i know this is a really dumb question, but do muslims avoid pork yet treat pigs nicely or are they like revolted by pigs even when not faced with the prospect of eating them



i think most muslims are grossed out by pigs and taught tehyre dirty or whatever but thats not sunnah, thats just lazy or ignorant cultural teaching. youre supposed to treat all of gods creation as pure and good, the prohibition is not to keep you away from the evil dirty piggies but just an injunction on how to live properly as a servant of the Creator

is it funny that i assumed this to have some sort of validity by virtue of the fact that you worked in finance and might know a thing or two about the Tribe

#1491
isn't goldsmith already an openly hebrew poster
#1492
the pig is sacred to the jews because he protects their wealth against angry mobs

my swarthiness, aquiline nose, and hebrew first name made my boss at the bank think i was jewish. i could have taken off for religious holidays if i would have known earlier

#1495
Cops are also called pigs sometimes, as slang <--- a funny language fact that might add a whole new "level" to this thread, if someone is smart enough to figure it out

(bf lumps evolution, genetics and animal cognition in same basket as all secular science. there's some factual validity and they can undoubtedly be handy, but fundamentally they're an irrelevance which bears no importance to how a human being should conduct their life, or whether they should chomp on a delicious well-prepared gorilla steak)
