Just had a business dinner with 3 Arab Muslim gentlemen, and had to listen to their inaccurate and scathing diatribe on why pigs are unholy and forbidden by Allah on account of being filthy animals not at all for for human consumption.

We had pigs on our farm growing up, and while I always knew my calling was beyond farming, I can personally attest to some simple truths about pigs.

A pig is without a doubt the cleanest animal on the farm. Pigs don't sweat and don't pant, so they have to sit in the mud in order to keep cool. However, A pig will consistently reserve one section for urination and defecation and will not stray from that as other farm animals will do without reservation.

A pig is the smartest animal on the farm. I have seen pigs tamed better than the best dog, as well as seen pigs go to great lengths to organize and maintain their pen in an organized and clean fashion.

Contrast that with cows or chickens who consistently urinate in the same pool of water they drink from. Why pork is the cheapest meat while people pay top dollar for beef has always been beyond me.

But I know there are several liberals/Muslim sympathizers on here because it's the hip thing to do right now. But just remember, the falsehoods they spew about pigs on account of their ancient religion are inaccurate and a disservice to those who know better.
