Sick Pigs

[GandD 5,966]

Lincoln Mullet threads already get super special attention from the organizers. No worries. TBone will take good care of this.

He polices his threads himself. Beware the wrath! No drift!

it's like you don't even try anymore, mr. mullet.

This thread belongs to P&R. Everyone ambitious wants a spot in the Philippine House of Representatives all because of the pork barrel fund. Those are some sick pigs.

This is really funny in light of recent events.

Irritable bowl disease, leaky gut syndrome, reflux, gastritis... when you consider that pigs have a similar digestive system to humans, the results of this brand new study of pigs who were fed GM crops are "striking and statistically significant."

Pigs on the GM diet were 2.6 times more likely on average to get severe stomach inflammation than control pigs: females were 2.2 times more likely, males were 4 times more likely.

Females had an average 25% heavier uterus than non-GM-fed females, a possible indicator of disease that requires further investigation.

For all of the "pro GMO" crowd who's preparing to debunk the study methods, the following parameters were carefully organized in the study:

- it was led by a researcher with outstanding and relevant credentials in organic chemistry, nutritional biochemistry and metabolic regulation, epidemiology and biostatistics (so they can't claim a "quack" scientist did the study);

- it was conducted at a commercial pig farm, versus in the lab (so they can't claim that it's not a real world situation);

- it was conducted under strict scientific controls that are not normally present on farms (so they can't claim that farm research is invalid);

- it was conducted for a full five months--which is the standard length of time pigs are fed prior to slaughter (so they can't claim that it was not a normal lifespan);

- it was conducted using the same pigs bred and raised on commercial pig farms (so they can't claim it was a "pig prone to problems");

- it was conducted using the standard GM corn and soy diet used on commercial pig farms (so they can't claim that the GM levels were higher than normal, or that they used a non-valid feed source);

- it was confirmed by third party veterinarian autopsies who were not told whether a pig had had a GM diet or the control diet (so they can't claim a bias in the findings);

- it was published in the peer-reviewed Journal of Organic Systems (so they can't claim there was no peer review).

This post is offensive to a wide demographic that thinks pork is unclean and should be locked asap.

Islamic jurisprudence specifies which foods are ḥalāl (حَلَال "lawful") and which are ḥarām (حَرَامْ "unlawful"). This is derived from commandments found in the Qur'an, the holy book of Islam, as well as the Hadith and Sunnah, libraries cataloging things the Prophet Muhammad is reported to have said and done. Extensions of these rulings are issued, as fatwas, by mujtahids, with varying degrees of strictness, but they are not always widely held to be authoritative. According to the Quran, the only foods explicitly forbidden are meat from animals that die of themselves, blood, the meat of swine (porcine animals, pigs), and animals dedicated to other than Allah (either undedicated or dedicated to idols), but a person is not guilty of sin in a situation where the lack of any alternative creates an undesired necessity to consume that which is otherwise unlawful. (Quran 2:173) This is the "law of necessity" in Islamic jurisprudence: "That which is necessary makes the forbidden permissible", which, in the case of dietary laws, allows one to eat pork or carrion, or drink wine or ethanol if one was starving or dying of thirst (although the Shafi'i madhhab differs on the issue of ethanolic drinks).

How has Mr Mullet not asked for this to be closed yet? Not only are we off topic, we're in off topic.

[Kathryn41 3,205]

Off Topic posts have been split from this thread and moved to Site Discussion which is the appropriate forum for that discussion, and to allow this thread to remain 'on topic'.
