Does the biblemake any mention of them learning how to properly clean/prepare/cook the food in question?


No it doesn't. But use logic, it makes since. Nomads might not have the fascilities or the knowledge to cook the food correctly. Once they did, it was ok or them to eat.

You know if you think about it, the meat did become clean because the bacteria was gone *laughs at bad joke*

Jesus can't be a woman! It's blasphemey as women are weaker in all forms, even faith! That's why you need to lock them up in the house to prevent them from becoming witches. 3nodding

You made a comment about animals suddenly being clean and about how ridiculous it is. God allowed them to eat certain animals, because people learned to cook and kill the bacteria in the animals. Now, please give me your reply to that. I want your thoughts. Think you can do it?


Ok, I've an idea here. Cite the exact verse where god allowed people to start eating certain animals. Then, find out what time period that verse was written. My guess is, it will be waaaaaaaaaaay back in history. And y'know what? Actually cooking your food to kill bacteria is a relatively new thing. I'm pretty sure they didn't even know what bacterii were back then.

It makes more sense to say that god suddenly declared the foods 'clean' than it does to say that ancient people learned how to properly cook food to kill off bacterii and germs, to ward off disease/food poisoning.
I've got an idea too! Leave this to me and Loki. God had reasons. His existeance is not the same as yours. They could cook it, they probably just didn't know about becteria. The bible doesn't tell EVERYTHING God did. A new thing? LOL! Sure it is. I don't have a bible with me, but it was a verse saying something a long the lines of...

'You can not eat animals with hooves.' It's in there.

Pretty sure they had fire back then.

Teh Bible (NASB)
Exodus 12:8 'They shall eat the flesh (A)that same night, (B)roasted with fire, and they shall eat it with (C)unleavened bread (D)and bitter herbs.


Things like refrigeration and proper curing, not so much. Depending on the diet of such animals and the environment, there may have been other considerations as well, if we do presume that such rules were based entirely on health. Eating lots of fish from San Francisco Bay would be a bad idea today. In another thousand years it might not be.
That's why they could only eat certain animals! gonk

You're failing at not being a moron and hypocrite.

I already said I agree with that. When I said, "Look! They're clean!" I was referring to the fact that the animals were considered unclean in Leviticus, and then in Acts, God said, "Call nothing I create unclean." This is most likely due to the fact that they could prepare things properly at that point.

You still haven't shown me where I've altered the Word of God.
No you said. "Oh, so suddenly they are clean now..." Now you are changing your words. I never said you completely altered his words. Some of the words are not exact. Thus, they could be misiunterperted. And again! I do not have my bible with me.

....That only proves her point, you know that?

At any rate, "God" is not the one who wrote the Bible. Man is. The gospels are the only thing I take as even CLOSE to historically accurate, and even that's probably been ******** up with the telling and retelling orally of Jesus's story.

The Bible as a historical and literary piece? Sure. I can buy that.

But I'm not taking its word as God's Word.

Of course, I defected from Christianity about four-five years ago and became humanist. So I guess it's a bad thing to take the word of a heathen former Catholic who has actually had experience with this.
i am kinda a christian i am not gonna get in to that there are somethings i agree with and other i strongly disagree with. ONE THING I HIGHLY DISAGREE WITH IS THAT HOMOSEXUALITY IS WRONG! GOD MADE BOTH MALE AND FEMALE IF IT'S LOVE WHO GIVES A s**t??? THESE ARE ONLY SOME OF MY VIEW POINTS PM ME IF U WANNA CHAT!
P.S.- ME GOTH DON'T WORSHIP SATAN DON'T QUITE BELIVE IN GOD.

Lawl. None taken.

And really, take a look at it sometime. The whole thing's just one epic poem. It has invocations, epic catalogues, ect.

I took a course on British Lit and we studied epics (We read "Paradise Lost" and "The Faerie Queene) and epic traits. One thing about the Bible is that it starts "in medius res"--or "in the middle." Meaning that the war in heaven has been fought, Satan's already been banished to hell, and God's already created the world and man--that's the entire book of Genesis right there. Of course, Genesis is also really rich in epic allegory, too.

Then there is the "goal"--something that needs to be accomplished. Almost every single book of the Bible has this to some degree, whether it's to prove something, spread the word, save humanity or find some homeland.

It's been a while since I've read the Bible, but Proverbs, Psalms and the Song of Songs are all either one LOOOOONG invocation to God or there's something at the beginning calling on God to inspire them. The same can be said of Paul's letters, the Acts, and perhaps Revelation.

Now, on the subject of "epic catalogues," we have those CRAAAZY long lists of people's geneaology, journeys, ect. I'll use, for an example, the listed geneaology of Jesus in one of the books of the Bible.

An argument, which the Bible most CERTAINLY has. Jesus's defiance and debates with the Pharisees. Paul's letters arguing against the corruption of the Corinthians.

Almost all of the above are present in the OT and some to some degree can be found in the NT. So yes, I do accept the Bible as a historical and literary piece.

As the Word of God...? Nah.

...that's because God said, on the fly, all of the sudden, to Peter's suprise, "Hey! Buddy! The animals are a-okay to eat! They're clean! Call 'em dirty and I'll smite you!"

I'm not changing my message. Who cares if I change my words slightly and the same meaning gets across? And, yeah. Some of the words aren't exact. A translation is never going to be exact, including your JW Bible, which is even less exact than most. That doesn't mean things are misinterpreted. That means they're interpreted as best as they can be.
