Those ritual slaughters sound like they cause a lot of unnecessary suffering. The animal is fully conscious while its throat is slit and then it bleeds to death. Halal slaughtering process

Sounds like the Halal slaughtering process is the same one they use on Infidels.

And where are the nekkid PETA girls protesting this one? (Of course, even if they DID show up, they'd have signs like "I'd rather wear a burkha than fur.")

Great read.

Obscene process.

"Thus, the slaugther itself is preceded by the words "In the name of God, God is the Greatest... The common phrase...'In the name of God the Beneficent the Merciful' is not used here, because the act is one of subduement, not of mercy. Rather, the words Allahu Akbar (God is the Greatest) are used. This is to reiterate that the animal was only subdued for consumption by God's divine design and command...It is also common for the words "Praise be upon Him who has made you suitable for slaughter"...to be spoken immediately before slaughter..."
