American Olympic Team & Christian Athletes to be Fed with Halal Meat

Supermarkets, airlines, hotels, restaurants, etc. have been selling unbadged halal meat for donkeys years. I thought it was common knowledge...

I am sat here deeply saddened and a little upset that the majority of people I work with show so little compassion towards how their meat is slaughtered.

I am more concerned about the quality of the animals life than the details of how they were slaughtered. After all, life goes on a lot longer than death so any suffering is necessarily much more prolonged. I am of course concerned about slaughter too. Ideally the animal would not know anything about it and feel no pain at all. However, let's face it, it is going to be unpleasant whichever way it is done and so the important thing for me is that it is over quickly.

People who buy food should have access to full information about what they are buying, ideally. I want to be sure that I am not inadvertently supporting factory farming. Unfortunately, that information is not readily available for processed foods or, indeed, restaurant food.

What difference does prayers make?

Well, what difference does it make to Muslims who eat it? (Who apparantly don't tend to buy meat from supermarkets anyway)

Exactly the same difference as it does to me.

Why say Islamic prayers for meat that isn't going to Islamic followers? Seems rather pointless and a waste of time..
