Dare to be aware

According to the bible (Genesis), GOD never ever said man should be allowed to use or abuse animals. What He actually said was, "Be fruitful and increase in number; fill the earth and subdue it. Rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air and over every living creature that moves on the ground." (Genesis 1,28)
What does it mean to rule? Doesn't “ruling” mean to take care of something, just like a king takes care of his people? A true king would never abuse or torture his own people.
More (Genesis 2,15):
“And Jehovah God taketh the man, and causeth him to rest in the garden of Eden, to serve it, and to keep it.”
We have been told to serve and to keep the garden of Eden yet look what we are doing. We aren’t serving or keeping. Instead we are polluting the garden and killing the animals for purposes of our own greed and fear.
(Greed: luxury goods from leather, using animals as fertilizer, eating meat for culinary reasons.
Fear: almost every man on this earth is afraid of natural death and illness. We all have to die one day and yet we behave as if we could avoid it.)
(Genesis 2,19):
“Now the LORD God had formed out of the ground all the beasts of the field and all the birds of the air. He brought them to the man to see what he would name them; and whatever the man called each living creature, that was its name.”
We are the caretakers of animals, we can "use" their body power as a divine support (riding, plowing...), but we are NOT allowed to kill them for private purposes.
Medicine is a private purpose, it is used to prolong life; but we never can avoid death.
The Bible and Quran are written by men, like all other books. This is where all the misery starts. People believe in words and not in GOD and that is the true reason for war and hatred.
Believing means: not knowing (the truth); the one who truly knows, doesn't need to believe. Believing in GOD means actually not knowing GOD and not wanting to know GOD. The one who believes just the words of GOD is lazy and in fact dismissing GOD. GOD is everywhere and if one really wants to, it is possible to meet GOD, to be in union with GOD. Then you KNOW."
Let’s get this straight, shall we?
