The Chinese, the Spaniards and Poles, Germans,
Russians, Italians, Vietnamese (most non-Islamic
countries actually, except Israel)...whew!!
Actually most of the world eats blood in one form
or another (sausage, pudding or on soups), if your
religion denounces this practice then let it be,
we all know that Moses forbids this. But how much
of the Mosaic law do we follow, do you follow all
of them?

Er... not just in the Philippines, my dear, that people are eating
"blood". Ever heard of "blutwurst" ? Hmmm... yummy! Eating it does
not make the Europeans 'non-christian' just because the bible says so.

Ouch..! you mean so hungry like cannibals? Schatzilein, it's not only
the Pinoys who love this "bloody" specialty. The Europeans also do.
They have their own style -- the "blutwurst" (yummy!)
And eating this doesn't make one 'barbaric' or 'un-christian' (bloedsinn!)
I'm sure even the Pope could have eaten this sausage at least once in
his entire life.

whoever started the eating of blood in the philippines had to have superior,
if not sophisticated, tastes. it's not a "hungry" thing, cherubim. we eat
blood because it tastes soooo good! and aw c'mon puhleeze... if we had to
eat stuff that's in the bible we'll all end up limiting ourselves to locusts
and honey, manna in the morning, unleavened bread and bitter vetch.
sounds like hell to me. so please leave your bible outside the kitchen.

They were not hungry. Instead, they know what it taste best. Please clarify,
if its fresh blood or cooked blood. Vampire bats love to eat fresh blood. I
like to eat dinuguan baboy with puto at merienda time. How about dinuguang
azucena,anyone?

In the Argentinian Parillada, blood sausage is a required component
(together with tenderloin tips, liver, kidney, ribs, etc.)

There is also a Cuban dish which uses pork blood as the base of its stew.
Just don't remember the name.

I can't believe you asked that question. That's like asking would it make a
difference between eating a chicken drumstick or a human leg.

And while we're at it, the Old Testament also forbade the eating of pigs.
Don't tell me you refrain from lechon?

Pig's blood. Humans are more apt to cancers and illnesses. Pigs are
supposed to be very clean animals and only roll around in the dirt to cool
off. In the Philippines the pigs (the country ones anyway that I've seen)
were fed grains and greens, making them very tasty lechon. As a Filipino
I would rather eat pigs blood (I used to anyway as a kid but I saw what
happened to the pig from the pen to the table...so now I'm traumatized).
But still I'm a Christian so no blood for thank you.

Let's just put it this way Cherubim...it's a question of culture and
religion.

What was shallow in the question?

My point, is human blood of lower quality in comparison with that of an
animal (pig or chicken) such that it is unfit to eat? Isn't "regla" human
blood?

Any true CHRISTIAN would not eat blood from any source, even if it were the
last food on earth!

Hello,
It is not what you eat that makes you holy. Christ came to fulfill the Law. A Christian has a strong foundation can eat anything except human flesh. If what he eats makes a new convert question the faith, he must abstain from eating the food in front of the new convert until the latter fully understands how a true Christian lives.

God bless,

hello cherubim_5! this is my take on this: it is not what comes in a man's
mouth that makes him unclean. it's what comes out. God's directives found in
the mosaic books are "to set a people apart from other nations". most were
symbolisms of prophecy, things yet to come at that time (e.g. sacrifice of a
lamb, sabbaths, passover etc.). what's really important to us of today, as
Christ has emphasized, is our love and devotion to God and other people. that
is what makes christians distinct "set apart"; that is what shows that His
Spirit is in us.

Maybe because our ancestors were eating diniguan hundreds of years before the
Bible ever got to the Philippines?

Besides, the Bible also bans the eating of pork and shellfish, but I know
precious few Pinoys who are willing to give up lechon and alimango. And if you
ask an Orthodox Jew about Biblical dietary restrictions, he'll tell you those
apply only to Jews, and not to gentiles.

