Meaty Musings...

Nasty title for a blog, I know, but it's the first alliterative title involving meat that I could come up with. In fact, maybe I should change the actual name of my blog from "With Eyes Closed" to "Meaty Musings." Food for thought... So - what am I referring to, exactly, when I say "meaty musings" you're no doubt pondering...
I think I'm becoming a vegetarian, God help me.
I just found myself baking brownies (!), and after breaking the egg into the bowl, I was thinking, "this is some creature's unborn child." WHAT IS WRONG WITH ME? I don't think those things. I think things like, "Golly, these ribs sure are tasty," and "Gosh, nothing beats a movie theater hot dog."
I DON'T WANT TO BE A VEGETARIAN. My pastor doesn't want me to be a vegetarian! I'm pretty sure my wife would flip out, too. Eva would be happy. She'd say I "joined her team." She'd feel like she had an ally in this den of carnivores.
Is my 9-year-old converting me to the dark side? Is it the dark side? You're pondering again... I can feel it. Well, these questions may or may not be answered in the near or distant future. Stand by...

Human beings and every other animal on the planet have been eating eachother since the dawn of time. It's like a fun little game we have going on.
If the entire human race stopped eating meat, do you think we'd continue on strongly as a race? Say we lived on a planet with no meat and we all had to be vegetarians. Would we be a strong noble race, or would be evolve to become man-cows?
Now if you'll excuse me, I have to go as I am getting hamburger juice all over my keyboard. EAT AND TYPE! EAT AND TYPE!
Baby, it's all good. Eat the meat!
If God didn't want us to eat animals, why did he make them out of meat?
I know a Pastor, and he is all about being a carnivore. If you must become a kinder, gentler human, at least go buy organic, non-growth hormone, free-range meat that was petted each day of its life over oat Wild Oats or something.
