As Jesus said, it’s not what goes into a man’s mouth that defiles him, but what comes out of it. Meaning vile speech, rudeness, blasphemy, etc.
But I don’t want to eat it because God doesn’t want that for me, so though it wouldn’t defile my body, it is not for me. And it’s not absurd to know these types of things.
Exactly. I had the same reaction when I heard this before.
I think this was reported by WND before actually. It's good to be aware of the attempts at Islamication of America, but there's a difference between being aware and getting hyperventilated over every little thing. WND is getting to be like that crazy uncle everyone has but pays little attention.
To me this is like how many businesses are advertising in Spanish. It's an annoying indication of how so many refuse to assimilate, but it's not the business' fault for trying to please as many customers as possible. And this isn't even an indication of a lack of assimilation; it's just an indication Muslims follow dietary laws, something hardly threatening really. (until and unless they start trying to force them on everyone)
This isn't about defiling ourselves because of the type of meat we eat, it's a method of worshipping other Gods, well known to cults. You miss the point entirely.
Exodus 20:3
Thou shalt have no other gods before me.
2.Revelation 2:14
But I have a few things against thee, because thou hast there them that hold the doctrine of Balaam, who taught Balac to cast a stumblingblock before the children of Israel, to eat things sacrificed unto idols, and to commit fornication.
Revelation 2:20
Notwithstanding I have a few things against thee, because thou sufferest that woman Jezebel, which calleth herself a prophetess, to teach and to seduce my servants to commit fornication, and to eat things sacrificed unto idols.

exactly. Jesus doesn’t care what people eat and nor do I. Jesus esp. doesn’t care how such food is prepared nor do I.
and anyone still sacrificing animals is an idiot. God doesn’t need us to kill animals for Him. Stupid,stupid,stupid. Halal, kosher, no-pork,no-shellfish...it’s all asinine. God put those animals on earth for me to eat!!!
