Re: Why does Allah care if we eat pork or not?
FairyTale, i like yor modus ponens/tollens example :)
YB - Apart from the reasons that a pig is a dust bin (consuming anything and everything), it is infested with diseases, I'm not sure why pork is haraam...but what I do know is that it's very difficult to rationalise everything.
No doubt, it's good to find the wisdom as to why Allah has prohibited and allowed certain things. It's also very good to explain these wisdoms, but at the end of the day, you won't be able to rationalise everything, and one thing you have to realise is that you do things because Allah said so. Maybe it is our test, so we put our trust in Him, and we submit to Him before anything. :)
