Food preparation Laws

[Sabian]

I understand that some here question clean and unclean food Laws.
And some, for some reason believe it's OK to eat anything.
But how about how the food is prepared ?
What do you think about that?
For an example of breaking those Laws, many people
think RAW fresh Monkey brains to be great.
Clearly this is against the Law of TORAH for many reasons.
Do you concider craking open a live monkey's Skull
and eating ,OK?

If not , why?
Does it have anything to do with other Law's contained in TORAH?
If so, WHY?

I know this is to the extreme but the example I used, I used because it breaks more then one TORAH LAW.

Do you concider craking open a live monkey's Skull
and eating ,OK?

No.

1) Monkey is not Kosher meat.
2) We are not to eat blood, so eating raw meat is strictly prohibited.
3) Halachically speaking, one is to respect the life of the animal and show mercy. I have seen the Indian practice of whacking a live monkey in a cage (just big enough for it's body with it's head sticking out) with a mallet and eating the brains from the monkey does not show mercy or respect.

In every way the above example is wrong according to Judaism.

Shalom,
Yafet.

But how about how the food is prepared ? What do you think about that?
Yes, if one adheres to Torah then preparation method is also G-d ordained. And the Fathers of Wisdom have given us clarification where scripture tells us what but not how.

Do you concider craking open a live monkey's Skull and eating ,OK?
Gee, Thanks - here I am with a slightly queazy stomach from fasting and you present THIS picture - now I more fully afflicted! Todah!!

If not , why?
Does it have anything to do with other Law's contained in TORAH?
If so, WHY?
DUH! If you can't take the young and the mother at the same time for compassion's sake - and you can't eat the limb of a live animal - and you can't eat blood - how much more not the brains of a living creature! Kol v'khomer!

I am sure there a a couple dozen more mitzvot such an action violates!
