Frequently at lunch he would order Fresh Ham or a bacon and sausage omelet. I would always chide him with "mom ain't going to like that." To which he'd reply "tough shit."
But he did consider himself jewish.
Good on him. I can't really relate except for when I was Catholic and doing the whole "no meat on Friday during Lent" thing. I didn't like it then and thought it was pretty silly, especially since fish was A-OK but eating a cow, chicken, or pig was out. I think any religion prohibiting eating certain foods is just plain ridiculous.
Christian apologetics is the art of rolling a dog turd in sugar and selling it as a donut.
