Oh, oh! Oh oh! Mr. Cotter! Oh! (frantically raises hand, with an enthusiastic desire to be acknowledged, even if there is nothing of true substance to contribute)

I have seen those razorbacks on a dark night in the woods and lived to tell about it....there is something important about this....don't know exactly what....but, for sure, I don't see any good reason to try and make dinner out of one....

Three cheers for the intelligent mammal held in captivity so that it could be slaughtered to eat.

Can I say that?

jesus would drink with anyone, so long as they got the ale in...

he also made his own home brew, and that was where he got all that wine for the wedding party...

jesus doesn't mind u having a bevvy... both beer and champagne were made by monks...

...I've always wanted to go for a bevvy with Jesus, incidentally, wonder what kind of drunk he'd be? would he be a miseryguts, crying into his ale about sin and hell, and how his dad has never liked him... ? would he become an alehouse fighter, squaring up to guys in the bar, wildly flinging his fists about..? would he be an outrageous flirt and a very bad mover, dad-dancing..?

and well... didn't he fish for a bit? so, wasn't a veggie then, either?

Wouldn't it be nice to eat those who eat us?

A bit of revenge would be nice every now and then if done in moderation.

Not that this is significant either, but I just realized that Mr. Kotter's name is spelled with a "K". But maybe there is some meaning to the way I spelled it, because the nearest town to where I spotted the large swine in the woods is (drumroll, please) East Cotter, Arkansas. (And no, it was not wearing a red jersey or a football helmet.)

Also, I wonder what percentage of my posts have actually been spent correcting myself, and out of that percentage, how many times did I really need to do that?

Anyway, your regular program should return momentarily. Thanks for indulging me.

Padumpshhhh... Too spooky

Actually, your phrase "razorbacks on a dark night in the woods" scared the stuffins out of me just reading it!

Another disturbing thought is that we guage how clean the water is by testing the shellfish.. blech

That, is because shell fish filter the water we consume. Consider the lowly Zebra mussel, which can clean Lake Eire before the water moves from the Detroit River to Lake Ontario. If fact it makes the lake too clean...to the point of killing off the algea and other mini life that sustains the rest of the ecosystem.

I do! Hearty meal! Plus being the "other white meat" it gives poor chickens a break...

May I ask why you don't drink or eat pork? Is it for religious reasons or because you don't like them?

Salaam

They're just ugly!

I don't eat pork because I believe G-d said it wasn't a good idea and prohibited at least some people (I think me also) from eating it. I'm a vegetarian because...

1. I believe G-d intended us to be that way.
2. "Seeing that all creatures fear death, cause harm to come to none" (my paraphrase)
3. I don't care much for the taste of meat. I've been known to eat a steak once a year, maybe.

but that's just me...

Best Regards,

The reason pork was not to be eaten was because man was not knowledgable enough to cook it to the point of removing triginosis, among other things. See, man was already violating God's law by consuming red meat with blood still in it. We still do (I like my steak so rare it still moos).

Because porcines (pigs) are foraging animals, they eat more than vegetation, so there was the probability that what was in the pig was not good for human sustanance (or longevity), if eaten raw or undercooked.

What is ignored is that there were many other animals not to be eaten for the same reasons (ducks, wild fowl, snake, bear, any animal with cloven hooves, crustatcians...). All for the sake of lack of knowledge on how to prepare for food.

As far as the human body and the consumption of meat is concerned, we are designed to digest meat (to a degree). We need the fatty acids and protein that meat provides (but not alot of it). Can't get it from vegetables or even bipodals or nuts.

Our system is omnivorous in design (with a strong bent towards vegetation). What is absolutely not good for us is too much cereals. Last thing we need is starch to convert to more sugars...

So, in reality we could do with less fermented drinks (alcohol is converted into sugar). Note, I didn't say do away with it completely, just not too much. However, I have to wonder. Muslims are told not to take fermented drink of the vine or grain...but what about potato, or honey? Nothing in the Islamic bylaws against that.

Anyway, Peter was told in a dream, all of this (the message was two fold). Anything can be eaten (in moderation), and no person is like unclean animals...not to be associated with...since there are no "unclean" animals or people...only "unclean" attitudes...

Unfortunately, few have learned the lesson, even today.

I don't ignore it. I don't eat any of those either.

I completely disagree.

I believe we're designed to be frugivorous. (imo) There's plenty of fatty acid and protein in seeds and nuts. I see absolutely no need for meat.

But hey, that's what works for me. I wouldn't judge anyone else.

I completely agree. We're not to call what G-d made (people and animals) "unclean". My diet works for me and others are welcome to theirs as well. I wouldn't judge someone based upon their diet.

It's what comes out of a man that makes him "unclean".

All the good thoughts!
