“Acts and Corinthians makes clear such pagan-sacrificed meat should be avoided.
Only for conscience sake”
A very pharsitical answer.
The text says “You must abstain from eating food offered to idols, from consuming blood or the meat of strangled animals, and from sexual immorality. “
“Must”
Not “it’s a good idea”
“Must”
Is “sexual immorality” also OK? You know, since no one gets hurt? It’s the same list.
It amazes me the ability people have to justify actions that are clearly stated as “don’t do it.”
You're ignoring the writings of Paul.
Besides, ain't much idol sacrificing going on around these parts.
Thank you for being an excellent defender against such nonsense.
To purchase halal food is to fund the Muslim Brotherhood and CIAR. The Bible, in its infinite wisdom, recognized this. Apparently, so-called “conservatives” don’t mind completely ignoring passages of Scripture or providing terrorists with resources as long as they get their delicious meat. I have no idea why people react with such hostility towards requiring all food to be marked as halil; if we’re going to keep the FDA around, they might as well do something useful.
