Doohicksie Posted January 30, 2020 Report Posted January 30, 2020 It turns out that people with a certain tick-borne disease are naturally immune to the new flu bug, so doctors are recommending Corona with Lyme. Quote

To be very clear the Qur'an does not expressly forbid pork, but it does clearly state that if something is forbidden for others in other books of revelation then it is forbidden for you. Since pork is forbidden for Jewish people it is, therefore, forbidden for Muslims. Not to derail the thread ... What about shellfish?

So you're not allowed to watch the Sabres, either? 1 1 Quote

This has me thinking about it. I looked it up (I'm not a hafiz - a person who has momorized the Qur'an) and I found that eating of the flesh of swine is forbidden in the Qur'an. Now the shellfish are not forbidden in the Qur'an, but most Muslims do not eat them as they are forbidden for our Jewish brothers and sisters. So, since it is forbidden for them it is forbidden for us. The Sabres are very disappointing, but they do not cloud my mind. Quote

Well, the proscription against pork and bivalves always made sense to me when considering hygienic practices in ancient times. Food that was potentially dangerous was deemed unclean and forbidden. Sensible. I never really got why the Jews banned lobster and crabs, though. Quote
ubkev Posted February 7, 2020 Report Posted February 7, 2020 First it was Gwyneth Paltrow. Now it's Erykah Badu. Why? Sweet Jesus why? When I walk into a room, cucumber melon is a nice scent. Sometimes pine is a little overpowering. Fresh linen is usually pretty good. I've never wanted a waft of ***** fumes to permeate the air for my guests and loved ones. I don't know. Maybe it's me. It's probably me. Everyone should have a ***** scented room in their house. Quote

MattPie Posted February 19, 2020 Report Posted February 19, 2020 I'm reading Randall Munroe's "What If?" right now, and it's so much fun. It feels like something our own Randall would be good it. Hockey content: there's no way that you could shoot a hockey puck fast enough to push the goalie into the net. https://what-if.xkcd.com/39/ Quote

Clearly, experiments are needed to confirm this.) Uh, I think we could assist with some anecdotal evidence of this phenomenon. 1 Quote
