Default RE: Your DIET - any forbidden foods? - 06-13-2005, 09:52 PM

(((What goes into a man's mouth does not make him 'unclean,' but what comes out of his mouth, that is what makes him 'unclean.' Mat 15:11)))

Forget 'unclean', what we eat can kill us! People in the west are being killed by what they consume. The biggest problem is the consumption of fatty foods, saturated fats etc. People (especially in USA) are offered larger meals for a low price, stupid people accept the offer and stuff themselves not realising that they are literally poisonning themselves.


"And the swine, because it divideth the hoof, yet cheweth not the cud, it is unclean unto you. Ye shall not eat of their flesh, nor touch their dead carcass. [Deuteronomy 14:8]

The Bible says that pork is "unclean" because of the reasons stated above. Pigs also don't have sweat glands, they have to be injected with a lot of antibiotics through feed and/or water to prevent diseases like trichionosis and tapeworms etc.


Apart from religion and culture, geography (animals found in the area) play a major role in the food that is consumed (or food that is shunned).
