Topaz - XD My fault. Sorry for derailing it there. You may resume talking about blood... and burgers... is now a bad time to mention that I don't eat red meat?

Feed the hungry, care for those who are less fortunate, praise and worship God as Creator. None of those are even expressly mentioned in the Law itself. Well okay, praising God is, but that's the only one I'll grant you. Paul even said one of the Ten Commandments itself ("Keep the Sabbath day holy") didn't even apply anymore.
I don't like that. We should live just as Christ lived. Christ didn't get married.

Also, could you please PM me that verse from Paul on the Sabbath? I'm very curious about that...
(Personally, I cringe at the thought of consuming blood or straight fat though! )
