Muslims and Jews both don't eat pork, why don't they eat it? And why do Christians eat it?

scientific research has proven that pork, when butchered/slayed/i dont know the word.....the blood remain in their body---unlike chicken or cows. the short neck of porks makes it hard for blood to go out. porks also eat anything: meat vegtables, etc--they're like trash bag--dirty. muslim dont allow its believers to consume blood and dirty animals. that's why muslim cannot eat porks.
Beside, it's clearly writen in koran that muslim cannot eat porks.

If you want the technical reason, it's because God said not to. There are a lot of reasons for this, as well - pigs are, essentially, garbage cans. They eat their feces, other creature's feces, EVERYTHING. They have a lot of diseases, and in the old days, there was no sure way to make sure that these diseases were purged. Nowadays, with science and technology, it's gotten a little better - but seriously. Would you eat a scavenger? A vulture, or some other creature that feasts on the worst things available? Besides, there's a whole bunch of other things out there. Of course, in extreme cases, such as when there is nothing else around, and you are going to die of starvation, it becomes lawful. The only time Paul ever ate pork was when, in a dream, he was isolated from all food and dying of hunger. God put down pork before him and told him to eat. He replied that pork was unlawful - he couldn't eat it. And then God told him that if there is nothing else around, and He told him to eat, he was to eat.

Pork is considered unclean. A pig has no sweat glands therefore it can not get rid of the toxins so everything is absorbed into the meat. Christians can it because they do not live under the old law in the Bible. I do not eat it because I realize the effects of bad nutrition. I am a Christian I just choose not to eat it. Smart decision to eliminate it, I feel better and my joints no longer ache.

Jews do not eat pork because it was very unsanitary during the HOT times without refrigeration etc. in the middle east.
Mo copied this segment of Judaism and a few others. He didn't even hate Jews until his wife (an R.C.) taught him that he should!' Most of islam is copy cat stuff from ancient tribal customs etc. Even the moon god allah is the old village god of Takrit...Mo's home village.
