This weeks Shabbos thread

Hi All,

As is our tradition, this is our usual Friday pre-Shabbos thread, which is an open forum to share anything you want to, or to raise issues that you would at the Shabbat table. We do of course continue to pray for the boys, via the Psalms and the special prayer that the Rabbis have issues for us to use (see Esther's post below &Ephraim Mirvis's sermon ). We will also be discussing this week's Torah portion (Numbers 16 to 18) and in my house we are studying Ecclesiastes, which for some reason the favourite book, alongside Job of my best friend, who despite being an agnostic/atheist, says the Bible is his favourite work of fiction - very funny isn't it! Well I was an atheist once, worse than the Hitch when it came to it. We''ll also be doing our pre-Shabbat BBQ (very hot outside) and drinks, with some kosher sausages, burgers etc & for tonight's meal I am doing  some of my traditional Sephardi Tapas foods, which will include fish, salad & chicken ( meat and two veg, I guess!).

But over to you guys, this is your thread,

Shabbat Shalom!

    I've got a question, would dinosaurs be Kosher to eat ?

  2. No I don't see that it would be. Only mammals that chew cud and have cloven hoof are kosher and only if slaughtered according to laws of kashrut. I think dinosaurs are more closely related to birds anyway, so all of this is moot..I think that they're more like the raptor and scavenging birds..and some are rather reptillian like the alligator..all not kosher. Only NON predatory birds are kosher.

  3. Ah, happy days of childhood! The dinobots, I think were the best ones, so I can agree with you on that score. Although I was far too old to be interested in them, why the came out.
