Rabbi: Well, lessee, Yahweh made the Heavens and the Earth, and he
made the Land and the Seas, and he made all the Plants and the Insects
and the Animals. And we know some plants aer bad to eat, and some
insects contain poisons. Perhaps it's Yahweh's will that some animals
are bad to eat.

King III: Ok, so it's God's will, then? And not just the fact that
pigs wallow in their own **** and eat it too?

Rabbi: Sounds good to me. Better add this info to the sermons and make
sure the memos get passed on to the Talmudic Scholars.

Yeah, that was probably something of the gist of it. Of course, in the
millennia since, we've gotten a lot of really subtle justifications for
the kosher laws, including some that come very close to numerology.
"God made things in ones and twos, and anything that varies from these
are non-Godly. So cloven hooves are bad, since that's one leg and two
hooves, which makes three..." That's not the real argument, but the
Talmudic arguments that I've read are quite similar to that. A lot of
numerology...
