Nagel Posted December 4, 2011 Share Posted December 4, 2011 When I started this thread I didn't intend for it to become a nutter's convention. Honestly, I didn't. Why ever not? The whole of SF is a nutter's convention. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plain Talker Posted December 4, 2011 Share Posted December 4, 2011 I like Christopher Hitchen's Chapter - A Short Digression on the Pig (Why Heaven Hates Ham) I tried watching that, but decided I could not deal with nine and a half minutes of the epilepsy-inducing flashing text, after my migraine headache started about a minute into watching the video.

Bethsmummy Posted December 4, 2011 Share Posted December 4, 2011 They say cats are the cleanest animal, but I sure as hell wouldn't eat one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeffrey Shaw Posted December 5, 2011 Share Posted December 5, 2011 It's the same as the Bible saying you can't eat shellfish. It's probably because a lot of people that did got very ill or died. I think the Bible also says you can't eat Camel?! No, it says that Jews cannot. The basic requirements for quadrupeds to be capable of human consumption by Jews are: a. chewing the cud; and b. wholly-cloven hooves. Camels/rabbits/hares qualify on only a but not b. Pigs qualify on only b but not a. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeffrey Shaw Posted December 5, 2011 Share Posted December 5, 2011 Why do some religions consider pigs unclean? I for one have never seen a cow wipe its bottom. I don't reckon that chickens spend a great deal of toilet paper either. 'Unclean' is a misnomer, in this context. The proscribed animals are classed as 'impure' in a Jewish context only; animals' cleanliness is not a factor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
