The founders of Buddhism, Hinduism, Christianity,
Judaism, Sikhism, Jainism, and the sects
of Methodism, the Salvation Army,
the Seventh Day Adventists,
the Franciscans and many other
monk orders were all vegetarian.
They are respectively Buddha, Rama,
Jesus, Abraham, Guru Nanak, Mahavira,
John Wesley, General Booth, Ellen White,
St. Francis etc.'
In most of these cases, a majority
of the followers are not following
the spiritual path of their founders.
