Hindu paintballers be like

[-] NikkiDimes@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

Yeah wait, can we not make paintballs with...no animal parts?

[-] Kolanaki@pawb.social 5 points 1 month ago

Pretty sure it's jist the shell the paint is in that uses animal parts, and glycerine can be made from plants too. 🤷‍♂️

[-] redundantgrouch@sh.itjust.works 14 points 1 month ago

You can definitely get Glycerine from a Bush.

I’m guessing the shell is made from gelatin or something? Which is made from animal bones. I can’t think of what else would be made from animal.

I know nothing about paintball, but I feel like there has to be vegan paintballs.

It was just medieval food safety to not eat pork in hot countries. They really need to update their software.

[-] Hapankaali@lemmy.world 8 points 1 month ago

The origin of Abrahamic dietary laws is not certain. There is no obvious benefit in terms of hygiene, also not in ancient times (they long predate "medieval" times). Keep in mind that poultry carries a significant risk of salmonella poisoning.

It has been suggested that the origin might have simply been that pigs are viewed as unclean due to their own diet including carrion. Another speculated reason is that rulers might have wanted to promote poultry due to it being a more economical way of raising livestock.

[-] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago

i have a specific unusual food allergy. I always presumed abraham or ishmael or jacob or moses or one of them mythical folk had a food allergy against pigs and said "you know what, if i started a religion about not eating pigs maybe i wouldn't get the runs every time i went out to eat"

Could also just be an exaggerated case of "ew, poor people food", since pigs will eat damn near anything.

I guess chickens are similarly omnivorous and take up less space though (plus, eggs). And are arguably easier to transport and defend (a rooster can fuck you up)

[-] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 1 points 1 month ago

isnt mostly pork tapeworm they worry about.

[-] AllNewTypeFace@leminal.space 1 points 1 month ago

There was also the result of drawing a sharp line between the in-group and everyone else. If we have strict dietary laws but the people on the other side of the hill don’t share them, then it follows that they’re unspeakable barbarians, and that we should not trade or cooperate with them, let alone intermarry, and indeed, it’s acceptable to kill them and take their stuff, as surely such a barbarous people would do the same to us.

So you don't need them to be hallal if you just don't get hit.

[-] ivanafterall@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

Presumably they need to be able to touch their own balls?

Someone needs to explain to me why there’s ANY animal product in a paintball in the first place.

[-] new_guy@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

Paintballs are made of gelatin. Gelatin is often just collagen and collagen is basically connective tissue.

[-] kayzeekayzee@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 1 month ago

Fun fact! This is why E Ink displays use pig products!

[-] AllNewTypeFace@leminal.space 2 points 1 month ago

Is there a Halal Kindle for the Islamic world?
