Why is halal legal?

[Violet]

What is necessary is what is vital to the goal, in this case the death of the animal. Death does not have to be painful and can be swift. Prolonging death causes more suffering which is unnecessary to the goal.

If the goal is only death, then the goal does not involve the speed at which this arrives. It is not required that the death be painless and it can be slow. Prolonging death and bleeding the creature out improves the quality of the meat. Especially if it is frozen in ice-saltwater immediately after it is slain to not only delay the onset of rigor mortis: but also to soften it.

Okay, in that case I'll take a mental note to remember that if I ever see you on fire, to just let you burn because you're enjoying yourself.

I would be. I'd be laughing so hard at catching myself on fire as I put it out

It would be a mistake to mistake appreciation for enjoyment. And I like how pain informs me of what not to strain further... much safer than continuing to damage a body part until it needs to be removed entirely.

Not true. The fighters in UFC have complete control over whether or not they want to endure the violence. At any time beforehand they can withdraw from the match, or if the pain becomes too much during they can concede. They do it, not just because it is what they do, but it is what they want to do, which is why comparing sport fighting to halal fails.

Control is an illusion. They have no more control than you or I. There are no choices: everything is already determined. The journey's end is set from it's beginning.

If we cease to be concerned with acts simply because they are in the past, we are allowing them to happen in the future, which is the real issue.

If we are concerned with the future: we will react in the present. Should you have a problem with Halal meat... fine then: you have it now and you will work with it now. If you have a problem with the Halal of the past... well tough: there's nothing to fix, for that trail has ended..
