Why is eating swine bad?

[spiggity_ace]

why is it so bad, can someone tell me about it, whats the symbolism of eating a swine that is so bad, and does it include stuff like pepperoni, bacon etc., i know some muslims who say they dont eat swine but still eat bacon and pepperoni.

[begongo]

[LORD NOSE]

i have a great dislike for muslims who eat pork. there is alot of them who do. you would be surprised. some who come from different sects of Islam try to justify it by saying they are allowed, but thats even more ludicrous.

anyway the story goes that back in the day ppl who ate swine got ill more often than not. in addition the fact that pigs will try and eat anything and eat their own shit only solidifies the fact that it is a dirty animal. reason why we are told not to eat swine.

[LORD NOSE]

the pig was made to eat the dead

[narc]

then what is it ?

food

i did learn from the movie snatch to be wary of any man that keeps a pig farm.

so the only reason muslims cant eat pig is becuz its unclean, i thought their was something else involved.

Actually, the Quran forbids swine meat, PERIOD. That is the reason. The Quran does not say why it is forbidden, it just is.

The old testament also forbids swine meat. Ironically, a lot of the people who claim to be Christians eat pork. Their argument for doing so is that Jesus brought the new testament and the old testament is outdated. This excuse is hypocrisy of course, because Christians follow other old testament verses; they basically choose what to follow from their book like a buffet.

Won't other animals such as chickens eat just about anything also? There are quite a few humans that are just as dirty, or even dirtier than pigs too. Look at the amount of obese people in the world.
