Every time you walk past a meat shop or come across a menu containing a lot of flesh, let that harden your resolve. No point throwing that menu on the waiter’s face. The waiter is a puny fellow. He didn’t even write the menu; he has nothing to do with it. Not even the manager. What can the manager do? Not even the owner. There are bigger forces at work.
Do you know what those bigger forces are? They are not a person. Those bigger forces are all of us—the darkness within the human mind. The darkness pervasive in mankind is the larger force that is making all those things possible. The only way to defeat that menu card is to remove the darkness in the mind of men.
