They don't. You are correct. But it would still be like keeping pigs in a church.

Not respectful.

The issue with pork, to Jews, Christians (real ones), and Moslems, is all about Tammuz, the illegitimate bastard son born to the harlot Semeramis.

Tammuz, who was worshiped as the ‘sungod’ was gored to death by a pig on his 40th birthday, setting up pigs as the pagan sacrifice of choice.

Thus believers eschewed all pork, so as not to mislead unbelievers that they were evangelizing. (The “meat offered to idols.”)

The way Pigs were raised also was grossly “unclean.”

For those seeking to be under Yehova’s renewed covenant, it is a matter of obedience and respect. (can’t speak for Moslems)
