3. I think it is more than being empty and more than caring about what someone eats...

remember the woman who was beaten, stoned, and burned to death in Kabal bec. it was RUMORED she had burned a Koran.
It turned out she hadn't burned a Koran.
She was martyed and 100's or thousands came out to her funeral.
she is forgiven.
But what if she HAD burned a Koran?
Would this merit her punishment?

No one - even the women who demanded that she be "rehabilitated" and remembered for being a good woman - no one said in the BBC program I saw last nite, that it is immaterial whether or not she burned a Koran--
that the point is the way this mob behaved.

and I would say the same thing about this case of the cow or goat.
