| Anyone with a modicum of physiological knowledge understands that at the moment that both jugular veins and carotid arteries are cut, there can be no consciousness because there is no blood pressure within the brain.To prove that point, all one need do is stand up rapidly after relaxing on a hot day. One will immediately find one\'s self resisting blacking out. Drain blood from the brain and there is an immediate absence of consciousness. |

| Animals have no worth... no feelings... Isn\'t that what the Talmud also preaches about non-Jews??
Hence we are expendable for the Jews\' ambitions... easy to send us to the slaughter as well... without padded helmets as in Iraq...

| Anyone who has witnessed pre-stunning would know it\'s far from painless, and there is a significant failure rate!! Furthermore, there is a German study that scientifically proves competent ritual slaughter is the most humane! The whole issue is simply an attack on the Jews. No ifs, no buts. |
| Stunning permitted by Islamic law! |

| Every single animal in New Zealand is pre-stunned AND slaughtered according to Islamic ritual, because the vast majority of NZ\'s meat exports go to Islamic countries. FACT. This constant tying of the issue to both Muslim and Jewish law is a BIG LIE! Only one group is targeted by this and that is Jews! Every news outlet is guilty of this, and they are either doing it deliberately, for whatever \'reason\', or because they have failed to do their research. |

| Mary: Slaughter for eating is not a sin offering. You are thinking of Temple slaughter. And if a man you call Jesus existed, was the messiah and will return as such, the Torah does not signify the possibility of the messiah coming, not fulfilling what the Torah says he will, and then returning later to fulfil what he did not do the first time. Furthermore, Christians telling Jews what the Torah says and deliberately mistranslating verses to fit their theology/Christology and misinterpreting others is not a sign of the truth. According to the Christian scriptures, Jesus said he came to bring the sword. Christian theologians argue that as swords were double-edged this means he came to divide, to set people against each other. But as Jewish scholars have said, it is easy to divide, but hard to unite. Two-thousand years after the alleged death of Jesus, what we know is that he certainly succeeded in bringing the sword. Whatever meaning was meant, he has achieved both. He certainly achieved division. People are set against each other in his name. And he certainly brought the sword in a more literal sense. There has been two-thousand years of bloodshed in his name. If the messiah has two lifetimes to achieve what is stated in the Torah, then the Lubavitcher Rebbe seems a far better candidate from a Torah/Jewish perspective. It also seems clear that the dawn of the messianic age is now. Read the scriptures, being conscious of your biases, and you will see that Christianity is problematic. I have studied Christian theology at degree-level alongside priests in training and contemporary mainstream Christian scholarship seriously undermines Christian doctrine, not least by thoroughly undermining the Gospel of John, and all the words therein attributed to Jesus. There are very good reasons most Jews did not and will not embrace Christianity. The pagan concepts of Christianity were nothing new and a ridiculous then as now. Sorry if you find it offensive to be told the facts, but you Christians have no problems telling Jews how stupid and wicked they are for taking the Torah as G-d\'s unchangeable word, as it says therein, and refusing to believe that G-d is a covenant-breaker, etc, or relentlessly punishing us for refusing to canonize the writings of apostates and worship other than the ONE G-d, a pagan human sacrifice against the lessons of the Torah no less. We await the true messiah. In the meantime, Israelites/Jews are instructed to live a Torah life and Gentiles are instructed to live according to the Noahide laws. Religion, as understood today, is a destructive man-made construct. |

| According to the Old Testament, ritual slaughter was to cover the sins of the people..
That was done away with when Jesus Christ died on the cross for our sins once and for all..some people don\'t believe that Jesus Christ is the Messiah but He is and some day Israel will mourn the fact that they did not accept Jesus Christ as the Messiah.. |
