This is exactly my point CM. Because of my interpretation of Gen 9:3, I have been accused of excercising a Sola Scriptura philosophy. The prob is that there is no Church interpretation of the passage that is at odds with mine and if there was I would submit.

My understanding of God's Law is that it tells us what NOT to do. This is why Urban and Innocent proclaimed AGAINST tobacco and some Popes have even proclaimed AGAINST make-up for women. It seems to be Jansenist philosophy that we have to wait for God to tell us something is all right b4 we can participate. What then can be the purpose of God giving us free will?
