One possible forged passage in the whole thing. Even so, Christ could have got consent from the fish’s soul, being god and all.

The fish swim in dark waters unperceived to us which is why he ate the fuckers.

It was several. He also went fishing with the Apostles. LOL you are ignorant.

Actually seemed like fish was his favorite food and fishing with his friends was a favorite activity.

Jesus was hanging with them, I’ve hung out with fisherman, doesn’t say he caught or killed fish. In fact the one fish he ate wasn’t his catch either. But he’s god, he can bring the fish souls to heaven or multiply fish without souls, are you god?

Fish don't have souls wtf? I assume you want to give rocks souls too? Have you even read chapter number One of Genesis? It says right there clearly that we are wards of all the other animals and plants.

I get the concerns about cattle farms and whatnot. But you can't try and culture jam people into believing the Bible was ever advocating veganism. That just makes you look dumb.

He didn't just eat one fish.

There are several points in the Gospels where he literally catches fish and eats them.

it’s actually common sense that it’s wrong to bludgeon little sentient beings to death for pleasure
