If God didn’t want us to eat animals, he wouldn’t have made them out of meat.

God corrected the error of vegetarianism with the great flood. Vegetarians were just too horrible to save.

Lo:

Genesis 1:29 (to Adam)
Here are all the herbs, God told them, that seed on earth, and all the trees, that carry in them the seeds of their own life, to be your food; (note, nothing about animules)

and then later

Genesis 9:3 (to Noah after the flood)
This creation that lives and moves is to provide food for you; I make it all over to you, by the same title as the herbs that have growth. 4 Only, you must not eat the flesh with the blood still in it. (meat is now on the menu!)

If God meant for man to be vegetarian, we’d have our eyes on the sides of our head like other prey animals and no canine teeth for tearing meat.

Speaking of Bible i have taken to gleaning.
The farmer who rented my land was supposed to get it top dressed with nitrogen. Well the company he hired missed my field. Corn was short and i noticed the combine missed corn. So i gleaned it. Found out i liked doing it. And provided exercise. Did my cousin and two other farmers fields. I think i got enuff to feed out a hog next year...
