PIG & PORK FACTS

THE pig or swine is a very popular food item with most Christians. Yet Christians are unaware that the God they profess to believe in had condemned the eating of swine's flesh. The condemnation was based on some very sound biological principles. Here are some facts on pork that prove it to be a very unhealthy food to eat:

A pig is a real garbage gut. It will eat anything including urine, excrement, dirt, decaying animal flesh, maggots, or decaying vegetables. They will even eat the cancerous growths off other pigs or animals.

The meat and fat of a pig absorbs toxins like a sponge. Their meat can be 30 times more toxic than beef or venison.

When eating beef or venison, it takes 8 to 9 hours to digest the meat so what little toxins are in the meat are slowly put into our system and can be filtered by the liver. But when pork is eaten, it takes only 4 hours to digest the meat. We thus get a much higher level of toxins within a shorter time.

Unlike other mammals, a pig does not sweat or perspire. Perspiration is a means by which toxins are removed from the body. Since a pig does not sweat, the toxins remain within its body and in the meat.

Pigs and swine are so poisonous that you can hardly kill them with strychnine or other poisons.

Farmers will often pen up pigs within a rattlesnake nest because the pigs will eat the snakes, and if bitten they will not be harmed by the venom.

When a pig is butchered, worms and insects take to its flesh sooner and faster than to other animal's flesh. In a few days the swine flesh is full of worms.

Swine and pigs have over a dozen parasites within them, such as tapeworms, flukes, worms, and trichinae. There is no safe temperature at which pork can be cooked to ensure that all these parasites, their cysts,and eggs will be killed.

Pig meat has twice as much fat as beef. A 3 oz T bone steak contains 8.5 grams of fat; a 3 oz pork chop contains 18 grams of fat. A 3 oz beef rib has 11.1 grams of fat; a 3 oz pork spare rib has 23.2 grams of fat.

Cows have a complex digestive system, having four stomachs. It thus takes over 24 hours to digest their vegetarian diet causing its food to be purified of toxins. In contrast, the swine's one stomach takes only about 4 hours to digest its foul diet, turning its toxic food into flesh.

The swine carries about 30 diseases which can be easily passed to humans. This is why God commanded that we are not even to touch their carcase (Leviticus 11:8).

The trichinae worm of the swine is microscopically small, and once ingested can lodge itself in our intestines, muscles, spinal cord or the brain. This results in the disease trichinosis. The symptoms are sometimes lacking, but when present they are mistaken for other diseases, such as typhoid, arthritis, rheumatism, gastritis, MS, meningitis, gall bladder trouble, or acute alcoholism.

The pig is so poisonous and filthy, that nature had to prepare him a sewer line or canal running down each leg with an outlet in the bottom of the foot. Out of this hole oozes pus and filth his body cannot pass into its system fast enough. Some of this pus gets into the meat of the pig.

The Pharisees thought they were totally rightious because they followed the dietary laws.

But eating the way God commanded doesn't clean you. You are just following what he says about food.

Jesus was saying that the words comming out of your mouth can defile you.

thats a given, but he also said the food CANT defile you as much as what comes out of your mouth

and in the book of acts, he told peter not to call foods unclean as well

 

[Truthspeaker]

the problem you are all failing to see is that the law of moses was fulfilled upon the death of christ and animal sacrifices and the like did not need to be followed anymore.
As for Leviticus 18, the abominations spoken of and told to avoid were not part of the law of moses, but were rather commandments in general. Homosexuality included.

[Cecilie1200]

Mormons and Catholics funded Prop 8 from out of state.

So? Were you outraged when a bunch of out-of-state leftists came barging into Arizona, demanding that we establish a Martin Luther King holiday IMMEDIATELY and funding groups to push for the initiative?

Or is it just because those evil religionists were involved?

 

[Cecilie1200]

Oh and ehh Leviticus 11:7 says you shall not eat pork, so assuming you eat the pig how do you rectify the two passages?

I looked up Sodom and Gomorrah and some people stress that it was inhospitality and greediness that caused God to smite the twin cities. America still gives much to charity every year, welfare and stuff like that, so I think we'll be fine (don't worry about the people you think are immoral, God's supposed to deal with them individually).

Ahh, another Billy Graham-wannabe who is gonna set those damned religious nuts straight on what their religion teaches and how it should be practiced, damn it, because they JUST don't understand as well as he does, probably because they're stupid enough to actually BELIEVE that silliness and study it all their lives, instead of viewing it with sobby contempt from the outside, like he does.

What is it that makes leftists arrogant enough to imagine that the entire world is hungry for their advice and guidance on things they know nothing about?

No that's also stupid and not needed.
