"Guitarpicker56" comes closest to the correct intepretation of that pericope. This is another variation of one of J's favorite topics ... the focus of religious fundamentalists on following the LETTER of the Law and condemning people for not doing so i.e. dietary laws in this case, but not the Spirit of the law.

Other than specific addictive or harmful substances, the Lord isn't overly concerned about what food or drink is consumed as He is about what damage the tongue can do to others.

Your speech testifies to your heart. If your heart is bitter or full of hatred etc it will come out in your speech. so will lies and so on.
