    Every moving thing that liveth shall be meat for you; even as the green herb have I given you all things. ? Wait. I thought we could only eat the clean animals?

    I've also thought of this before and was lead to these other things in the Bible:

    Romans 14:1-6

    1 Him that is weak in the faith receive ye, but not to doubtful disputations.

    2 For one believeth that he may eat all things: another, who is weak, eateth herbs.

    3 Let not him that eateth despise him that eateth not; and let not him which eateth not judge him that eateth: for God hath received him.

    4 Who art thou that judgest another man's servant? to his own master he standeth or falleth. Yea, he shall be holden up: for God is able to make him stand.

    5 One man esteemeth one day above another: another esteemeth every day alike. Let every man be fully persuaded in his own mind.

    6 He that regardeth the day, regardeth it unto the Lord; and he that regardeth not the day, to the Lord he doth not regard it. He that eateth, eateth to the Lord, for he giveth God thanks; and he that eateth not, to the Lord he eateth not, and giveth God thanks.

    Also verse 14:

    14 I know, and am persuaded by the Lord Jesus, that there is nothing unclean of itself: but to him that esteemeth any thing to be unclean, to him it is unclean.

    Mark 7:18-20

    18 And he(Jesus) saith unto them, Are ye so without understanding also? Do ye not perceive, that whatsoever thing from without entereth into the man, it cannot defile him;

    19 Because it entereth not into his heart, but into the belly, and goeth out into the draught, purging all meats?

    20 And he said, That which cometh out of the man, that defileth the man.

    Along with the post, verse, you wrote which was God speaking to Noah. It is just my belief that the whole thing about "unclean" animals was just something made up by the pharisees. Of coarse I cannot proove this but I don't think any food or meat is really unclean. As we have these other verses backing this up. Today it seems we have all this GMO stuff which I don't like. I try to stay away from it but I don't feel guilty if I eat something with it. Hope this helps. God Bless.

    In Old Testament days there was no real cooling for meat. The danger was food poisoning; mold etc.

    I saw an entire 4 story office get ptomaine (sp) food poisoning because they left the chili sitting out all night. I had a sink in my dark room.... it was brutal. My boss used it.

    Not me. I skipped lunch that day.

    Always ask Jesus to bless and sanctify the food clean, to be consumed.

    In the rooms past history pages(1-100) at the bottom, there's a google story about the sanctions President Trump put on Chinese exported meats and foods; is because they test positive for swine flu. Everybody get a flu shot this year. Pray over that bacon!
