Current Events > For those wondering, all kosher food are halal, but not all halal food is kosher

(+) Yeah! (+)

Thanks, I'll keep that in mind if I ever decide to look up what those are and why it matters.

Well when you're in new York city and want to get hot dogs, you should look for the ones marked kosher dogs as you'll know you can eat them because they'll be halal so you won't have to worry about that

That statement is mostly true.

Doesnt halal just mean animals are killed more cruelly? Like cows have throats cut and are left to bleed out in pain

I've heard the argument that being hung upside down makes them die "instantly" when they cut the artery, but those bodies keep wriggling for a good while. Could argue the brain is already out cold and it's just muscle spasms, but no matter how you slice it, the knockout looks a lot more peaceful.

im not an expert on cow biology but id think that if you cut their throat theyd suffocate. not sure sure if hanging them upside down changes much unless it makes them pass out or something. id assume the hanging upside down bit is to make it so the blood flows out easier more than anything

I don't particularly see Halal slaughtering as more cruel than slaughtering in general. The "suffers more" is just nit picking. So a cow bleeds to death over 30 seconds instead getting killed first by a kinetic rod and then drained of blood. Big deal. If you have that much of a problem with it you probably shouldn't be eating meat.

If bleeding to death is no big deal, then you got no problems with IDF preventing medics from trying to save kids bleeding to death, right?

Imagine being this racist.
People has been killing animals and bleed the blood out to preserve meat quality even before Islam created.

The gap between instant blackout and 30 seconds of suffering before death is enormous, if you give a shit about suffering. If you see the difference between an animal basically being "turned off" and an animal being strung up and bled out in a panic as nitpicking... I dunno, that seems wrong-headed to me.

Obviously there are endless facets of animal farming and slaughter that can be discussed, and imo they're worth being discussed. Dismissing such concerns as "death is death is death and the details don't matter" is disconcerting.

What the fuck does slaughtering an animal for meat have to do with war medics.

I'm curious how you think objections to halal and/or kosher slaughter practices are so racist that it's hard to imagine. I also have objections to tossing live animals into a cooking vessel, or flaying a live frog to serve its still-beating heart. Would you accuse me of being racist for that?

Rika

Rika is specifically singling out Halal, when Kosher did the same method.
Surely you've been here long enough to see how problematic poster he is

Nope, less cruelly. Animals are killed away from the general population (so others don't see it and get scared), and in a single cut to the throat instead of beating them to death

This is the stupidest post Ive read today and Ive seen 3 of those topics where enlightened centrists try to justify why trump is good for Palestine

You should read your own posts

I'd say calling animal slaughtering a race to be a really stupid post.

Alcoholic beverages are pretty much never halal, but they can be kosher.

Pretty much? When would they ever be halal? (Not meaning to sound rude; genuinely asking.)

Racists always never realized being a racist.
It's obvious he's singling out Halal, which directly means Islam.

What, you gonna use the tired excuse of "Islam is not a race?"

So if an objectionable practice is limited to a race, you can't critique it or you're racist?

Facts are excuses now?

Except it doesn't.
Halal slaughter is almost exactly the same with kosher slaughter, with small difference that Halal requires praying for the the animal.
And even then, the practice of bleeding the animal is already practiced by the hunters for millenium.

Say it you coward, i dare you to use the excuse that's been used by racists for ages.
Say "Islam is not a race, so I'm not racist"

The mask is slipping a bit there, Rika...

Remember that eating certain foods isn't a sin because we poop it out.

Praise Jesus for ridding us of those silly food restrictions.

It was really just a food safety issue back then which doesn't apply today. People only get sick now from improper handling.
