Dear All,
Just wondering people's opinions on this, since I have read elsewhere that RasTafari sometimes accept fish as the sea has a purifying effect, and specifically fish <12inches long.
I am talking about fish that has been caught wild in the ocean and not farmed fish,
All the best,
Joe

Some do
Some don't
Simple as.
But clearly freshwater ketch is better than frozen supermarket injected with embalming fluid so it doesn't rot, fish.
But a life is a life no matter what
But Christ was a fisherman and Hebrews or other Incients long been eating fish.
The health argument for eating and not eating fish are balanced.
Comes down to how man personally see the thing within his own meditation

It is true dat some Rastas nyam flesh but I & I Italist no nyam no fish nor any flesh. I man don't eat fish bcos fish has a right to live. I raspect de rights of animals thus I no eat no flesh. I main reason fo bein vegan is to worship, giv thanks & Ises to Almighty creator fo life. I vegetarian life is a way of showin appreciation to I creator fo life. I trod Ital livity for good health & higher connection to mama nature which make I closer in I relationship with I creator. One Black Love
