“So, you reject that God was speaking about flying creatures that were “clean” or “unclean” as far as eating?”
I haven’t given it much thought to be truthful. I suspect that if I did give it much thought, I’d probably decide that it wasn’t God talking but rather a group of priests, and that is not to say that they might not have had good reason for declaring some foods “unclean”. That, however, has never stopped me from eating lobster or other shellfish or the very occasional Ostrich steak. I also drink milk when eating meat; in fact, I love to eat clam chowder which is about as un-kosher as you can get, short of perhaps boiling the pork chops in milk prior to frying them.
Do you keep kosher or do you live dangerously? :)
No, I am not a kosher Jew. I love lobster, crab, shrimp, etc., but I stop short at buzzards too “gamey” I’m told. ;o)
I am “brining” a turkey. That means a two-day soak in salt/sugar/seasoning water and then a good rinse, pat-dry and traditional roasting. It supposedly keeps the meat very juicy and yummy. I’ll let you know how it turns out if you’re interested.
