And it appears the citizenry didn't want him buried in the cemetary either. It never ceases to amaze me how much of an asshole major religions make god out to be. Here's a secret: If he's a loving god, he doesn't give a shit if you eat whatever you want, whenever you want. And if he's an asshole, he's not worth worshipping because if he is going to waste his time dicking around with diets here on Earth, just imagine what a PITA he'll be in heaven.
Good point. In either case, civil authorities have no business enforcing or punishing infractions of religious practices. Barbaricism reigns when there is no religious freedom.