In short, if eating dinuguan is a sin, I must be Satan himself....

Does this mean that Catholics are not TRUE christians because in the
communion, they eat and drink the blood of christ? I always thought that
the blood and body of christ was the food for the soul. considering that
there are lots of people who need food for the soul, christ should remain
a main course for everyone

Ah, communion....the blood of Christ?
At that ritual, is Christ Blood literal or symbolical?

Perhaps you CANNOT comprehend, I am referring to the actual eating of cooked
or uncooked blood as food for the "physical body". Of course spiritual food
is different from physical food.

Explain to me again why actual eating of blood is not worthy for a christian.
Do you know that the meat the most christians eat have blood vessels such as
veins and arteries which contain blood? Chicken legs, lamb, steaks, hamburger
and sausages all contain blood. Thy ignorance is certainly appaling. Have you

ever thought of joining a circus? It would be a nice place to see the most

Evidently, what Cherubim cannot comprehend is the Catholic doctrine of
Transsubstantiation. The whole substance of the wine is transformed into blood.
Only the species (appearance) of wine remains. So Catholics are drinking
literally the blood of Christ.

(And you can get a nice buzz off of it if you have enough)

And in any case, self-righteousness must surely be a worse sin than eating
diniguan.

>literally the blood of Christ.

I can not recall the exact verse but Jesus is definitely on record as saying
something like: That which you eat never enters your body, it goes into your
mouth and out the other end so it does not make you impure. That which comes
from inside, e.g. lustful, murderous etc thoughts is what makes one impure.
Of course I may add a bit and take away as much but the definite point is that
God does not care about what we eat but God does care about how we think and
act.

Catholic doctrine of Transsubstantiation is purely an invention.

REALLY, can you actually prove that the wine at catholic rituals turn to

A sin is a sin no matter what form, it will receive punishment.
Why do insist to justify the eating of blood (dinuguan), is the pig's blood
"Transsubstantiated" to Christ's blood also?

It is impossible to have a meaningful dialogue with you. Obviously, you have no
respect for anyone's religious belief but your own. You demand proof of a
Catholic doctrine, yet you offer absolutely no proof that your interpretation
of Christianity is valid, nor any proof that the Catholic interpretation is
invalid.

You have no respect for any opinion but your own. You attack a facet of
Filipino culture (the eating of dinuguan) for no purpose than merely to prove
to yourself that you are somehow better, more moral, more worthy of salvation
than all others. In short, you are basically on a self-righteous ego trip.

From the responses to your original post, I doubt you have converted a single
person on this news group to your belief. Rather, you have offended and
alienated many others by choosing to condemn a Filipino custom as an act of
demonic evil. A poor strategy of evangelism on a Filipino cultural newsgroup.

But then again, I doubt your true motive was not to persuade any of us to your
beliefs. Rather, it is clear your true motive was to crow your superiority over
an entire culture. Clearly, this speaks less of your religious convictions than
it does about your low self-esteem.

If you refuse to have any respect for my Catholic beliefs, then there really is
not point in continuing the debate, is there?

Hello Gallermo,
I have a question for you, have you drank the wine during communion? If
not, why is it
only the priest who drinks the wine?
The Lord's Supper is for everybody who is a member of Christ's church,
and each one
is to partake of both the bread and the wine to remember His death and
promise.

if A is equals to B and B is equal to C... then C must therefore become D???
good logic right there, cherubim!

Yes, I've drunk the communion wine. As wine goes, it's not Moet et Chandon, but
that's not the purpose of it. Your take on the Eucharist sounds like the
Doctrine of Consubstantiation, perhaps (Luther's interpretation), or perhaps
the Calvinist view, or the Anglican view.

In any case, as a Catholic, I subscribe to the view of Transsubstantiation. If
you or Cherubim 5 have different views, you are entitled to them, and I am by
no means trying to convert you, or demean your theology. I only hope I can
receive the same respect on this matter.

Halong,

ManongDave
