The Parable of the Good Vegetarian

Parable:

1. a short allegorical story designed to illustrate or teach some truth, religious principle, or moral lesson.

2. a statement or comment that conveys a meaning indirectly by the use of comparison, analogy, or the like.

This is a parable. Any similarity between actual people or Administrations, either living or dead, is purely coincidental.

Please ping. Thanks!

She’d have loved living with ice-aqge neanderthals, their diet turns out to have been nearly 100% meat, including other neanderthals and any other hominids or humans they could catch.

I think this was already posted once.

The Reagan Admin NEVER forced restaurants to serve meat

[Larry Lucido]

Oh so you’re just libelling the Reagans. I get it.

[Larry Lucido]

Whatever the poster’s intention, this thread is a total FAIL.

The Reagan Admin NEVER forced restaurants to serve meat

Yes, the Reagan Admin NEVER forced restaurants to serve meat. But a Liberal with a short knowledge of history might believe that they did.

It's a parable (a fictional literary form intended to convey a greater truth). It's written in terms that a liberal might understand to illustrate the implications of the HHS mandate on freedom of conscience. Read the whole thing to get the point.

[Huber]

See comments above and read the whole thing. If it still doesn’t make sense to you at the end, let me know.

It’s a clever analogy but it takes too long to “uncloak”. I’d try shortening it to one or two paragraphs. Then you won’t be accused of libeling the Reagans.

[Huber]

Thanks for the feedback. The Reagan bits were “red meat” for the liberal readers. My assumption is that many liberals especially hated Nancy for her “just say no to drugs” campaign.

[Huber]

Yum!

[GeronL]

right.

SOY IS EVIL!!

Read “The Whole Soy Story” for starters.

Thanks for improving this thread! Bacon makes everything better.

Fridays during Lent is also known as “fish day”.

[Tax-chick]

I understood it. Of course, I have a long experience with John Semmens’ threads ;-).

[Huber]

Since today is Friday, we had fish tacos tonight. ;-)

We can do another parable to deconstruct the big the “big soy” agenda some time in the future.
