I’m utterly against animal sacrifice. Don’t care which books say it should happen or that God wants it.

Psalm 51:16-19,

For thou hast no delight in sacrifice;
were I to give a burnt offering, thou wouldst not be pleased.
The sacrifice acceptable to God is a broken spirit;
a broken and contrite heart, O God, thou wilt not despise.
Do good to Zion in thy good pleasure;
rebuild the walls of Jerusalem,
then wilt thou delight in right sacrifices,
in burnt offerings and whole burnt offerings;
then bulls will be offered on thy altar.

Of course this is from the Old Testament. Christ’s death on the cross was the final sacrifice. All other sacrifices are worthless symbols - and IMHO would be sacrifices to a false god, and loathsome to God.

No need for animal sacrifice. Jesus was the sacrifice.

You don't care what G-d wants. What an attitude.

Are you a vegetarian, Veto! ?
