As a vegetarian Christian who struggles daily with whether or not it is all right from a faith perspective to even be a vegetarian.

I'd rather have the information with nothing breaking it up other than maybe different colored/sized headlines. I have to say, Southern Cross was very interesting. I wasn't sure what to expect when I started reading it and I certainly ... Read the Post...
