I'm a Christian who believes that pork is unclean based on God's Word. I simply call it a "food law." I don't think that people, including Christians, who eat pork will go to hell but I don't think that they will be as healthy as they could be. I lived on a ranch as a young adult and I spent 3 years in the FFA (Future Farmers of America) during high school. Pigs will eat anything and everything including their own droppings. They are the vacuum cleaners of the earth. They are packed full of parasites and are immune to most of the diseases that they pick up because that's how God made them.
Pork is not the only unclean food to eat but that's another topic for another time.
So you do not have any reference for What Jesus says in the new testament?
It is only a sin if you are a Jew and you keep the law. Jesus was a Jew, he kept the law and I'm sure he never touched it. A Christian today is free to eat and drink whatever they want to unless they are over indulging.
Whatever you think for yourself is good to eat, will be. Whatever you think is not good for yourself wont be.It is up to each individual. I eat pork. Joe
So as long as I think that eating E.coli is good, it will be? If I think that eating human flesh is good, will it be? I will definitely need references for this one.
I Do Not Think That It Is A Sin At All To Eat Pork But It Also Depends On Your Religion Or What You Believe In! Weather You Want To Eat Pork Or Not Is All Up To You.

If you believe that Jesus is God and that God is the same yesterday, today, and forever, then there are plenty of references in the Whole Testament which is the Word of God in its entirety. Peter understood that pork was unclean when he had his vision. Many will claim that the interpretation of his vision means that pork is now clean to eat. However, his vision had to do with men and their converstion to Christianity...not meat.
Nontheless, anyone who has had the opportunity to watch pigs will know that they are vacuum cleaners. They are fun to watch and I think they are a neat animal in many ways but I wouldn't eat pork unless by very life depended on it.

Jesus was also our example. If we conclude that He lived His way His way and we are free to live ours our way, then where do we draw a line? Are we each free to do whatever pleases ourselves as individuals? If you say yes, then you are in full agreement with the teachings of secular humanism which is in total opposition to Christianity and its tenets.

Aren't most pigs that are sold for meat kept in better sanitary conditions than most hospitals? I was always told that they are exclusively grain fed and never touch a dirt ground.

Jesus said, it is not what is put in your mouth that defiles you, but what comes out of it. That is written.

I haven't been to every pig ranch that there is but I have been to a couple that claim to be very clean and sterile. The first thing I noticed in both cases was the horrendous stench. Most of the workers there used gas masks. One of the places I went to was feeding slop that had grain mixed in with it. I don't know for sure what else was in it but I wouldn't have eaten it even if I had been one of the pigs. The other place claimed to feed their pigs corn. Most of the corn came from the floors of canneries in surrounding counties. Again, it certainly wasn't something I would have put on my plate. There is no guarantee at any pig ranch anywhere that the pigs aren't eating their own droppings or the droppings of their next door neighbor. Now I only visited for a short time. My eyes burned and it just plain stunk. They seemed to have been kept fairly clean but certainly not cleaner than a hospital. Perhaps there are some out there that do fit the criteria you mentioned but I wouldn't bet on it. Whatever the case may be, I'll stick to free-range beef.
