Absolutely WRONG!
So wrong I couldn't even read past that....
Peter had to VIOLATE the law in order to walk in the spirit.

Peter violated NON SCRIPTURAL MAN MADE LAWS. I don't know why you can't understand the difference.

Paul said nothing about Peter keeping man made laws. Peter was eating pork chops and shrimp cocktails in Antioch and then withdrew from the gentiles when the brethren from Jerusalem arrived on the scene. Paul called Peter out for being a hypocrite. Not for the food he was eating.

“I said to Peter before them all, ‘If you, being a Jew, live in the manner of Gentiles and not as the Jews, why do you compel Gentiles to live as Jews? 15 We who are Jews by nature, and not sinners of the Gentiles.’” (Gal. 2:14,15)

Peter was living like a gentile. No problem -- until he turned into a hypocrite.
