Who shall I eat with?

~Galatians 2.11-13 When Peter came to Antioch, I had to oppose him to his face, for what he did was very wrong. When he first arrived, he ate with the Gentile Christians, who were not circumcised. But afterward, when some friends of James came, Peter wouldn’t eat with the Gentiles anymore. He was afraid of criticism . . . . As a result, other Jewish Christians followed Peter’s hypocrisy . . . .

How quickly Peter seems to forget his lesson that it's God's opinion, not man's, that matters.
