I think this is why your view is different from others. People see a clear difference that you don't. As I said before, the fact that standard practices come from qualified vet input clearly puts the standard form at a more humane level. Those are facts. If you want to disagree with qualified people, that's fine, but your opinion isn't going to carry much weight.

I think it's stupid to think that slitting an animals throat and hanging it upside down to drain it's blood is suddenly humane just because it's brain has been fried beforehand. It's still a brutal and awful way to die. The only difference between the two methods is that the stun method allows people to delude themselves into thinking they're being kind. Both methods are inhumane as ****. |

All we're saying is that one if far more humane. |

I love meat and I'd rather face facts when it comes to where it comes from. Both methods are far from humane and i don't care what INDUSTRY regulators have to say. I'd rather own the fact that neither method is ideal. Last edited by Tom4784; 03-05-2016 at 06:07 PM. |

I understand it perfectly, I just refuse to convince myself that one method is right and the other wrong when they're both terrible. I'd rather face reality. |

As a veggie, I've always wondered if it tasted different from non-halal meat.

If the old adage about how meat tastes differently according to the stress of the animal is true then I'm guessing there's not much difference between the two methods. |

But if given an option between one that lessens the suffering of the animal and one that doesn't then a lot of people will choose the former as the "preferred" option. Last edited by Marsh.; 03-05-2016 at 06:36 PM. |

I'm not saying everyone should go veggie... In my opinion we should embrace the fact that we are vicious omnivores and chow down on those tasty tasty cows and pigs. But for those who can't embrace that... Srsly... They should just go veggie... Instead of deluding themselves into believing that they only eat the HAPPY cows who lived fulfilling lives and slipped away peacefully with little cow smiles on their cow faces . No. Your hamburger was born and bred to die, and it died horribly to fill your belly. Sad story. Sad, delicious, tender, juicey steaky story. I'm so hungry Last edited by Toy Soldier; 03-05-2016 at 10:03 PM. |

Well this thread was a headache and a half to read through, pretty much agree with Dezzy. All these people thinking that a certain way of killing is humane, I'd like to see you go to a slaugther house and still call it humane.

It is true that apparently a badly slaughtered animal tastes bad due it releasing adrenaline into its body but that doesnt happen with the Halal method of slaughter. I think most peoples objections with Halal slaughter are just a combination of religious/racial predudice and ignorance. |

Found this online:
This is a statement by the animal welfare group Royals Society for Prevention of Cruelty to Animals based on reseach by Farm Animal Welfare Committee (FAWC) It presents a lot of the research that animals do indeed feel significant pain for as long as two minutes. "Our conclusions ... are that such an injury will result in significant pain and distress ... before insensibility supervenes. Fawc is in agreement with the prevailing scientific consensus that slaughter without pre-stunning causes pain and distress. On the basis that this is avoidable and in the interests of welfare, Fawc concludes that all animals should be pre-stunned before slaughter." As such, it recommends that all animals are stunned before having their throat cut. These are not anti-religious organisations or cranks, but very mainstream, respectable animal welfare bodies, so worth taking seriously and engaging with the points they make. Interestingly, in UK the Muslim organisation does not see a problem with this: The Shechita Council, which oversees kosher meat, was contacted but did not supply a comment. Massood Khawaja, president of the Halal Food Authority, insisted that its animals were stunned. "The Koran says use your brain, ponder about things and that's what we are doing," he said. "It's a question of animal welfare." tl;dr: "Fawc is in agreement with the prevailing scientific consensus that slaughter without pre-stunning causes pain and distress." That's all anyone is saying!
