Look at the last sentence of the second article: it says all there is to say about Kilayim! We don't - or at least until now we didn't - understand the deep reasons for these laws; but when we see the evil perpetrated with Kilayim by arrogant enemies of God - Dor Haflagah - who like the generation of the Tower of Babel want to reach the Heavens and compete with the Master of the Universe - , all of a sudden it all makes sense. Hashem is perfect, and He knew even before Creation what forbidden mixtures would lead to. Now we can see it with our own eyes.
"Food" for thought.

ReplyDeleteYes. Also remember that "creating new species" goes at least as far back as the mule (horse + donkey. The product of that one is not fertile...that should have been a clue. Or maybe that was the point, for the PTB...?).
