First of all not all Christians do eat pork.
The reason many Christians ignore the passage in the Old Testament has to do with a story in the New Testament, were God tells the apostle Peter that it is OK to eat anything. Many have used this as justification to eat anything that is forbidden in the old Testament.
You can find the story in Acts 10.
Many Christians still avoid pork, because it is not as healthy of a meat to eat or because the still try to keep all the old laws.

After Jesus was resurrected, the Holy Spirit instructed Peter to allow all foods. Jesus wants everyone to come to him, no matter what their background, culture, diet, etc. He is the God for all people. According to the New Testament, spirituality is a matter of faith and of love, not what you eat.

Christians are approved to devour beef because it isn't what is going right into a guy's mouth yet what comes out of it that makes him unclean. also, in financial ruin 10 of Acts, a voice from heaven proclaims, "do no longer call something impure that God has made sparkling." the finished factor of Scripture is redemption. For the Jews, redemption got here through following the regulation. The regulation made differences between what become sparkling and what become unclean. If someone ate what become unclean, that they had ought to make atonement for his/her sin. For Christians, redemption is through conception in Jesus Christ. It concerns no longer what sort of animal you devour (see you later because it wasn't sacrificed to idols). the favor for the regulation of isolating sparkling animals from unclean animals is lengthy previous provided that Jesus got here and made atonement for all.
