From the Paper:

"The main day of worship is Saturday for the Jews, Sunday for the Christians and Friday for the Muslims. Also the Jews have some rules about the food in their diet called kosher. For example they don't eat pork and certain seafood, they separate meat from dairy and they have special methods for killing the animals for the meat, which implies less pain when they are slaughtered. Christians don't have a special diet, but before some holidays they don't eat any meat or dairy. The Muslims don't eat pork and don't drink alcohol and other meat is prepared by the halal method which is similar to the kosher (allows only some types of food to be eaten)."
