This issue though is whether this is like religious Jews not eating pork (something they all do) or more like the Taliban insisting on putting pants on donkeys in Afganistan.  :D

I would say the dog ban has moved from catagory #1 to catagory #2 overtime thanks to Western Cultural influence.

Often I find with irreligious muslims if there's one thing they stick to its the not eating pork.

You haven't met enough Bosnians.

Or Winnipeg Jews. Bacon aficionados, many that I know.
:p

One Texas Arab Muslim I know once commented at breakfast that 'Bacon is like brown sugar.  It makes everything better.'

I've no idea, although I'd venture the Saudi Arabia bit is about trying to reclaim a largely defunct islamic tradition.

Disgusting.



If by disgusting you mean delicious, then you are correct, otherwise you might as well be a :brrr: Vegan.

Vegans don't eat delicious sefaradi steaks, thin and hammered, with garlic and onions, fried in olive oil.

Kosher is a sign of civilization.

we've got decent ways to store food now, and real medicine. No need for kosher or halal stuff anymore
Indeed. Its the kind of crap that makes me question even the nicest of muslims.

I have witnessed several Muslims eat pork.  :whistle:

I've seen Muslims (Turks, Sudanese, Iranians) drink alcohol! And seen Israeli Jews eat bacon!  :o
