So I caved and read the rest. WTF is this supposed to even mean?

Rayford Steele had to admit that the first time he saw a bear and then a leopard moving about in public, something niggled at him to keep his distance, to not show fear, to make no sudden movements. But when he saw the bear and the cat cooperate to climb a tree and make a meal of leaves and branches, he was emboldened to trust God for the whole promise. It wasn't just he who had become a vegetarian. It was true of all former carnivores.

And then they eat "steaming piles of fresh produce" for dinner. I can't believe anyone takes this stuff seriously; it's all either ridiculous or offensive or both. On the other hand, I'm totally going to use this bit next time someone tells me I shouldn't be a vegetarian because "God gave us the animals for food."
