says.

“If you want to fight climate change, it’s not only about electricity and coal-fired power plants: Agriculture is a huge contributor too and meat consumption is a big problem,” Jan van Aken, a biologist and agriculture campaigner for the Greenpeace environmental group, said today in a telephone interview from Hamburg. It’s “mainly burps” and animal flatulence, he said.

For those who choose to follow the Illuminated Double "Sgt Pepper"......can someone explain this to me?????

1 Corinthians 10:25 Everything that is sold in a meat market keep eating, making no inquiry on account of your conscience, 26 for " to Jehovah belong the earth and that which fills it.................or
Acts 10:9 The next day as they were pursuing their journey and were approaching the city, Peter went up to the housetop about the sixth hour to pray. 10 But he became very hungry and wanted to eat. While they were preparing, he fell into a trance 11 and beheld heaven opened and some sort of vessel descending like a great linen sheet being let down by its four extremities upon the earth; 12 and in it there were all sorts of four-footed creatures and creeping things of the earth and birds of heaven. 13 And a voice came to him: “Rise, Peter, slaughter and eat!” 14 But Peter said: “Not at all, Lord, because never have I eaten anything defiled and unclean.” 15 And the voice [spoke] again to him, the second time: “You stop calling defiled the things God has cleansed.” 16 This occurred a third time, and immediately the vessel was taken up into heaven.....................or
1 Timothy 4:1 However, the inspired utterance says definitely that in later periods of time some will fall away from the faith, paying attention to misleading inspired utterances and teachings of demons, 2 by the hypocrisy of men who speak lies, marked in their conscience as with a branding iron; 3 forbidding to marry, commanding to abstain from foods which God created to be partaken of with thanksgiving by those who have faith and accurately know the truth. 4 The reason for this is that every creation of God is fine, and nothing is to be rejected if it is received with thanksgiving, 5 for it is sanctified through God’s word and prayer over [it].

Doubt highly, however.

Paul's been dead since 1966. Freemason's advice is as useful as flouride in the mouth......NOT! Tell this demon to shove it where the sun don't shine. Imagine, living a 40 something + year old lye. Some peoples children. Live and let die, eh traitor? Follow your own advice, and get out of the dead man's house, it doesn't BELONG TO YOU!!!!

Anybody for a barbecue? I'm in the mood for some spare ribs, a nice juicy steak, and maybe a brat to top it all off. Oh, and don't forget the side dishes, especially the beans, LOL

I've always tried to balance out my diet and I don't need anybody to tell me I should not eat meat a certain day of the week to save the planet from all the cows, pigs and sheep dropping A@@. I mean, how ridiculous can you get with this crap? (pun intended)
