Very interesting! I think it's fascinating that the further we go from the laws in the - well, the holy books of the Abrahamic religions, for lack of a better word (as many of the laws are the same in all the holy books), the worse society becomes... who cares how old the rules are, they're here for our benefit and they work!
Just a quick question -
Does this mean that many rabbis think that it's OK to eat any sort of meat, because it can be refrigerated now? As I understand it, many of the food laws were to prevent nasty illnesses because of rotting food. Not to mean any disrespect, just that do we throw out laws just because of new technologies and things? (I know I really shouldn't ask that question, coming from an Anglican background and knowing the rubbish some of our leaders come out with.)Today many rabbi's hold that the situation is different because of the existence of formula etc.
