Fair enough, but if you want to be in mutual understanding or completely fair then it might be better to add the original context to my assertion-
"Then it is clear you don't know what you mean or what you support
when you say turning people gay in the name of population control sounds like a great idea."
And we can also say that, relative to the wisdom relayed to us by Yogananda with regards to an initiates or devotees spiritual path that Dr. Mark Hymans advice on nutrition is not compatible.
In fact I believe lard is quite nutritious and does well as a cooking agent whose contents can withstand temperatures that turn some seed oils toxic.
Even Gurunath, a supposed Kriya Master, told the meat eaters in his satsang that they should not abstain from meat. He simply said to eat it sparingly and to include plenty of greens.
What is more important are the mindful practices we cultivate, whatever the path we choose. With regards to nutrition, I mean to say that choosing grass-fed and pasture raised meat, supporting local small farms and organic practices have a far better impact than eating mass slaughtered, highly processed animal products where animals are treated poorly and fed an obscene diet. I say this as my opinion, and hope to apply this practice not just with what I eat but how I approach others who think differently than me.
I don't think I'm barred from Gods grace or spiritual progress by choosing a diet or lifestyle that works for me.
Separately- you asked why I quoted something you posted from 2022.
The intent, with quoting your words, was to prove your point. That many concessions take place in getting along with people. I agree. It was a pleasant surprise to see you had at one point felt something similar here:
