Oxford University Press said all books must take into consideration other cultures if they hope to sell copies in countries across the world. As a result, the academic publisher has issued guidance advising writers to avoid mentioning pigs or "anything else which could be perceived as pork" so as not to offend Muslim or Jewish people.
The Oxford edition of the Holy Bible might need to be dropped from their list of works, too. Odd, isn't it, that the Old Testament [aka the Jewish Bible] contains numerous references to pigs and swine and yet nary a Jew in history has complained? It makes me think that it's the other religion mentioned that Oxford is nervous about. Je suis Charlie, my eye.
