Theres not a damn thing wrong with pork...humans institute injunctions and rules for purposes of proporgating an idealism.
Some say the same things about other animals they find repulsive, forgeting that all manner of animal consumption could be vile and repugnant to other religions who abhore the acts, and also to people that just plain dont consume any manner of flesh.
there are a million reasons both speculative and real why an act could be termed inhuman or abhorant.
Goat which is widely consumed is one of the filthiest animals with regards to what it eats and digests.
I am vegeterian by choice, not by a religious injunction. people should eat what they like in moderation, and nothing more....

I dont know how true this is but a friend of mine just told me that new research by some scientist has revealed that those who abstain from pork strickly on religious grounds have a higher tendency to be violent, easily provoked or in other words ''less religiously tolerant of others''.I think their is something in pork DNA that calms the rest of the population down.

Well, my dear brother. Allah created man and every other thing scientists are researching into. They are only researching what he already knew. Hence, the commandment for muslims not to eat pork is not scientific but spiritual. There was no way our prophet Muhammed (Peace Be Upon Him) could have known how dangerous pork was at that time. It only meant that the commandment came from a higher authority.

If you pick uo the Qur'an, not just the issue of eating pork, there are so many other commandments/admonitions and information that could not have been possible to know back then. It is only now that we have microscopes and all "other forms of scopes" grin that we can tell.

For further reading, google scientific miracles of the Qur'an.

is there any thing miracle in Qur'an? one sheik ever said that the prophet forbid eating of pork meat because it dug water for him when he was tasty in a desert.

The Bible is a progressive book. The first 5 books of the bible (which includes Deuteronomy) consists of sermons and laws given to the Isrealites by the Lord through Moses. In the new testament, God sent his son, Jesus who came and redefined things. So stop chatting nonsense.

Samsantos9: Pork is one of the sweetest meat. If well cooked it is totally harmless and pigs have a very efficient liver that detoxify any toxin it takes in. BTW chickens eat cockroaches, worms, maggots, e.t.c and cow also contains tape worms why didn't Muhammad ban the eating of chicken and beef?
do u knw dat dere r some harmful bacterias dat don't die even if cooked for 2yrs. And u can direct ur question to google, it'll giv u d bst answer. Olorinla!

Pigs are reared in the most hygienic of conditions these days, therefore, all the reasons given above do not hold water. From my point of view, the pig was created by God for our consumption. Why else was it created?

You think you can understand the words of Jesus with just one verse? I pity you

Arsenate: So basically, Islam prohibits pork eating for medical/health reasons not for spiritual reasons. I see. So it simply means that if one can breed pigs in clean hygienic environment, a muslim eating it won't be a bad thing, no?

Lol.. breed a pig in a castle for all I care it wud still be a filthy animal.

The extent people will go to justify sin...even down to disputing loud and clear Bible quotes and hiding behind ambiguous and general quotes instead. Its a pity sad but then sha, when some people's minds are already hardened on certainthings, no matter how clear the proof you bring them, they will still argue with you and reject it, though in their heart of hearts, they know they are wrong.

Nothing that enters the system via the mouth corrupts indeed. I guess those who fall ill (whether lung cancer or kidney failure or food poisoning) and those who get intoxicated are not corrupted by what enters their mouth then. Mumu logic.

Continue eating your pork, no one's stopping you but stop denying/ deliberately misinterpreting explicit Bible quotes that have forbidden you from eating it. But dont forget that a day is coming when human logic will fail & you'll be asked "Were you not told?" God help us.

I don't know if to classify this one's post as religious ignorance. Seriously, where in the Bible does it say eating pork is a sin? Isn't Mark 7:18-19 explicit enough for you? Or Acts 10:9-15?

The extent you people go to deny that something is not a sin baffles me.
