People of every language have been comparing other people, tribes, even entire nations, to lower beasts to either praise or insult ever since people could talk. This is a fact.How do I “lose my sanity” over what I eat? Jewish food is the best!
Washing your hands before eating is definitely beneficial to one’s health. It is why the Jews in the Middle Age were largely spared from the Black Plague.
The creatures described in kosher law are metaphors for human archetypes. Their flesh, whether clean or unclean, represents their teaching, beliefs, ideology, superstitions, etc.
Kosher law has nothing to do with food that you eat but teaching that people repeat and adopt.
If you eat the flesh, swallow the teaching, of any creature that does not ruminate, think deeply, it will defile and contaminate your mind and you will become a creature that cannot ruminate, think deeply. If you don't believe me try to have a rational conversation with anyone who "just believes"
They have their reward already!
See? Divine law remains in effect and is still in full force whether Jew or Gentile, believer or not..
