Would this be halal or kosher?
The organ has been genetically modified from what
a natural pig organ would be like.
If not, would it be difficult to grow organs
in some other animal?
Further why not use gorillas or another animal
that to me would seem closet to human?
- tokai 5y agoIt would be halal if it wasn't from a pig I think. https://www.islamweb.net/en/fatwa/82240/organ-transplantation https://www.islamweb.net/en/fatwa/82240/organ-transplantatio... But it might actually be kosher. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/10618731/ https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/10618731/
- BizarroLand 5y agoI think the issue with Kosher is null if it involves saving a life, right? If you're Orthodox Jewish and starving to death you would not be committing a sin to eat pork sausage. Of course, that's what your link says, so my addition is null, but still. There is some common sense in the Jewish faith.
