Comments on The Forgotten Beginnings of Creation and
Christianity
"This book is important reading for those who seek to understand why our
Bible today seems to make no definite, plain, unequivocal statement of the
unsuitability of animal foods for human beings. . . . Skriver’s book strikes
at the root of our ignorance — the fact that men and women were created to be
completely vegetarian . . . I have been searching all my adult life for many of
the insights shared by Dr. Skriver in this book."
— Roshan Dinshah in The Friendly Vegetarian
"It is an impressive argument . . . this is a very welcome translation
of a most valuable reference book for those engaged in the huge task of ‘de-anthropocentricizing’
Christianity."
— Dr. R. A. Hamilton, The Vegan
"If Skriver’s scriptural interpretations sound novel to contemporary
Christians, they would not have seemed so to some Christians of the first four
centuries. . . . He writes with passion and conviction about humankind’s
addiction to cruelty, violence, and death."
— Judith Miner, Vegetarian Journal
"This book adds much to the growing body of literature relating to
Christianity and vegetarianism. . . . He at times comes across like all four
horsemen of the apocalypse, dismounted and embodied in one clergyman. His essay
does not neglect the subjects of reincarnation, alcohol, tobacco, organized
medicine, vivisection, and the immortality of animal souls."
