Problem solved.Meat is NOT hazardous to health. The issue of whether one or the other has more cholesterol could be brought up but that is not relevant if you maintain a balanced diet.
Really? Hmm, the USDA points out that pork should not be eaten because to often it is not cooked properly. Pork contains high amounts of tricona (sic) larvea, which leads to tricinosis (sic), often misdiagnosed some sort of joint ailment. Look it up on the net, do some research. As for other meats, I’ve quit eating beef just because man has turned them into cannibals which has lead to Mad-Cow disease. Other meats will follow as man has altered the genetic makeup of “raised” animals that their value as a nutritional source will be highly doubtful in the future as well, that is unless you want to start ingesting streroids of unknown quantities and types.
If you read my post you will see I wrote “properly cooked”. Obviously you ask for trouble if you don’t cook something properly!
If YOU read MY earlier posts you would see that I do eat meat, just not certain types. Also, my statement stated that most people DO NOT properly cook pork, which leads to the ailments I discribed. Just because I’m paranoid doesn’t make what I’ve stated false.
Problem: Meat is uncooked
) and bring more people to a knowledge of the Love of Christ.The distinction is clear. Peter, himself, interpreted his own vision, in his interpretation he never mentions anything about what should and should not be eating, only that the vision was pertaining to the new relationship to the Gentiles which God was showing him, nothing more, nothing less. However, we are all given the freewill to eat or do whatever we feel is necessary to our own well being, some prefer to abstain from certain activities while other prefer not to abstain, to each his own. I would remind everyone what Paul said, “Know you not that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit?” (Parapharsed) As such, we need to consider what we put into it, after all, we need to treat such an exalted guest with all due respect.Hi, Sabbath Keeper,
If I read your post correctly, I do not understand why you have made a distinction here: yes, the animals Peter saw in the sheet were forbidden under the Old Testament - and, Peter was literally instructed to eat under the New Testament. And, yes, Jews were to avoid associations with Gentiles and the sheet was a symbol of the embrace of Christianity.
From my reading of this, both elements are present. You can eat pork, shellfish and other such foods (properly cooked, of course
God bless
You do realize that the Japanese have the highest rates of stomach cancer and parasitic infestations in the world don’t you?The Japanese might have something to say about the paranoia here…
And that is, ‘Itadakimasu!’
Which basically means let’s eat! Sushi… raw fish… raw… everything.
I remind my mother about these things every time the next paranoid ‘health’ news article comes out trying to either convince someone to give up one food (for the sake of fanaticism), or eat another (that someone is selling).
Nothing like a raw egg in a milk shake.
Of course we should treat our bodies with respect and shouldn’t overindulge in any food. Sugary or fatty or salty or overly processed - all has every bit as much potential to harm our health as undercooked pork. So why is that a particular bee in your bonnet?
