[QUOTE]Originally posted by *Dalia*: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Tigerlily: [qb] Eating pork infront of a Muslim is like drinking alcohol infront of him. Both of these things are forbidden in Islam. [/qb][/QUOTE]Yes, but it is not forbidden to be around someone who eats pork. Even if you follow conservative teachings of Islam, it doesn't make sense since Muslims are allowed to marry Christians for whom pork is not forbidden. I am very much in favour of respecting other people's faith, but saying that a non-Muslim should not be allowed to eat pork in the presence of a Muslim just doesn't make sense. [QUOTE]Originally posted by Tigerlily: [qb]Excellent question which I just ask myself. First of all I would not share a place with a vegetarian because in the longer run this issue could become complicated. Using the same cooking utensils, the smell etc. And if I was a die-hard vegetarian, a member of PETA and would feel disgust about meat in general I'd opt to live with another vegetarian. In this way we could even cook together, exchange recipes etc. and I wouldn't have to endure the sight of raw meat pieces or stuffed turkey any longer. So it would be a win-win situation. [/qb][/QUOTE]Wow, and I thought I was a die-hard vegetarian. :D Seriously, I believe you are making this more complicated than it is. As I said, I had roommates in the past, and this has never been an issue. We did cook together and exchange recipes. Even meat lovers don't live on meat alone, you know. ;) Oh, and one of my roommates cooked a great vegetarian mulukhyia for me. My sister is a veggie too, her husband loves meat. They don't have any problems with that at all. Really, it is not as complicated as you make it out to be. ;) [/QB][/QUOTE]
