If eating pork is against their religion, I wonder whether the crimes they committed also weren't against their religion...what happened? suddenly found religion?

You made me spill the hot chocolate on my key board

Christianity is basically the only religion that is against violence of any kind... I read the Jewish bible and the Quran and was frightened that people even believe and 'observe' that thing

Shouldn't the "Separation of Church and State" be invoked here? Why is the government kowtowing to Muslims dietary restrictions?

Feed them pork! Better yet, don't feed them any meat at all. Feed them beans and corn bread every day! They don't deserve special treatment.

And the bold means what exactly?

Are you arguing that because someone breaks societal law, that it should be fine for them to break laws of God as well?

Ben Carson doesn't eat pork either, btw. His religion, which is a branch of Christianity, follows Biblical dietary laws.

beef, and corn also goes up and down too, corn is worth more than pork is with all the alchohol plants in use, I do not see the feds getting rid of corn.
Pork is elastic and can be substituted. Oil is not.

try driving a gas powered car with water if you wish though.

Beef is on the menu 4 days a week. Been grocery shopping in the last few years? Not exactly a cheap alternative. So the notion that it was for cost effectiveness is bunk.

Please read my post, I did not actual advocate in favor of beef over pork, I only responded to someone who said that they werent getting ride of oil.

that person seems to not understand that one can be replaced where as the other one can not.

Beef is cheaper than pork in reality as Beef can be used multiple ways and combined with other dishes. A Taco salad with beef is likely not even a hand full of beef(or even one full serving of beef). it likely cost less per pond than pork does.
