Compromise? yay or nay

I think we should confine the subject to the context being written of, ie...meats.

We all know your points are unclean, as are lying and theft, and a hundred related things, but the scripture here concerns meat.
Kinda like some won't drink because they think it is wrong while others have no problem with it.
Some won't have blood transfusions while others have no problem with it.

That was my point. The original poster (Curtis) put this in the generic context about compromise. (all sin?)
 
Hmmm... how far do you want to take this?
Being a homosexual isn't unclean? Being a child molester isn't unclean? Being a murderer isn't unclean?
I guess these things are only unclean, if I think they are unclean.

It is not just talking about eating or drinking, but any thing that offends a brother.

Rom 14:21 It is good neither to eat flesh, nor to drink wine, nor any thing whereby thy brother stumbleth, or is offended, or is made weak.
 
do you consider it a sin to drink 6 beers? or more specifically is there a point when drinking becomes a sin do you think?

A man can do anything in "excess" that could be called a sin.

Eph 5:18 And be not drunk with wine, wherein is excess; but be filled with the Spirit;

Even going to Church, and leaving your family in need would be a sin.

1Ti 5:8 But if anyone does not provide for his relatives, and especially for members of his household, he has denied the faith and is worse than an unbeliever.
