Yes you have point regarding the prohibition of swine, there is a verse that I totally forgot about when I mentioned pigs:
Quote:Sura 6, The Quran:
Sahih International
(145) Say, "I do not find within that which was revealed to me [anything] forbidden to one who would eat it unless it be a dead animal or blood spilled out or the flesh of swine - for indeed, it is impure - or it be [that slaughtered in] disobedience, dedicated to other than Allah . But whoever is forced [by necessity], neither desiring [it] nor transgressing [its limit], then indeed, your Lord is Forgiving and Merciful."
Adding more to my comment: the reason pig flesh is impure, is the same reason human flesh is impure too; notice that according to Islamic law human flesh is as impure as swine; human flesh is even more impure: it's wrong to kill a creature with such a level of consciousness either human or animal.
