The meat I eat is Halal? I had pork chops for supper yesterday.
Until lately, when you read about not eating meat sacrificed to idols, you would say, “Glad we don’t have to worry about that anymore!”. WRONG, There baaack!
1 Corinthians 8King James Version (KJV)
8 Now as touching things offered unto idols, we know that we all have knowledge. Knowledge puffeth up, but charity edifieth.
2 And if any man think that he knoweth any thing, he knoweth nothing yet as he ought to know.
3 But if any man love God, the same is known of him.
4 As concerning therefore the eating of those things that are offered in sacrifice unto idols, we know that an idol is nothing in the world, and that there is none other God but one.
5 For though there be that are called gods, whether in heaven or in earth, (as there be gods many, and lords many,)
6 But to us there is but one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we in him; and one Lord Jesus Christ, by whom are all things, and we by him.
7 Howbeit there is not in every man that knowledge: for some with conscience of the idol unto this hour eat it as a thing offered unto an idol; and their conscience being weak is defiled.
8 But meat commendeth us not to God: for neither, if we eat, are we the better; neither, if we eat not, are we the worse.
9 But take heed lest by any means this liberty of yours become a stumblingblock to them that are weak.
10 For if any man see thee which hast knowledge sit at meat in the idol’s temple, shall not the conscience of him which is weak be emboldened to eat those things which are offered to idols;
11 And through thy knowledge shall the weak brother perish, for whom Christ died?
12 But when ye sin so against the brethren, and wound their weak conscience, ye sin against Christ.
13 Wherefore, if meat make my brother to offend, I will eat no flesh while the world standeth, lest I make my brother to offend.
We ask The Lord to bless our food to our bodies and strengthen us for His service in the name of His Son, Jesus.
Halal or road kill makes no difference to me.
No one reads alternate media, so no one knows a thing about this report, thus ... it doesn’t matter if it’s muzzie blessed or not.
1 Corinthians 8:8-13New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition (NRSVCE)
8 “Food will not bring us close to God.”[a] We are no worse off if we do not eat, and no better off if we do. 9 But take care that this liberty of yours does not somehow become a stumbling block to the weak. 10 For if others see you, who possess knowledge, eating in the temple of an idol, might they not, since their conscience is weak, be encouraged to the point of eating food sacrificed to idols? 11 So by your knowledge those weak believers for whom Christ died are destroyed.[b] 12 But when you thus sin against members of your family,[c] and wound their conscience when it is weak, you sin against Christ. 13 Therefore, if food is a cause of their falling,[d] I will never eat meat, so that I may not cause one of them[e] to fall.
Check the lamb you buy at Costco, it’s halal.
I pointed this out to a woman and she called me a liar. Stupid b!tch.
I don’t believe our Lord wants you to eat road kill. I know for certain He doesn’t want you to eat meat blessed by an imam to the glory of Mohammed and Allah.
The imams through their magical incantations convert pork chops to lamb.
And Catholics ..... never mind.
It’s not simply the Muslim prayers, it is the particularly cruel method of slaughter. But what else would you expect from Islam, the religion of cruelty?

“...meat blessed by an imam to the glory of Mohammed and Allah.”
Since Islam is a false religion, why should I care what nonsense some imam might gibber over meat? How about if some food is cursed by a Wiccan, would that make it harmful to eat?
I have more important things to worry about.
So is all of the prepackaged “grass fed” Angus beef. At Safeway. Interesting to note that it used to be labeled as halal. No longer. Same product, same origin.
But he would place his filthy Muslim fingers on it.
WHo can afford beef anymore?
But that is MY opinion ... Not how God views the offered meat.
Personally ... I have a serious problem with my own Christianity with humans I think shoulod be dead
Yes. I noticed a ‘Halal’ designation on a package of ‘already been cooked’ chicken sausages from Safeway. Very upsetting. Also, I have noticed pork disappearing from some menus. Specifically, pork egg rolls at Pei Wei have been replaced by chicken egg rolls. Not near as good either. We are being insidiously islamicized.
All sorts of people handle all of our food that we don’t grow or hunt for ourselves. That’s why I wash stuff. Muslim cooties are probably no worse than any other variety, on average.
Love beef. But pork is much cheaper.
