RE: Anyone here ever have a passion on spirituality?
Brian, the problem with your post is not that it is controversial, it is that you showed a total ignorance of world religions. Then when people attack you, you use the technique of "the fact that people think I am wrong shows that I'm just so right" when actually your problem is you are totally ignorant on the facts.
For instance, while some Hindu sects are vegetarian, sacrifice was widespread during the Vedic period in india, and is actually mentioned in Hindu holy texts including the Rig Veda and the Kalika Purana. In fact in Tamil Nadu animal sacrifice is still practiced among hindu populations, and a normal part of the practice.
By contrast, in Judaism, animal sacrifice ended with the destruction of the Second Temple. Since the temple is the only place where Korban (the hebrew word for sacrifice) was allowed to happen, there has not been any animal sacrifice since that time.
