Actually, a lot of areas won't eat pig because pig is considered filthy. Unclean. It's a "dirty" animal.

Also, in Islam I believe it is, they won't eat cow. Why they don't eat cow isn't because of "smart" creatures or anything of that sort. It's because for whatever reason they believe the cow is a holy animal.

Edit: my apologies. Indians don't eat beef. I don't know why I was thinking Muslims. I know better. I've been miserably sick for over a week so my mind was only half right.

Why do you assume it's trying to hurt you? Maybe it just wants a friend because no one has noticed it before. Also, if it's only showing up on paper, that indicates it is unable to manifest itself physically. You'll be fine either way

Your uncle was absolutely correct in saying that pigs are very intelligent animals and don't deserve to be eaten....but the muslim thing is a bit incorrect.

In Indian Hindu culture pigs are considered demigods ( Varaha : Form of Lord Vishnu ) hence we do not eat them...this is a way of respecting the animal and it's intelligence whereas in Islam it's allowed to kill a pig and leave its body to rot away.
