VC and Tisme, would you guys care to carry on your bible text discussion elsewhere and let the rest of us return to subjects more relevant to the topic of this thread, such as bacon.
Sermon on the mount Matthew 5 17: 20,
Jesus himself says the following about the laws of the Old Testament.
really?
You actually read the Bible? Because I can think of a few examples of old covenants being made obsolete or spiritualised. One of them is Hebrews 8:13
'Vegemite products are funding terrorism'
National Party MP claims halal-certified groceries fund terror and local campaigns for Sharia law in Australia.
http://www.theage.com.au/federal-politics/political-news/george-christensen-uses-vegemite-to-suggest-halal-products-are-fund
The Age story reports that: "Two weeks ago, South Australian dairy producer Fleurieu Milk and Yoghurt Company was forced drop its halal certification after receiving threats on social media.
As a consequence, it's believed the company lost a $50,000 contact with Emirates."
Surely what the company can do is produce separate halal-certified items for export. And within Australia surely the solution is also to produce two sets of labelling. One with halal-certificates for the 2% of the population that want it and another without halal certification for the other 98% of the population. The halal-certified products will be more expensive. Simple 'user-pays' principle. Why should 98% of the population subsidise the cost of halal-certification for only 2% of the population.
Sermon on the mount Matthew 5 17: 20,
Jesus himself says the following about the laws of the Old Testament.
"Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil. For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled. Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven"
Jesus here is stating that Jewish law will not be changed until heaven and earth disappear,
Trick question: Is Jesus Christ Jewish or Christian?
They would just make the same batch, different bottling. Both being Halal certified, just not labeled as such.
The manager of Fleurieau explained his position very clearly. His conclusion was that the small amount of money brought in by the contract with Etihad (or some ME airline) did not warrant the grief he was receiving via social media accusing him of supporting Muslim terrorism. So he dropped the Halal certification.'Vegemite products are funding terrorism'

7.30's report about this was fascinating. Rumpole, if you've not seen it, then you'll be pleased to see how widely your views are replicated across the population.
Obviously something many people feel extremely strongly about.

I think it's fantastic that there are so many people campaigning about this issue. It's about time somebody started standing up to the creeping islamisation of Australia. As for the Byron Bay Cookie Company defying the protests to maintain their halal certification I think they are just dumb. Of course they can maintain their oversees contracts by certifying the products that they export. But that doesn't mean they have to certify the products that they sell to Australians who don't need the certification and don't want to pay for it.
Trick answer: both
mate, if they just serve up the same thing but put different labels, if the infidels find out they will go nuts and really get upset that they're being served Islam but not being told about it.
So the company must set up a second production line, segregate the flour, the egg, the sugar, the oven etc.
hahah... you can't make this stuff up.
Why is it, Muslims and Jews, don't eat pork?
Do you think the pigs will find it disciminatory?
I mean really, if you can eat a chook or cow, how do you think it makes the pig feel?
Well I'll tell you, the poor thing feels like second class meat, bloody outrageous?
No. In most cases that is totally unnecessary. Many of these products don't even need the halal certification.
Besides, if halal certification can be got rid of in Sri Langka why not in Australia.
"Islamic clerics announced the withdrawal of a halal labelling system for food in Sri Lanka on Monday "in the interests of peace" after protests from Buddhist groups."
http://www.abc.net.au/news/2013-03-11/an-halal-labelling-withdrawn-from-sri-lanka/4566242
Sri Lanka's main body of Islamic clergy, said the halal certificate issued by them would be used only for products that are exported to Islamic countries.
Well done Buddhist Groups
Muslims don't ask for a Halal logo, they don't ask Australian (the non-Muslim kind) to Halal their product either... just that Muslims like their food Halal, a stamp of approval in the form of a logo from an Authority they trusted help them make their decision faster and buy the product.
If businesses want that market, want to make money out of Muslims, easiest way is to have it certified... else just write it on a packaging and hope Muslims would trust it.

Trick question: Is Jesus Christ Jewish or Christian?
Almost.
He's half Jewish (the other half's God) and all Christian.
Though you can argue that he's both Jewish, Christian and Muslim because all those three worship His father.

The context of our discussion relates to the origins and acceptance of halal,
It kind of makes sense a bit, pigs can catch a lot of the same diseases as humans, and in places where sanitation is poor, and pigs muck about in human waste, it poses health risks, and would be unclean.
