It is NOT a sin to eat flesh, only in the Old Testament, and that was just

I am Jewish and this is not accurate. The Torah (also known as 5 Books of
Moses) which Christians refer to as the Old Testament does not say it's a sin
for Jews to eat flesh. It only says it's a sin for Jews to eat certain kinds
of meat - the Kosher rules -- ie pork, shellfish and animals not killed in a
humane way. I'm simplifying this greatly but the point is, it does not say that
Jews should be vegetarians. Thank G-d.
