Remember to have read formerly in one of Gaffendus's On Man's Epiftles, a Suggeftion of his (which he feems to espouse feeding on as his own Opinion) as if he thought it not (originally) Flesh, and of natural for Man to feed on Flefh; though by long Ufage Carnivorous Animals, by (at least ever fince the Flood) we have been accustomed Dr J. Wallis, to it, and it is now familiar to us; but rather on Plants, Roots, Fruits, No. 269. Grain, &c. And I take it to be the Opinion of many Divines, that before the Flood, Men did not ufe to feed on Flefh, becaufe of what we have in Gen. ix. 3. where God fays to Noah, (after the Flood) Every moving thing VOL. V. B p. 769. |
