Jews = Kosha
Christians = Whatever they want
Muslims = Halal, which is more or less the same as kosha.

it was simply not a good idea to eat pork and shellfish in the middle east. those dietary laws are more the early form of food hygiene than anything.
same with the foreskin thing, cuts down on infection and that.

It's not the will of God, but the absence of refridgeration and adequate food hygiene you stupid cunts.

The rules are designed for pre-technological, desert-dwelling nomadic tribal survival. If you can't refrigerate stuff, it goes off. Shellfish, pork, milk-based dishes etc etc are not good ideas in a desert.
