    A lot of things that God commanded His people to do/not do don't seem to make a lot of sense, but there is reason for all of them if you research. In biblical times, people didn't know about germs, bacteria, etc. They didn't know how or why to sterilize things, they didn't understand how disease traveled, etc. One of His commands was not to eat pig. It seems random, I know. But the reason is that pigs, back then, were nothing like farm pigs nowadays. They ran through the streets and ate feces and other human waste from the gutters. Eating a pig would have been very unclean. Now, it doesn't really matter, since we moniter what pigs eat. But I still get a little creeped out, since pork looks pretty much exactly like pig flesh. It looks like someone just sliced off a piece of Wilbur's bum and fried it. No thanks.

    • Dispensation of time, many things today differ from biblical times, like birth control. Good answer!
