KUSA: The Law of God is 100% moral.

A8: Do you follow the Old Testament dietary laws? (No pork, shrimp, clams, oysters, lobster, etc.) (Leviticus 11)

KSUA: It is very interesting that both Protestnts and Catholics immediately jump to the dietary laws when they discover a Christian follows God's Holy Law. Nobody ever says that adultery, theft, murder, honoring parents, or coveting are no longer sins.

Notice that you didn't answer the question. You claimed that the law of God is "100% moral", and then you evaded the question when asked whether you consider the OT dietary law to be normative today. If you don't believe we should keep the OT dietary laws, then there is a contradiction in your theology between your notion that we don't need to keep the OT dietary laws, and your claims that "the Law of God is 100% moral" and "There is only one Law of God" (#1323).

I didn't answer the question because I don't need to go down this road. We just did this for over 2 weeks on two previous threads. For the record, I do not eat unclean foods as a rule, but respect people who do.

I was reading over your post 1463 and can empathize with your walk. I was Catholic from birth to about 24. The way I see it, there are only two ways to go. Either you believe in the Catholic Church and Apostolic Succession or you join a Sabbatarian Church. Have you ever heard a Protestant Minister try to condemn homosexuality while simultaneously saying he is not under the law? It is dizzying.
