Animal slaughter equals animal sacrifice in religious terms. I came a group of Iranian journalists who were discussing the slaughter of camels in Islamic countries. I googled the issue, it’s horrific. Just look at this:
Eid Al-Adha: Animals “The most important feature of this Eid is to sacrifice an animal. The rich should perform the sacrifice and not neglect it.” I took this from some site at random seeing that this “religious feast” is all about slaughtering nonhuman animals.
The Iranian journalists compared the attitude showed towards life in regard to nonhuman animals to the same attitude shown towards humans. Of course nonhuman animals are factually treated worse and have a worse position that any human has in e homocentrist world. We need human rights to have the right to defend nonhuman animals, that’s for sure though.
After seeing many graphic documentations especially of camel slaughter I also came across this petition that you guys should all sign too:
This is nothing to do with religion, and it’s all about injustice towards nonhuman animals too (homocentrism)
