What Has Relgion Said About Dead Meat? by spikedcylinder: 1:33pm On Jun 19, 2008 |
Correct me if i'm wrong but i'm of the opinion that the two major religions are opposed to people eating meat that hasnt been slaughtered. As in, meat that didnt die on its own of natural causes or disease. Abi? I dont know the bible well but i have three quotes to back me up a bit on this: Leviticus 17:15: I dont know what or where to quote from the Quran but i'm pretty sure its there. However, i get confused when people eat some animals that have been dead way long before it reaches the slaughter table eg. Fish, crabs etc. Are there exceptions to this rule? |

Why is this important in anyway? Would you re-organise your life based on the bible's (or K-ran's) stipulation on matters of diet? |

Hauxley, that's a rather ignorant comment YAHAWAH(YHWH) gave these dietry Laws for a specific reason from Lev 11 we can clearly see that the scavengers are not to be eaten because they carry and can transmit deadly sicknesses. Since YHWH is The Creator, I'm sure He knows what's the best diet for your health. Hey Huxley try this sometime, go to your restroom re-organise a log of shit out of the toilet,and on your plate, pray to Jesus over it then dig right in, Let us know how it tastes ![]() |

Why don't you numskulls go tell the aborigines that live in papau new guinea who can't herd cattle or find your brand of sustenance to stop eating dead pigs they happen to find and the die. When they do then god will welcome them into heaven. Numskulls!! |

@ Morpheus24 Your Father is the numskull for bringing an slowpoke such as yourself into this lovely world of ours. I've warned you to watch your mouth around me and stop following me around like a liitle female dog. No salaam for you this time Victory |

morpheus24: Dude!! I'm sure they expect them to go to the local grocery store or deli and buy some T-bone steaks and Croned beef or prolly order some pizza from Pizza hut. What rubbish. The day you people stop living in fear of the after life and start trying to survive this life that you already have, maybe then things would change for the better. huxley: Then they might as weel live on daily rations of unleaven bread and wine. |

I dont think not wanting to eat meat that wasnt slaughtered, has anything to do with religion. Why would anyone want to eat an animal that died of unknown causes? Personally, I cant knowingly eat anything that died mysteriously, since I dont know what sickness killed it. Nothing to do with religion, as far as I'm concerned. All things being equal of course. If you're starving none of this applies. |

obviously christianity supports not eating it as evidenced from the few bible verses you v quoted and medically its not healthy im pretty sure the rastafarians do not eat them as well |

@manchibabe Please stop the next time you see some roadkill regardless of how long it's been laying there, pick up the dead animal then take it home and cook it for your family, dont forget to pray to Ea-Zeus Christos to bless the meat for you and hope you don't end up in a hospital. |
Re: What Has Relgion Said About Dead Meat? by morpheus24: 1:16pm On Jul 08, 2008 |
manchibabe:Manchibabe, Actually the new testament does not have Jesus breaking the law of eating unclean animals, because of the traditions of many nations who adopted christianity, loop holes have been found to tryo to convince people that the law of of abstaining from eating dead animals or unclean animals has some how been revoked in the new testatment. If you look carefully at the chapters that reference this practice in the new testament, there is nothing explicit that really revokes the laws of the Old testament, but realize one thing which is stated by Jesus in the new testatment which says "the Law is made for Man and not Man for the law" If you are religious person then understanding this phrase should put you at ease concerning eating dead flesh or unclean meats. On the other hand scientifically speaking, endulging in such practices is biologically unhealthy for you as proven by science. |

spikedcylinder:Well, according to Jesus Christ, it is not what you eat that makes you unclean or causes you to sin against God. All food you eat simply goes through your mouth and is passed out afterward as feces, so there is nothing wrong with you eating dead meat if that is your fancy - Matthew 15 vs 10 - 20 & Mark 7 vs 13 - 23. ![]() As for me, If I came upon a freshly dead deer or I use my car jam deer for the road by accident, I go load am up inside booth immediately, carry go home straight... pepper soup and barbeque all year long. ![]() |
