This is great! A pig's heart has been transplanted into a man in Baltimore.

Still working after three days. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-59944889

Jews and muslins need not apply, and greenmunists will avoid it because the pig had been genetically modified.

I don't think a religious base is necessary for not wanting one of those. I opted for a mechanical valve myself. Noisy, but eliminates the "ick" factor.

Ever watch Mythbusters? Pigs have been used as human analogs in all sorts of tests for years, because they're about the same size and readily available.

And unlike humans, there's no problem about the whole "live donor" business that only China has managed to get around so far.

But I'm sure PETA will have a cry about it.

It'll be the greatest advancement in cardiac medicine since Christian Barnard if it works.

Yeah. The Atheist has been doing that for a long time. I think it's just habit now.

No, it's deliberate. I don't even believe it's bigotry to detest misogynist filth who use their pedophile prophet as a means of justifying the atrocities they perpetrate on women.

When they start treating women as people, I'll gladly stop abusing them.

Religion of peace my arse.

I'm thinking that The Atheist didn't look too closely into this project.

“This is the culmination of years of highly complicated research to hone this technique in animals with survival times that have reached beyond nine months,” explains Muhammad Mohiuddin, from the Cardiac Xenotransplantation Program at the University of Maryland School of Medicine. “The FDA used our data and data on the experimental pig to authorize the transplant in an end-stage heart disease patient who had no other treatment options. The successful procedure provided valuable information to help the medical community improve this potentially life-saving method in future patients.”​
 
Sometimes, committing to a comedy bit is helpful to the delivery. The "muslin" thing isn't working; you can see right through it.

Oh look, Muslims are hailing the breakthrough...

I disagree - you don't appear to be thinking at all. You've assumed that because someone has a Pakistani name that they are muslin.

Being muslin isn't like being Jewish.

And yet Dr. Mohiuddin is a practising Muslim......
:rolleyes:
 
I'm curious now. When insulin was harvested from pigs, was it refused by Kosher/Halal people in any significant numbers?

And while he's overcome his prophet's rules, I'm going to lay any odds the enormous majority of islamic leaders will dispute it, or more likely, call him a blasphemer or apostate.
 
And I'll win that bet, easy.

It’s highly unlikely that the wider Muslim community will eagerly accept the use of pig organs for human transplant, even if someone’s life is at stake.

Last month, just days after New York University surgeons announced their kidney experiment, scholars at the famed Al-Azhar University condemned it, arguing the use of pig organs is prohibited.

Dr Mohiuddin himself says:

“Being a Muslim, we might have a problem with pig. But for the rest of the world, it’s already consumed as food.”

And yet somehow their anti-pig heart reaction will still be more reasonable and justified than your anti-muslim posturing.

Bollocks.

Why is anti-muslin sentiment unreasonable?

Turkey used to be hailed as the example of "moderate" islamic culture. Erdogan soon kicked that to touch.

They are bigots who persecute gays, women and any fringe of society that doesn't conform to idiotic rules written down by a pedophile 1400 years ago.

Let's have a look at some islamic-ruled countries, shall we?

The top ten countries by percentage OF mulsins are:


Maldives - 100%)
Mauritania - 99.9%
Somalia - 99.8% (tie)
Tunisia - 99.8% (tie)
Afghanistan - 99.7% (tie)
Algeria - 99.7% (tie)
Iran - 99.4%
Yemen - 99.2%
Morocco - 99%
Niger - 98.3%

Go visit one and tell them you're a poofter, have beer in your room, and that your sister's going to wear a Brazillian bikini to the beach. If they let you out of jail alive, get back to me.

Gotta say it's the first time you've surprised me, or maybe you're trying to ingratiate yourself with someone. Support for muslins has always been from the left as I've seen it, and the other who don't like it are hard left. I rarely see a capital C conservatives crying about muslins being abused.
 
I'm not even going to mention the most-revolting things of all - female genital mutilation and dishonour killings.

I know neither is exclusively muslin nor prescribed by the majority of the religion, but the vast number of both are done in the name of the mythical Allah-fairy.
