James Bean returned to the Virtual Alexandria to discuss ancient vegetarianism: Gnostics, Christians, Jews & even Pagans. This included the Essenes, Pythagoreans, Therapeutae, Ebionites, and more. Was Jesus a vegetarian? Was Paul or John the Baptist against vegetarians? We also covered medieval Gnostics like the Manichaeans & Cathars.
