<sarcasm>I don't understand why the big outcry a few years back about kids eating TidePods. I mean, Jesus made everything clean, right? And TidePods would really help in that cleaning process. </sarcasm>

Anyway, we can see in the Bible what food is listed in Leviticus 11. Not "clean and unclean food" as some translations put in the header. It lists what is and isn't food. Leviticus 11:47 NIV "You must distinguish between the unclean and the clean, between living creatures that may be eaten and those that may not be eaten." When what is food is repeated in Deuteronomy 14, it starts off in verse 3 with: "You shall not eat any abomination" - What's an abomination to eat? .... The things that aren't considered food.

As I point out in the comic, this idea of some things are food and some things aren't is one we already have. Except somewhere in the last 2,000 years we have associated all animals with food. If we take the Bible at what it says, this is not true. Just like we know not all liquids are drinkable, not all animals are for consumption.
