Not what Paul was talking about - he was talking about not sharing communion with the poor, and getting drunk on the wine.

That sounds like it came from the Episcopal Bible. Did they stick that in when they got rid of the parts about sodomy?

Go and learn what this means - God desires mercy, not sacrifice. Which version of 1Cor11 do you want to believe in?

NIV:

17In the following directives I have no praise for you, for your meetings do more harm than good. 18In the first place, I hear that when you come together as a church, there are divisions among you, and to some extent I believe it. 19No doubt there have to be differences among you to show which of you have God’s approval. 20When you come together, it is not the Lord’s Supper you eat, 21for as you eat, each of you goes ahead without waiting for anybody else. One remains hungry, another gets drunk. 22Don’t you have homes to eat and drink in? Or do you despise the church of God and humiliate those who have nothing? What shall I say to you? Shall I praise you for this? Certainly not!

NAS:

17But in giving this instruction, I do not praise you, because you come together not for the better but for the worse.

18For, in the first place, when you come together as a church, I hear that divisions exist among you; and in part I believe it.

19For there must also be factions among you, so that those who are approved may become evident among you.

20Therefore when you meet together, it is not to eat the Lord’s Supper,

21for in your eating each one takes his own supper first; and one is hungry and another is drunk.

22What! Do you not have houses in which to eat and drink? Or do you despise the church of God and shame those who have nothing? What shall I say to you? Shall I praise you? In this I will not praise you.

KJV:

17Now in this that I declare unto you I praise you not, that ye come together not for the better, but for the worse.

18For first of all, when ye come together in the church, I hear that there be divisions among you; and I partly believe it.

19For there must be also heresies among you, that they which are approved may be made manifest among you.

20When ye come together therefore into one place, this is not to eat the Lord’s supper.

21For in eating every one taketh before other his own supper: and one is hungry, and another is drunken.

22What? have ye not houses to eat and to drink in? or despise ye the church of God, and shame them that have not? what shall I say to you? shall I praise you in this? I praise you not

YLT:

17And this declaring, I give no praise, because not for the better, but for the worse ye come together;

18for first, indeed, ye coming together in an assembly, I hear of divisions being among you, and partly I believe [it],

19for it behoveth sects also to be among you, that those approved may become manifest among you;

20ye, then, coming together at the same place — it is not to eat the Lord’s supper;

21for each his own supper doth take before in the eating, and one is hungry, and another is drunk;

22why, have ye not houses to eat and to drink in? or the assembly of God do ye despise, and shame those not having? what may I say to you? shall I praise you in this? I do not praise!

I forgot this version, not sure if you recognize it:

11:17. Hoc autem praecipio non laudans quod non in melius sed in deterius convenitis

11:18. Primum quidem convenientibus vobis in ecclesia audio scissuras esse et ex parte credo

11:19. Nam oportet et hereses esse ut et qui probati sunt manifesti fiant in vobis

11:20. Convenientibus ergo vobis in unum iam non est dominicam cenam manducare

11:21.Unusquisque enim suam cenam praesumit ad manducandum et alius quidem esurit alius autem ebrius est

11:22. Numquid domos non habetis ad manducandum et bibendum aut ecclesiam Dei contemnitis et confunditis eos qui non habent quid dicam vobis laudo vos in hoc non laudo
