Your question is interesting in that it seems to be seeking a rational explanation for the "walking on water" miracle. There are some birds with webbed feet and a wide footprint who can walk across flat lily pads without sinking, so maybe you are thinking of something like that. One biblical scholar has suggested that there may have been ice on the sea of Galilee in some winters during Jesus' time.
But I think all of these explanations are far-fetched. It's more likely that (a) the thing reported in the gospels is meant to be taken literally (whether or not it actually happened) or (b) the thing reported is symbolic. I go for (b).

For the same reason both Moses & Jesus refused to eat it. God commanded Muslims not to eat Swine meet. God also commanded Moses not to eat or even touch the Swine meat as in the following verses in the Bible: LEVITICUS 11:7-8 "and the pig, for though it divides the hoof, thus making a split hoof, it does not chew cud, it is unclean to you. You shall not eat of their flesh nor touch their carcasses; they are unclean to you. "
The pig is the most shameless animal on the face of the earth. It is the only animal that invites its friends to have sex with its mate. ." If you eat filth you have the effect of filth.

Jesus wasn't crucified and he wasn't harmed and he wasn't killed, Jesus still alive and he was raised to the sky in a special place and he is no God son he is just a prophet, and a word from God and for sure he'll be back soon I guess, and in the judgment day God will ask him in front of the humanity "did you ask these people to warship you instead of me or did you say that you are me on earth" he'll say for sure NO.

nope, don't think so! If he was to be the example of the perfect human form, then you need to imagine the most beatiful specimen of Man. And not this sickly-figured bearded man we see in churches nowdays!

Yes. Also he had goat's feet, a tail of 33 centimeters and a winning smile.

Probably not, but I'm willing to bet the Lord sported a clean shaven vagina.
