I know nothing about paintball, but I feel like there has to be vegan paintballs.

It was just medieval food safety to not eat pork in hot countries. They really need to update their software.

The origin of Abrahamic dietary laws is not certain. There is no obvious benefit in terms of hygiene, also not in ancient times (they long predate “medieval” times). Keep in mind that poultry carries a significant risk of salmonella poisoning.
It has been suggested that the origin might have simply been that pigs are viewed as unclean due to their own diet including carrion. Another speculated reason is that rulers might have wanted to promote poultry due to it being a more economical way of raising livestock.

i have a specific unusual food allergy. I always presumed abraham or ishmael or jacob or moses or one of them mythical folk had a food allergy against pigs and said “you know what, if i started a religion about not eating pigs maybe i wouldn’t get the runs every time i went out to eat”

Maybe they just thought pigs are too cute to eat.

I thought it was due to the parasites, worms?, that pork gets in hot arid countries which is why both the Jews and Muslims don’t eat it

Could also just be an exaggerated case of “ew, poor people food”, since pigs will eat damn near anything.
I guess chickens are similar and take up less space though (plus, eggs). And are arguably easier to transport and defend (a rooster can fuck you up)

Yeah. Religion is well-known for its acceptance of logic 😆
Bullerfar@lemmy.world 5 hours ago
It’s religion, not science. Unfortunately, logic isn’t a requirement.

Someone needs to explain to me why there’s ANY animal product in a paintball in the first place.

Paintballs are made of gelatin. Gelatin is often just collagen and collagen is basically connective tissue.

Fun fact! This is why E Ink displays use pig products!

I only did paintball once, and that place didn’t use gelatin balls, I think they were made of a thin bioplastic film (corn stuff) filled with ink

Are they also required to be… green?
RickyRigatoni@piefed.social 5 hours ago
Green is the color of Islam because it is the religion of peas.
