Do you feel that some food is poisonous?

[The Jason]

No doubt, some food is called junk for a reason. In fact, it leads to illness which then is treated using drugs - which I don't really trust.

1 Timothy 4:1-5 KJV
Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils; [2] Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron; [3] Forbidding to marry, and commanding to abstain from meats, which God hath created to be received with thanksgiving of them which believe and know the truth. [4] For every creature of God is good, and nothing to be refused, if it be received with thanksgiving: [5] For it is sanctified by the word of God and prayer.

 

[Lamb]

There are some foods that are loaded with chemicals our bodies don't need, or it harms us. There are so many preservatives in our foods and how can that keep us healthy?

It's not about an animal being forbidden to eat, but how it is prepared.

So 'how food is prepared' trumps God's Word?

Would you consider it ok to gobble down a nice poison ivy salad, then?

With a main entree of blowfish guts, preceded by a glass of tetrodotoxin as an elegant aperitif?

Some things you just don' t wanna stick in your mouth.
