Kosher and Halal slaughter banned in Denmark. Way to go?

Danish government says animal rights beat religious beliefs.

I should explain that Jews and Muslims slaughter their animals by bleeding them to death without pre-stunning. In my view the Danish government has bravely banned this practice.

Killing an animal is killing an animal. Some people choose to do it differently than others.
To me, eating animal flesh is gross. Eating a body is disgusting.

So do you eat fish?

I have a hard time eating anything that has a pulse or intestinal tracts for that matter. It is not just philosophy.

Yep, stunning and killing with a mechanical bolt through the brain sounds more humane to me.

Well, for those who actually have religious faith of one sort or another, this might be debatable; for others, it seems a moot point. Being a confirmed carnivore, I'd be hoping Ferdinand, Chicken Little, and Porky would be imported; then, again, imported meat likely carries a prohibitive price tag.

they got a tu from me,if you have to kill an animal,,the way you kill it tells you something about the person doing the killing,,if you kill in a humane way it shows you have heart,,muslims kill animals and humans the same way,without a heart..>>>>>>>><<<<<<<<..

Not quite what i meant Roy.. There are non muslim murderers and there are muslim murderers,they are close to the same,when muslims kill the animals they are gonna eat,they torture the animal and bleed them to death with no compassion whatsoever for the animal,, if you cannot have compassion for an animal,how much compassion are you gonna give a human..

Hey Terry,what do you think of this Adam Goodes scandal? I wish I was there the day he did that war dance.I would have stood up & applauded.I think it was wonderful & there should be more of it.What an Aussie & what a player of our national game? Go for it Goodsey.

G.Day Terry, i,m curious too, what are your thoughts regarding the controversy concerning Adam Goodes the hatred towards him and the booing, it seems to be getting out of hand, at least he has a
'all' AFL Captains supporting him.

@TOM and @Bulletman,,Guys i am not an AFL man,but i am a sportsman,i do not agree with sledgeing in cricket or booing in any sport,however if a fan does not like a player or the way he plays or a referee or umpire decision,he has the right to boo,it is up to the fans moral belief,,but to call it racial is drawing a long bow,,however i myself do not like Goodes and i do not believe he should have been made Australian of the Year,but that is me...Goodes took the war to the fans when he took a so called aboriginal war dance to the fans and threw an imagined spear at the fans,lets keep this in context,there are 70 odd aboriginal players in AFL,,but it is only Goodes that gets booed,,,that is not racial any more than when Wally Lewis got booed every time he took the field in sydney in NRL..As some of the commentators and ex players are saying ,"it is time for Adam Goodes to grow up.'' i am part aboriginal,and i do not think he is helping the aboriginal cause..anyway Tom and Bullet,that is my opinion and we all have one..Always nice talking guys..>>>>>>><<<<<<<..

Well said Terry, you took the words right out of my mouth, i did not want to say it as it may be construed as being Racial. :)
