Fish was fine though, so meat merely constitutes a subcategory of animals instead of meaning all animals. The common vegetarian around here follows the same logic and it doesn't matter whether these people are religious or not. It's so ingrained in people's minds that fish and meat are different things that there's no use in fighting against this definition. Personally, I find it weird, but I am fine with it being like that. It's not important enough. |
So to Catholics, it really is not considered the same. That's interesting. Yeah the reason I brought up Catholics in the OP was because I've noticed the majority who say it isn't meat tend to be Catholics.
