Can’t you tell the difference between JESUS and an ANIMAL?

Acts 15 makes no distinction.  Blood is simply mentioned as one item in a list of items to be avoided.  There is no clue given whether this is animal blood or human.  If this were a statute and I had a client asking how to stay on the safe side of it, I would advise him/her to avoid consuming both.  

Peace,

SR

Absolute nonsense. Where were people getting all this human blood that, according to you, they were drinking and the Council was talking about?

The reference is to the blood of animals that had been sacrificed—as mentioned in the SENTENCE IMMEDIATELY BEFORE.
