To the editor:

In an article by Rabbi Akiva Gersh, "The Vegan Rabb," he confirms what the wisest in all religions have foretold for centuries. In Judaism, there is a concept called "hiddur mitzvah" which could, and I believe should, radically change, and greatly improve, the way Jews eat today.

"God did require us to be compassionate towards animals, take care of the planet and take care of our own health too."

Hmmm, that's an interesting religion you've created for yourself; Veganism, Environmentalism [Climate Change/Global Warming], and Healthcare [which I'll assume includes Vaccine Mandates, Abortion, and Trans-Surgery].

I always thought that the Liberal/Leftist agenda would become a religion one day. It certainly has all the earmarks of a cult.

I do find it interesting how they completely disregard the concepts of sin, contrition, redemption, grace, and absolute truths. You know; those inconvenient truths that God requires: Turning away from envy, greed, sexual immorality, immodesty, drunkenness, hedonism, and idolatry. And you can still be compassionate by helping those in need and less fortunate.

Go figure...
