Of course then how do you explain the text that says something like
Nothing is forbidden to me, but some things aren't good for me. It
certainly sounds like you can do, eat, drink what you want - it might not
be healthy but it isn't forbidden.

From my POV, it's just another example of Biblical doubletalk of course -
you can almost w/o exception find "loopholes" for about anything.


If you want to see "loopholes", then that is what you will see.

What some others see is a balanced and global perspective.

Where men go wrong is when they give exxagerated weight to certain verses
and then create a false gospel around them.

When you read the Bible in a global manner, it prevents this from happening.

But again, if one looks for "loopholes", then that is exactly what they will
find.
