Basically these days I look at animals and think to myself,
'Do I want you to live another day or do I want to eat you?'
and it has me vegetarion still because I can be! If I was out in a wilderness I no doubt woul kill animals to eat and survive so I cant claim I am professing a rule for all - just how I am in my circumstances!
And I currently am sat alone and so am behaving cellibately but if a hot ham female appeared before my eyes I would not resist! How could I?
Of course the Mosaic law code forbade both the eating of Pork, and homosexuality. True, Christians today are no longer under the Mosaic law so they can pick and choose which bits to inflict and which bits to ignore.
Interestingly, Christians no longer sacrifice a sparrow over running water when their house has mildew in the walls, as God commanded.
The true shemitic spirit is shown in Israel, in similar fashion to Jehoobies Witlesses.
Just as a Witless can call a lie "strategy" and therefore evade sinning, pork in certain supermarkets is sold as "white penguin steak". The same mentality was shown in Saudi Arabia when Queen Elizabeth of Britain visited. By welcoming her as "King Elizabeth" she was able to go into place forbidden to women.
Just as we no longer accept St Pauls views on slavery and the place of women, other views he expressed are holding no water with many people today.
He himself began this erosion when he admitted to eating pork and other forbidden foods, as well as food sacrificed to idols, and possibly strangled meat when dining with unbelievers.
Of course in MY world everbody is hammysexual, and the concept has never applied!!

Clean and Unclean Meats: What Does the Bible Teach?
Are all kinds of animal flesh suitable for food? Did God design certain animals to be eaten and others not to be eaten? Are Christians free to eat any kind of food, ignoring the instructions of the Bible?
I love ham, the question is--was I born with this? or was it an acquired taste?
I wonder if it matters where you were born. I was born in the South, and I just can't enough of Miss Piggy. No matter how much social pressure I get about it now that I live in the West. They just aren't as progressive, I think the South has an understanding about these things.

Ah, the eternally mysterious question! Environment? Heredity? Learned behavior? So many questions...... watkins

Wasn't there a movie that explored this? "The Hogs From Brazil" or something on that like?
I watched the first few minutes, but it was something of a sausage-fest, so I bailed.

I've been a vegetarian for years, and yet pork is the one animal food that actually smells and sounds good still. Other meats actually looks, smells and sound gross to me.
The Mosaic Law, the Gospels and then Paul are the three main contradictory styles in the bible that prevent me from seeing the bible as the cohesive musings of a single God entity who "does not change".
Well, that and I am familiar with hallucinogenics... I know what it is like to think that crazy, random thoughts are somehow inspired ;)
I'm not sure if people are born hamsexual or not but I know that Jews and Muslims alike beleive hamsesuals are deserving of death. My advice regarding hamsexuals is "don't ask and don't tell. Also if we find out someone is a hamsexual we must be careful to respect them as having an alternative eating habit.
Some of my best friends are hamsexuals!
