But I think it wouldn't be wise to eat food offered to idols.
I think I wouldn't.
In India food is still offered to idols (i.e. to Krishna), but I think I wouldn't eat it.
Thank you for the verse in 1 Cor. (We're talking here about 1 Corinthians Chapter 8 here). I didn't know that and I've always thought that Christians actually aren't allowed to eat food offered to idols at all.
Anyway, so far I haven't thought much about it, as there are hardly no pagans (except Hinduism and maybe some tribal religions) that offer food to idols. - But Acts 15 came into my mind when I first heard about the Hare Krishna cult and read their books and became to know that they indeed offer meals to their idol Krishna.
