< I think it's because it is healthier,some people just don't believe in killing animals,even for food,and for some it is because of religious beliefs.Some religions don't believe in eating meat.

Both Judaism And Islam are religions that govern the  whole way of life, and I think that you are right that because of the climates where they first attracted many believers and the inability to keep meat fresh in the olden days, the relions banned pork as a matter of practicality (Then), unfortunate for modern times when so many people have problems finding enough to eat in the third world....

IT DEPENDS ON WHAT MEAT YOU EAT. GOD HAS CHOSEN ONLY CERTAIN FOODS TO EAT.\n** TEXTS THAT INVOLVE THE CLEAN AND UNCLEAN MEATS:\nGEN.18:7-8; LEV.11; 20:25; DEUT.14; ISAIAH 66:17; EZEK.22:26; DAN.1:8; MATT.3:4; LUKE 24:41-43; ACTS 10:10-14; 1COR.3:16-17; 9:27; 2COR.6:17; AND REV.21:8.\n\n**ALSO YOU CAN'T EAT THE BLOOD OF THE MEAT (LEV.17:14).\n \nJUST A NOTE FOR OTHERS----TO ME; IF THE CLEAN AND UNCLEAN MEATS WEREN'T VALID FOR TODAY; THEN WHY OH WHY WOULD THE LORD PLEAD WITH FLESH NOT TO EAT UNCLEAN MEAT--(ISAIAH 66:15-17). ALSO NOTICE DEUT.14:4 "SHALT NOT EAT ANY ABOMINABLE THING" AND REV.21:8 "...THE ABOMINABLE SHALL HAVE THEIR PART IN THE LAKE WHICH BURNETH WITH FIRE AND BRIMSTONE: WHICH IS THE SECOND DEATH."

It is an unclean meat (Lev. 13). Science has validated this fact, pork is very dirty.\n\nSee Isaiah 65:3-6; 66:15-17 to see what the Bible says about those that eat it.\n\nHope this helps!\n\nGod Bless

I'm muslim and there is no such thing as a "forbidden word" in our religion. We have what may seem like many things forbidden in Islam only because they are bad for us. For example:\n1- alcahol makes you drunk and makes you do things you wouldn't normally do\n2- pork is full of tiny bugs and bacteria that pigs eat and that doesn't die when cooked\n3- adultery... pretty obvious\n4- haveing a sexual relationship before marrage just help ruin a relationship you will have in the future with your spouse\nour religion is firm on these things so that we live healthy, good lives, these aren't unallowed just to give us a hard time.

During this month all Muslims are to fast from sunrise to sunset, they cannot to eat or drink. One must maintain a clean mind and body by purifying oneself.  This is to atone one self and feel what it is like to do without. If one can not fast for a day they must feed the needy.\n\nAt the end of the month Muslims are to sacrifice a lamb or other animal and it is given to the poor. Many in today’s world have a hard time with fasting because of temptation.

Pigs are unclean...\nThey eat human waste...\nThey live in dirt.\nThey are very unhygenic.\nThe pigs make up with their mother pigs...\n\n\n& as God didnt wanted Muslims to let eat pig, he just didnt make neck in the pigs....\nAs Muslims have to slit throught to make the animal halal, the pig cant be slitted as it has no neck, it cant see in sky...

In recent years, Federal Law has recognized that to force a vegetarian to consume meat or go hungry violates the 8th ammendment's protection from cruel and unusual punishment and in several religions, meat is prohibited, making it a matter of religious freedom. While it's sometimes an uphill battle to get the facility to comply with these rules, the law does recognize dietary choice as a Constitutional right and inmates may request vegetarian meals.

Heres the deal. ANY illustration of Mohammed by a Muslim is forbidden. \n\nHowever, it is only forbidden for Muslims. \n\nIts absurd. A comparison would be if Jews all over the world protested and rioted because *somebody* ate pork.

Meaning of the word "Halal": It means "permissible". In the Arabic language it refers to anything that is permissible under Islam.\n\nAdherents of Islam maintain that in order for food to be considered halal, it must not be a forbidden substance and any meat must have been slaughtered according to traditional guidelines set forth by the Sunnah, known as dhabiĥa or Zabihah. This is the strictest definition of halal.\n\nThe slaughtering process, known as dhabiĥa, is as follows.\n\n■ Pre-slaughter\n\nPrior to the slaughter, the animal's eyes and ears are checked to ensure that the animal is healthy and suitable for slaughter. If the animal is deemed to be healthy, it is first given water to drink (in order to quench its thirst).\n\n■ Standard recitation\n\nThe act of slaughtering an animal is an act that, according to the Quran, should be preceded by the mention of God (see Islamic Concept of God). Invoking the name of God at the moment of sacrifice is believed by some to serve as acknowledgement of God's right over all things. Furthermore, this invocation gives permission to the one performing the sacrifice to continue and endows the slaughterer with a sense of gratitude for God's creation, even prior to partaking in the meat of the animal.\n\nThus, the slaugther itself is preceded by the words "In the name of God, God is the Greatest Bismillah, Allahu Akbar.  The common phrase "Bismillah al Raĥman Al Raĥim" (In the name of God the Beneficent the Merciful) is not used here, because the act is one of subduement, not of mercy. Rather, the words Allahu Akbar (God is the Greatest) are used. This is to reiterate that the animal was only subdued for consumption by God's divine design and command, and is being slaughtered according to the guidelines prescribed.\n\n■ Slaughter\n\nAccording to Islamic tradition, the conventional method used to slaughter the animal involves cutting the large arteries in the neck along with the esophagus and trachea with one swipe of an unserrated blade. This method of slaughter serves a dual function: it provides for a relatively painless death and also helps to effectively drain blood from the animal. The latter is important because the consumption of blood itself is forbidden in Islam. Muslims consider this method of killing the animal to be cleaner and more merciful to the animal. During the blood draining process, the animal is not handled until it has died.\n\n■ Meat offered by Jews and Christians: Permissible for Muslims?\nPlease refer to my answer here:\nhttp://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=AkpjqQs4H1NiKHONHPC5.6Psy6IX?qid=20061025160225AAqwI4D

It's up to your diocese (your bishop).  If you check with any parish priest in your area, he can probably tell you what the rule is there.  In my diocese, we're only allowed to eat meat on the 17th if we're at a Church-sponsored St. Patrick's Day meal.
