It's not what goes into our mouths that makes us unclean, but what comes out of it.
This is true in the spiritual sense, but salmonella will still ruin your day...!

Please tell us what nutritionist recommend humans to eat?

So humans could or should eat what rats eat?
Do rats get leaky gut ?

Rats bread after there kind.
There Still no proof we evolved from animals.

what does any of this have to do with common descent? Humans are animals by the way . The bibles food recommendations are based on Jewish religious traditions which other cultures don’t happen to follow ,including most Christians . Shellfish , insects and other Arthropoda like crab and lobster, rabbit, snake, ostrich rabbit jand pork are all good to eat. You can’t even get lamb in the stores where I live never mind goat or mutton and I live in nyc .

. Antibiotics saved my life when I was a baby . Since humans are animals I guess antibiotics treated me well.
Evolution is responsible for antibiotics. Early antibiotics came from fungi for example penicillin from a Penicillium fungus . Dr Fleming noticed that it killed bacteria around it . Either he or someone else came up with the idea that it might work to kill bacteria in animals ( including humans) because we are closely related to fungi. They only did the experiment because animals are closely related to fungi . If separate creation were true that experiment wouldn’t have made sense.

Vaccines and evolution
The original vaccine against smallpox during the 18th century was a lucky guess. Modern live vaccines use natural selection to get a weak strain that won’t csuse disease. In other words, they used natural selection to get All 3 versions of polio vaccine . Thank evolution that polio 2 is now extinct

No. I am agreeing with @Semper-Fi that the Bible has been shown to have "scooped" science, and that we should not wait for science to "catch up" before we consider these matters. (Gentiles still have no spiritual mandate to do so, however.)

Science proved there was a point--back then. And then went beyond what they had the technology to understand--back then.

The physical point has been overridden: Just cook it thoroughly. Cutting it thin, salting it, and frying it is awesome and fully resolves the physical uncleanness issue. The disease aspect can be overcome. That's no longer a reason. Any further reason would have to be spiritual.

And what scientific reason makes rabbit dangerous? Not long ago in America, rabbit was the primary meat dish--cheaper than chicken. In fact, when Herbert Hoover promised "a chicken in every pot," it meant "instead of rabbit."

Why is this so hard to understand for some? If it comes out of His mouth, it is Law.
But according to Paul, those aspects of Judaism are not a pre-requisite for surrendering to Jesus.

Clean/unclean is pre-Jew...and nobody said it was a salvific issue...we're talking the best available, Creator-given diet for the human body.

The instructions given in Leviticus 11 are not “Jewish religious traditions”.

Who is greater: Paul of the Most High God.

Paul is not saying what you think he is saying, because Paul would not contradict the Most High God.

The Most High God has NEVER told any of us who want to be His children that we can disobey any of His Laws He has set up.

It has never been a salvation issue, it is simply a "being a child of a good parent" issue. What parent would encourage their younger children that they could break the rules because their Older Brother followed them perfectly?

And yet, the parent doesn't stop loving their child because they are disobedient; they pity where they will end up because of their disobedience.

In Galatians 5:12, Paul said that those who prescribe [male] circumcision as a spiritual requirement should go all the way and mutilate themselves! It is the same Law.

(And I am a proponent of prophylactic male circumcision.)

Where did God reject the “unclean meat list” that He gave to His children?
Acts 15, which lists the requirements that are to be laid on Gentile believers, and Peter's vision before meeting Cornelius.

You NEVER answer the question.

Who is greater: the Most High God or Paul?
