Our texts say that your body is the temple of God, and taking care of your body, whatever you eat or drink, is for the glory of God.

I don't eat any flesh of an animal. And I was raised that way. I've never had the meat of any animal.

God gave me a great body and it's my duty to take care of my physical temple.

You only get one body; it is the temple of your soul. Even God is willing to dwell there. If you truly treat your body like a temple, it will serve you well for decades. If you abuse it you must be prepared for poor health and a lack of energy.

It was just the most gross feeling ever. It was like I had bitten my own finger.

After our first parents had sinned, if God had changed His mind about the goodness of the human body, which embodied His own image, He would not have chosen it to be the temple for His Holy Spirit.
