This is what burns my ass. Religion = barbarism. Why we need to waste time and energy subjecting animals, and people to barbaric practices to suit the political correctness of "religious freedom" if you ask me, it's not religious freedom. It's religious slavery. Religious freedom is being free from religion, not chained to it against your will, and dragging everyone else with you.

atheists are even more offensive than muslims though.

Halal and kosher meat should never have been approved in the west and it's trade made illegal. Sale, possession, consumption of such products should be treated the same way they treat animal cruelty cases.

They were banned in Germany in the 1930's iirc.

As if anyone with authority on the matter considers it a moral issue. For them it's about politics and economics; just a small concession so as to reap the dollars from a large group of tax paying citizens.

If the military is voluntary then there should be no dietary accommodations for anything other than medical need. Period. You volunteer and are the one with special needs that are not medical so you are responsible for knowing if the meals fit your religious needs or not. If not, don't fucking volunteer. Only argument I could ever see for requiring this would be during draft times.

It's against my religion to eat halal meat, it is unclean.
