But if I'm at work and it's happy hour time on a Friday and we go out after work and I know that one of my colleagues is a recovering and struggling alcoholic and we're going to dinner, I'm like, I'm not going to... No, I can't have a beer in front of that person. That's... I think it's immoral even. I would say that's immoral. So it's a community-based, a communal ethic.

Yeah, he articulates his contextual ethic, and then he pivots right from that to narrating the story of the Last Supper and seems to be saying, we have our own communion sacrifice. We have our own. We don't need to participate in these others that you have in Corinth. And then he retells the story of the Last Supper in that same spot.

And he says that if you're not discerning the body properly, you're eating and drinking judgment on yourself. So it's pretty intense. Not discerning the body properly. Right. And it's a nice ambiguous phrase, like discerning what the body is. And also I think it means discerning the body of Christ as in the community. Right. The people around. Exactly.

Because he uses the body of Christ in both ways in that letter to mean, to mean this, the Eucharist and to demean the community. Oh, that's very interesting.
