If your going to throw ideas out like this and you are indeed entitled to your opinion at least do us all a favor and get your facts straight... Pork has been prohibited by both the Jewish and Muslim faiths for hundreds of years why? to prevent illness and death from improperly butchered and preserved pork due to at the time ignorance of bacterial infection and disease from poor hygiene and sanitary conditions. Beef lamb and poultry did not have issues with Trichinosis like pork so religious edits to protect the followers were issued to prevent disease... Fast forward to today and those same issues are irrelevant in modern society.. So basically the article and you are promoting your beliefs not reality... In Saudi Arabia if you go to the backdoor of the meat market and ask for "Special Meat" you'll get pork I know this because of family who spent 12 years there.. It was hip for blacks in prison who converted to Islam (Farrakhan's version anyway..) to denounce pork because the were good Muslims even though they were raised on it as kids...
