I see in post 637 you changed what you originally said from "want" to "thought about". But OK I understand you mean it as a joke anyway. I am not trying to nitpick.

As far as chewing the cud, yes the Bible puts the camel and hare in the same category - animals unfit for eating (under Kosher laws).

God gave the Jews some general rules for how to tell if an animal was Kosher or not. The verse you mentioned is one of many guideline (or rules, if you prefer).

If chewing the cud can refer to regurgitating food and chewing it again (like a cow) or passing it out like other waste and eating it again (like the hare), I am unsure what problem you have with this issue.

Fortunately, gentiles are not required to keep these dietary rules to be saved. Personally, I tend to avoid non-kosher foods as a preference.

Do you have a point with this or are we playing trivial pursuit?

The Bible was written by men who made the mistakes men make when they observe phenomena. The Bible is not God; it is not infallible -- and any objective perusal of the text shows this to be the case. Scripture might have been inspired by the Almighty, but the writers have done a poor job in transcribing His thoughts.
