tails.faith I HATE SHARK ↗

Kosher? Halal? Licit?

Is it allowed?

We asked the scriptures. The short answer is yes, mostly, with footnotes, and each tradition gets a page of its own so nobody’s footnotes get mixed up.

The rest

And briefly.

Shinto
Inari’s messengers are foxes, and stone foxes guard her shrines all over Japan. The fox tail →
Jainism
Ahimsa, harm to no living thing: our fur is vegan. Digambara monks wear nothing at all, so not a tail either.
Sikhism
Kesh, uncut hair, is one of the five Ks. Our fur is all synthetic, and we will never ask for a lock of yours.
Rastafari
The Lion of Judah, and an ital diet: everything we make is vegan.
Atheism
Nobody is watching. Except the cat. The cat tail →

Written with real sources and a straight face, by a shop, not a scholar.

The shop is I HATE SHARK, which makes a fox tail, a bunny tail and a cat tail, and wrote all of this to find out whether you may wear one. For a ruling that binds you, ask your rabbi, priest, imam, pandit, teacher or pastor. We did not ask ours.
