Yeah there was.... there was another Rabbi, who described eating... he had four scenarios of eating a steak.

The first is you just ate, but the steak smells good. So you take a page from the Romans, make yourself vomit, and then eat the steak.

Second is you're hungry. You enjoy the steak.

The third and the fourth ... I can't remember the difference. But you're at your child's wedding and steak is on the menu.

Nothing was really wrong with the second.

The first one lowers you to a level BENEATH animals.

The third one elevates the meal to something higher.

That first possibility, vomiting to make space for more food -- it's an interesting concept that man can slip beneath animals.

I was horrified the first time I heard of the crime of being kind to a poor person, getting them to sign some paper for your charity.... and then murdering them a week later. Because you had them sign a life insurance policy, with you as the beneficiary.

I found that horrific because no animal would do that. Would an animal kill for food or fear or anger or do rape because... just because? Yeah, sure. But no animal ever made another animal sign a life insurance policy before killing them. That's a crime that requires the human gifts, the human intellect, to even conceive of.

When I heard someone describe that, my next sentence was literally: "That's why G-d flooded the world".
