Please note that this is the Wiccan DIR. If you are not familiar with Wicca or similar faiths the following will probably seem silly to you. It is not a joke. I take my worship very seriously. I do welcome replies from all (even non-Wicca) as long as the reply is constructive.
So far I have only given a food offering during ritual once. I was thinking up a new (and important) ritual today though. A food offering seems perfect for it. More specifically, a good sized piece of meat will be offered. I came up with the darnedest question about making such an offering though.
Should one offer the meat in a whole chunk, such as you would serve it to a guest or should one cut it into pieces like you would for a small child?
I do my rituals outside and I leave my offerings after the ritual is complete. I got to thinking about how either metod could have its downfalls. Would a God or Goddess be expected to pick up a large hunk of meat and eat it like a savage or animal? Would the same God or Goddess appreciate or be insulted at one cutting it up for easy consumption? Yes, this is kind of more detail than most have probably ever thought into such a thing. Many of you know how serious I take my rituals though. Everything just has to feel perfect. Oh heck, I am going to put this to a poll, but PLEASE explain your answer in a post.
