I think if I got a goat, it'd be a pet, and unslaughterable. What with those snootle, its ground tappers, and its wiggly listeners.

I didn't grow up on a farm, but I see no problem with raising a creature, giving it a good and healthy life, and ending it quickly and painlessly when the time comes. I think it makes us appreciate food more, once we realize where it comes from on a gut level.

My wife is from the Fiji islands and one time her grandpa pointed out to the goats and told her to choose her favorite. Of course, she chose the cutest one, not thinking any more of it because she was a little kid. They had goat curry that night.

I ate Mongolian beef today, and it was delicious, thanks be to God. I have three main reasons I would fully or partially abstain from meat. First is that everything tasty is cute. Second, their minds and mine have a common ancestor. Third, because I think I can, especially if I had fresh and abundant dairy

When she was six, her parents made her choose which chicken would be served with dumplings that night. To her credit she picked the jackass rooster no one was sad to see go, to hear her family tell it.

I believe cats are non edible in most of the world, so I have one. Yeah, bunny is too cute for eatings. Chickens and anything bigger? Less so. Now, if the world state declared we all need to go vegetarian to fight climate change, I'd do it. Just give me plenty of delicious buckwheat.

honestly scientists going "we're all going to eat bugs so we're developing bug recipes" and then just like... making whole roast bugs in a pile are why you don't have scientists cater your bbq that's not related but your thing about going veg for the environment made me think of it. get chefs in on your bug meals, scientists, and then maybe i'll think about it but until then stop trying to act like a steak and a fuckin pile of bugs are equal

Yeah, I had bugfood back in the spring, and on one side of the plate I had grasshoppers in fried dough and the other I had a pile of mealworms fried as is. I mean, the worms weren't bad per se, but there was just something revolting about eating maggot-looking things in mediocre cayenne rub. If we want people eating this stuff, put it in dough, it tasted great. Goobish posted:I'm glad I'm not the only person with a goal of goat stewardship. Someday. Someday I'll be with goats.

If it's the beef I'm thinking of, it was about an article by Matthew Walther--who is incredibly Catholic--about the Harvey Weinstein fallout: "Against Sex." The "gnostic" objection came from his description of sex as "meat rubbed against meat for a few minutes."

I don't understand fixation on sex stuff. Sure, it's very intimate and important but also takes up a small fraction of our time. Meanwhile, most of my students are missing half their teeth by age 30ish or younger due to lovely commodity food diets and poor access to dental care. Just to name one example. edit: I'm not saying sexual issues are unimportant, just that many churches put an incredibly disproportionate emphasis on them over other more immediate concerns.

some of it is the medicalization of homosexuality, yeah: it repudiated the incoherence of the “sodomite,” which was the only figure in whom homosexual behavior was publicly legible in the west prior to medicalization. but this legibility was severely limited, because even people who regularly had same-sex liaisons didn’t gloss themselves as sodomites: alan bray wrote a v good book about this (Homosexuality in Renaissance England). this was a larger part of the development of civil society and the decoupling of public affairs from direct legislation by the church, which culminated in the massive catholic identity crisis that arose with the loss of the papal states to italian unification and wasn’t even mostly resolved until vatican 2

HEY GAIL posted:When I read things from the Fathers, they almost never care about this. Why the change? Maybe it was so the laity could feel involved in the 19th century? Maybe for secular reasons relating to the development of the 19th century state, I know that the concept of "the homosexual" developed around this time as something opposed to the traditional gender roles which were supposed to uphold the state. Didn't Henry VIII (British version) have a real thing against homosexuality and used it as an excuse to close more monasteries? Though I do agree that a lot of the obsession with sex comes out of the same place that the "blood purity" cults of the 19th century come from, this fear of an encroaching "other" and the uncleaness associated with getting your gently caress on.

Tias posted:So hallow's eve is coming up, do you liturgigoons do anything cool for that? it used to be traditional to hold a vigil for all saints on october 31st; people would read from the lives of the saints, pray compline and matins, and then go visit the local graveyard to decorate the graves of their loved ones. they might also make a point of visiting and venerating local relics or local places of particular significance to a saint. the really good poo poo comes in the following two days: hallowmas gives us the liturgy of all saints and, in the anglophone world, some absolutely baller hymnody. i'm pretty sure any anglophone church that doesn't celebrate hallowmas with Vaughan Williams's "For All the Saints" is doing it wrong. then of course comes all souls' day, the day of prayer for the dead. it's traditional to hold a requiem mass on that day, and if you can find a really traditional one with black vestments, it owns pretty hard. gimme that good Dies Irae poo poo and a homily about the dread of the final judgment and the need for fasting and repentance and i'll be happy as a clam.
