** Why some of the food is forbidden in ISLAM

Islam is a religion who forbidden to eat certain foods that are considered to be good for the body, according to scientists. But basically Islam forbids most of those foods, which is not dreadful for our health. If God create the whole creature of the world, as stated in Islam, why he banned some animal and some not. Why do these differences between the creatures??

I am turning to atheism and abandoning the religious ways of my parent in response to radical Islam and extremism, as those ideologies inspire atrocious acts against others, including other Muslims. I seek better life where religion does not trespass into my private lives.

Hellooo Amin I question your conclusions on Islam the faith.,

What food the rules of Islam forbid that is not forbidden in other faiths which were present before the birth of Islam? List me names some foods that are forbidden in Islam please..

Frankly speaking Islam has forbidden nothing and it produced NOTHING NEW, NO NEW RULES FOR HUMAN SOCIETY ... I mean new rules on anything ... be it economic, be it political, be it religious, be it family rules ..and..and that includes even this

EVERYTHING IS COPY PASTED INTO ISLAM ..good stuff as well as bad stuff., The only difference between Islam and other faith followers is ., Majority of Muslims appears to be lot stricter following their faith rules than the followers of other faiths

Do not let silence become your legacy.. Question everything

Islam has a lot of ridiculous bans, but I fail to see how pork is good for your health. I have no use for it; it is full of fat and ridiculously greasy. The same goes for alcohol; very bad for your health and since late last year, I only drink it every 3-4 months, if that. There are so many things that cause potential health risks these days, I have no use for consuming the ones that I didn't used to consume just because everyone else is doing it.

That's the only thing that I am grateful to Islam for, to be honest.

I don't eat pork. Nor does the kiddo. Maybe I'll eat something like once every 6 months. Like last time I ate pork was when I was at a restaurant and had a pizza with salami Milano. Their only non-pork alternatives were not to my taste, so I was basically "forced". The thing is that I don't like making my life difficult because of some stupid restrictions. That's why I had my rebellious phase and wanted to force myself to do all the harami stuff I had avoided because I was afraid of Allah. Then I grew up, emotionally, and went on with my life. I'll still call myself a non-practicing, really not believing, Muslim, and if someone has anything to say about that they can fakk off.

But I do drink alcohol without restriction and commit zina without a regret in the world. It's something about the pork that just makes it extra haram for anyone to process

I had pork a couple of times for the sake of rebelling but it was way overrated. I have gone back to my pescetarian diet

Alcohol can be fun, so I don't cut it out completely. But since I already grew up eating pork and it's no good for ones health anyway, I don't see the need. There are better ways to defy Allah's laws such as zina (as you mentioned) and blasphemy.

dear A_GD., All foods I see in that Amin's list are good as long as you eat responsibly but when you start eating irresponsibly every food is bad....

Dear A_GD,
YEEZEVEE is absolutely right. Any food of the world if you eat irresponsibly then its turn out wrong. For example poor dieting system.

I am turning to atheism and abandoning the religious ways of my parent in response to radical Islam and extremism, as those ideologies inspire atrocious acts against others, including other Muslims. I seek better life where religion does not trespass into my private lives.

Sturgeon eggs are good for your health. So is beluga. So is the meat of bullhead-which around here taste really good. I do like catfish if it is done right, but have heard criticisms about how healthy it is.
I haven't eaten the rest of the list, but I think pork is a decent source of protein, especially if you need your meat to be priced affordably.
