I read about an interesting topic. The topic of Bible scientific foreknowledge. I thought I would share it.

With that being said, here is the article:

From the website (Including bad grammar):

Heart disease is a leading killer in nations which practice Western nations despite the fact that these nations are quite medically advanced. Dr. Paul Dudley White, the heart specialist who treated President Eisenhower while he was in the White House, once quoted the Leviticus verse, "Speak to the children of Israel, saying:

Here's another one on advanced medical knowledge, sanitary practices and more.

Maybe there's a reason that heart disease isn't a big killer in countries wher goat and sheep meat are common.

I'd be willing to bet that it has more to do with the fact that in less developed countries people tend to die of disease or malnutrition or somesuch long before the negative effects of eating fat has caused any serious problems with their heart.

The admonishment against pork and certain other foods given in leviticus is not one relating to a health issue, but rather a "ceremonial law", or symbol, regarding "clean" and "unclean" foods. We have at least two passages in the Bible that prove that God made ALL things GOOD to be eaten

I think you need to do more Bible exegesis before you raise criticism. The word commonly translated ox can mean more than one animal including cows. Neverless, I removed that part as I think the data regarding fat and disease has not had enough research as of now.

As far you saying, "So much for Bible scientific foreknowledge" think you are guilty of using the exclusion fallacy and attacking a strawman (see: http://www.datanation.com/fallacies/exclus.htm ). There was plenty of evidence showing the Bible has scientific foreknowledge even without the additions I recently made.
