Why do some religions forbid eating pork?

2023-04-20 14:09:41

Muslims and Jews have a religious ban on eating pork. Both religions were formed in hot countries, where such perishable and dirty meat as pork is dangerous for human health.

It is known that pigs are omnivorous - they are able to digest everything they find: from carrion to their own excrement. The animals themselves do not suffer from this, but for humans, the toxins accumulating in pork are a real poison. The sages of the past came up with the idea that it is much easier and faster to convince your loved ones that a pig is almost a fiend of hell than to explain that this meat can be dangerous to health. There is another reason - pig farming requires a lot of fresh water, and the Middle East is an arid place. Breeding pigs turns out to be unprofitable.

But initially, God's instructions about food did not contain any prohibitions. Everything that moves that lives will be your food

Why don't Jews and Muslims eat pork, but Christians do?

What will happen if Ukraine wins the war?

Russia will have to pay hundreds of billions to compensate for the physical damage caused by the invasion. Military restrictions of the Russian Navy: no Russian Navy in the Black, Azov and Baltic Seas for 50 years. Military restrictions of the Russian army: from all its northern, western and southern borders, Russia must withdraw troops at least 100 km. War crimes: Russia must be punished for its wartime atrocities. Nuclear weapons: Under the new treaty with NATO, Russia must immediately agree to reduce its nuclear weapons to a quantity and quality no greater than that of the United States, and agree to inspections by NATO to ensure this compliance.

The scenario is plausible if Ukraine is supported long enough or fought on the side of Ukraine.

All that stops the West from these scenarios is Russia's possession of nuclear weapons.

What consequences can be expected for the European Union after Apple was ordered to pay a 13 billion euro fine?

No one will want to start a large business in the EU

The EU has no advantages over Asian countries. A 50% tax is too high; for example, in Singapore it is 0%. The military conflict between Russia and Ukraine also makes doing business difficult, as sanctions hit the EU itself, raising the prices of all energy sources, which directly affects the prices of goods and services.

The essence of the lawsuit is that all EU countries should impose the same 50% taxes, and if a country is an EU member, it cannot independently make tax preferences. Most likely, soon countries will start leaving the EU, as the United Kingdom did.
