So What's Up with Muslims and Pork?
Former Muslim (now Christian) blogger Mushiloon mentioned the best way to tell if someone has left Islam is if he eats pork (i.e., a Muslim will do other forbidden things - drink, gamble, not pray or fast - before eating pork. Mushiloon further expands on why pork is forbidden, comparing the Jewish and Muslims beliefs, and also talks about the Muslim belief of the universal role of the Koran. A Muslim imam responds in the comments. Worth a read since I noticed this Islam faith seems to be in the news a bit lately. 10 Responses To "So What's Up with Muslims and Pork?"
I thought the torah forbid us joos from "porkers", you know, fat chicks! Sheesh, vot a schlemiel I am! #1 - Posted by: captamericaberg on September 18, 2006 09:49 AMApparently, quite a few of the 9/11 hijackers did a fair amount of drinking and gambling at the expense of fasting and prayer before the hijackings. I am not sure of their pork consumption. #2 - Posted by: Ron on September 18, 2006 11:14 AMI'm a Christian, and I don't eat pork because I believe the Bible forbids it. Yes, I know other Christians believe it is okay. I just wanted you to know that some Christians have something up with pork too. Can't we all just get along and eat turkey? #3 - Posted by: Anthony on September 18, 2006 01:09 PMThe Apostle Peter had a vision in which a canopy full of "unclean" animals was made clean, so I figure, what is a pig good for on earth? Footballs, bodybags for dead terrorists, and delicious roast pork in all its wonderful forms. It is indeed the other white meat. Maybe that's why they don't like it. #4 - Posted by: Tommy the Towelhead on September 18, 2006 01:20 PMI don't want to get into a debate. Well, yes I do. Read that vision of food that Peter received--before and after that vision. What is he doing? You see, it's really about Gentiles, not food ... Gentiles being "clean" to receive the gospel. Just read the whole story. You'll see. #6 - Posted by: Anthony on September 18, 2006 09:56 PMSorry, I can't give up pork now. It's going to play an important part in my Ramadan celebrations. #7 - Posted by: Rick on September 19, 2006 12:18 AMThen what do they eat at Easter? #8 - Posted by: Ruester on September 19, 2006 07:36 AMFirst of all us muslims dont eat pork because it is forbidden by Allah S.W.T)
Well that was a little blunt. Didn't you read the links that explain the laws on pork? #10 - Posted by: michael r. on September 19, 2006 10:22 PMPost a comment
