Larimar,
No, the issue is that you came to this board condemning people for celebrating Christmas and Easter or reaching out to the community offering alternative events instead of celebrating Halloween, making accusations that doing these things somehow added to the law, which is not the case.
I then asked you straightforward and direct questions that are easy for me to answer, but appear impossible for you to answer.
Instead of instructing us on why we are wrong through reason and discussion, you offer a repetition of assertions. It is not I who seek to argue about the Law, it is you who made judgmental remarks towards believers.
When offered specific Scriptures that seem to refute your position and when asked to interpret them given a Jewish context, you continue to refuse and ask your same questions all over again.
When you are ready to have a honest and intellectual theological discussion about these matters, let me know, because such discussions aren't a one way street like you seem to think they are.
You should eat some pork, it is really good and Jesus says it is OK to eat.
Mark 7:14-20
14 Again Jesus called the crowd to him and said, “Listen to me, everyone, and understand this.
15 Nothing outside a man can make him ‘unclean’ by going into him. Rather, it is what comes out of a man that makes him ‘unclean.’”
17 After he had left the crowd and entered the house, his disciples asked him about this parable.
18 “Are you so dull?” he asked. “Don’t you see that nothing that enters a man from the outside can make him ‘unclean’?
19 For it doesn’t go into his heart but into his stomach, and then out of his body.” (In saying this, Jesus declared all foods “clean.”)
20 He went on: “What comes out of a man is what makes him ‘unclean.’
Shalom.
