Ya. Gautama Buddha was not a vegetarian.
He ate what what was given to him.

He knew his last dish was poison but he still ate them.
Some said the last dish was a dish of mushrooms but other believed, it was wild boar flesh.

Monks started to be vegetarians probably originated from China.

Nobody knows what fruit it was.  Why? Because the Bible didn't say and we are unable to find the garden of Eden till now to see what fruit it was. 

Let's just say that our ancestors ate the forbidden fruit and since then their nature had been corrupted by that sin of disobedience, and all generations are born with the sin nature.

No, I'd never claimed to be perfect.  Wink

If he ate meat knowing that the animals were mercilessly slaughtered, and entered Nirvana as many claimed, I find that to be a contradiction in terms. Rolleyes

Is the company above a fruit company?

No obviously right

So we ate the apple
Just like the apple fruit company do not produce nor sell any apple

The apple are not the apple we know

As for the garden of Eden
The garden moves!
Adam and eves are banish from the garden

The garden moves

You find it's a contradiction cos you dunno what really went on.

At the same time, when I read the bible and it's littered with many examples of God getting angry, that's a contradiction.

According to what one Christian told me. Bible use Apple as story.

Actually they Adam n eve was trick into having sex in the holy place. So when their eyes was open they found themselves naked. So cover with leave.

So why eating Apple can be condemn??? How can God so siao chi get angry because they eat apple. Not even durian.

Bible holy book don use word like sex n make love. It will state so n so go to sleep with so n so because it is a holy book.

All religion are good only the follower are lousy.
If everyone follow their religion properly there will be peace.

Which religion said can steal n kill???
Which religion said can drink Tiger Beer??
Which religion said u can sleep with yr neighbour wife???

It was Buddha's disciple Devadatta that suggested that monks to be strict vegetarians. Buddha rejected his idea but he told him the monks can do that if they wish to.

God was angry at sin and what it caused the human being to become. You mean you sexpected Him to rub His hands together, let out a sadistic heehaw and yell 再来一次when a man slashed another man with a knife in a fit of satanic rage?

Now can you enlighten the world what was going on when Gautama chomped on meat and peepur said he shant be coming back to this world because he:d attained nirvana wor. Rolleyes

Stories are written by humans. 
The true teachings are in the sutras. 

  • "We are what we think. ...
  • "The root of suffering is attachment."
  • "Nothing is forever except change."
  • "Do not look for a sanctuary in anyone except yourself."
  • "If you find no one to support you on the spiritual path, walk alone."
  • "All that we are is the result of what we have thought."

Don't start beating around the bush, play with words, twist and turn like you had been doing whenever you lost it

The bible says:

There is a way that seems right to a man, but it is the way of Death.

Jeses says:

I am the Way, the Truth and the Life. No one comes to the Father but by Me.

It's not a fruit company least of all one which sells Apples. It only named its company Apple and decided that its logo would be an 🍎.

A mighty poor analogy, yours.

It's very pitiful the way lvlrsSTI spams porn here instead of engaging forummers in tcss.

It's the anti social behavior of a psychopath.

With his lvlrsSTI user id, he appears normal enough, even starting threads.. with his Observer user id, his mental illness shows.

It's pretty tedious for him to type in words, Google porn peektures, type in some more words, cut and paste... I tried playing his game so I know... but he thinks his time is well spent on stalking me wor.  Rotfl
