I for one am pretty interested in what the guy experienced because,
crazy as it sounds -- and to me it does sound crazy -- it also sounds
kind of true. I know that's contradictory but any vision (and I'm
assuming that's what he had) would be considered basically nuts.

I don't recall you were here for the threads the past few weeks on
whether Jesus was the only one to "ascend" into heaven... vs. being
"taken up" or "translated" like Elijah and Enoch, respectively.

I would think that Able and his kin ate and enjoyed mutton as much as
Noah and his family did. But sheep not only are used for foods* but
for wool, worship Gen. 4:4) and other things. And we know from reading
scripture that (after eating the fruit of the tree of knowledge of good
and evil) Adam and Eve did not like to go naked. They were somewhat
prudish about remaining nudist after "the eyes of both were
opened"(Gen. 3:7-8). Also, of course, it may have got a bit cold in
the winter time. And wool can protect one's modesty and also protect
one from the cold.
Secondly in Genesis 1:30 God gives man all the beast, so it was man's
responsibility to keep the sheep" (Gen. 4:2), as sheep probably would
not last long on their on out in the wilds.
