Being Jewish, I do not eat pork or shellfish because the Bible prohibits it, but, I don't feel compelled to make up excuses.

Those of you who enjoy pork, eat some barbequeue ribs tonight in honor of MoHAMmed.

The real reason Muslims don't eat pork: Allah disapproves of cannibalism.

Warning! This is a high-volume ping list.

Mmmmm....that story went well with the Liverwurst sandwich I’m eating! If God did not want us to eat pork, He would not have made pigs out of meat...

It dislikes sunlight and lacks the spirit and will to "fight".

Someone needs to take this fool boar hunting in Arkansas.

The Bible has also forbidden swine-flesh, but Christians disregarded this order and started consuming it.

Yeah Buddy, we have this Jesus fellow that said that animals can not be unclean...only man. We don't ignore it, it simply doesn't apply. Doofus

Anything, which is harmful for the body, hurts the soul as well.

I thought that a person is not defiled by what goes into their mouth but by what comes out of it.

“Islam lays great emphasis on our physical as well as moral health”

- Perhaps this explains why the ‘devout’ Taliban’s are into drug trade?

No, that's not it. It was to remove another form of sexual temptation.

“Consumption of swine-flesh reduces the feeling of shame and as such the standard of modesty.”

So what are the muzlims eating that reduces their feeling of shame for randomly blowing up women and children? Since they don’t drink, smoke, or consume pork, what is the magic ingredient that makes their religion a purveyor of vilonce and murder? Is a slow death by disease worse than death by getting blown to bits in an instant?

I will have some more bacon please. I don’t believe bacon will make me have the urge to kill my non bacon eating fellow humans.

A pig may always be a pig. But also a murderer is always a murderer. An uneducated barbarian is always a barbarian.

abstention from eating pork is one of the steps taken by Islam to practise hygiene

I suppose wiping ones ass with their bare hand was also a step in the hygiene direction, after all they only used one hand and promised not to eat with it.

Some people have argued that the "modern pig" reared in farms is given only clean foods, therefore, its flesh should be consumable. The answer is that you may feed the pig on clean, wholesome food, but you cannot change its nature. It is still a pig and will always stay so.

Following this same logic what can be said of the "Modern Muslim"? You cannot change his nature.

I think these ancient prohibitions against eating pork arose because of this:

“Trichinosis, also called trichinellosis, or trichiniasis, is a parasitic disease caused by eating raw or undercooked pork and wild game products infected with the larvae of a species of roundworm Trichinella spiralis, commonly called the trichina worm. The few cases in the United States are mostly the result of eating undercooked game or home reared pigs. It is most common in the developing world and where pigs are commonly fed raw garbage.”

When science determined what the problem was, it also provided the solution.

I’m happy for this article’s explanation, because here I always thought that it was because Islam is a cheap knock off of Judaism and Chritianity. Now I know better.

(Food) is absorbed and metabolised into the system and circulated to all parts of the human body, including the brain, and this in no small way affects man’s nature.

From this I can only conclude that the #1 food in the Muslim world must be rats.

Since pigs are smarter than the average Muslim male, how can eating them “degrade moral character”?

This is the same logic (almost to the word) that appears on Ask The Imam.

I don’t know why I thought of this dialogue:

Jules: I don’t eat dog either.

Vincent: Yeah, but do you consider a dog to be a filthy animal?

Jules: I wouldn’t go so far as to call a dog filthy but they’re definitely dirty. But, a dog’s got personality. Personality goes a long way.

Vincent: Ah, so by that rationale, if a pig had a better personality, he would cease to be a filthy animal. Is that true?

Jules: Well we’d have to be talkin’ about one charmin’ mother****in’ pig. I mean he’d have to be ten times more charmin’ than that Arnold on Green Acres, you know what I’m sayin’?
