Quoting @Tommy@:

Does anyone know?

Christians eat pork (disgusting). They worship 3 different Gods, they pray to idols.

Crusaders were killers.

They can have sex everywhere and with everyone.
....



But this pretty well describes most of my weekends (Minus the Crusades)

Not counting "man-made" elements, there are 94.

Quoting Elisabeth:

The belief that it is ok to eat pork actually came from Jesus himself. I think (but I am not sure because its been more than a few decades since bible school) that in the Gospel of St. John that Jesus said something to the effect....why would you abstain from pork and observe all your other religious laws (like ritual ablution) and still be full of sin? (I am paraphrasing)...anyway, it is a Christian belief that God does not judge you by the contents of your stomach, or the cleanliness of your hands/feet, ect....but by the contents of your soul.



Fish on Fridays (year round) was within both of our lifetimes Elizabeth. So that isn't entirely accurate.

So actually, this is one of my biggest theological issues as a Christian. God layed down these laws, but they were changed by man. I don't know where, but I think there are probably Christians that still practice this.

True many Christians may have been Pagans but actually, Christians at the time of Christ practiced Judism. Modern day Christians believe in both the Old Testament and the New Testament. Not sure what they teach about Christianity in China but your facts are not necessarily correct ZZ.

Quoting zhang ziyi:

Quoting KeithL:

I have often wondered when it was decided and by whom, why it became acceptable to eat pork and shellfish for Christians.



From what I know Christians were never forbidden pork or anything else.



Thats not true. Several references to this in the Old Testament and in the times of Jesus (Isa) the practice was still forbidden. So at some point, a man not necessarily of God, changed this long time practice for all Christians.

I am only pointing it out because of selective censorship. There should either be alot of censorship in our threads, or none at all...

Was the purpose of this thread to bring people together or pull people apart? Or was it just to create some "excitement"?

There are many Jews that live and work in the şişli area of istanbul. As far as I see, they get along just fine.
