To Stun or Not to Stun?

Advocacy groups have been fighting for years to stop electrocution by
death as a form of capital punishment based on the grounds that it is
inhumane. The vast majority of States currently only offer lethal
injection. Why then is electrocution then suddenly humane for animals?
Moreover, the rate of missed electrocutions resulting in the prolonged
suffering of the animals and the need to repeat the process,
logically, must be fairly high in a for profit manufacturing facility
where the focus is on increased productivity.
The arguments for stunning animals before slaughter are for the most
part emotional arguments presented by people who generally fear death,
are atheists, and have never actually witnessed a properly performed
slaughter. There is no scientific data presented to support their
arguments. The scientific data that is available actually supports
traditional slaughtering techniques.
We openly invite anyone to attend a properly performed traditional
slaughter to see for them self a process that can best be described as
sacred, peaceful and holy. In the near future we intend to develop a
documentary film on the entire process, but there is still nothing
like witnessing it first hand.
The biggest problems and arguments against traditional slaughtering
come from witnessing people who claim they know what they are doing
but in reality have no proper training or understanding. Having
witnessed dozens of slaughters conducted by "religious people"
claiming to know how to slaughter, I can say without a doubt that
almost all of them failed in doing it properly. The ignorance within
the religious community is at an all time high. These very same people
are the ones with the loudest voices attempting to defend and explain
something they them selves know very little about.
The root evil here is the corporations, religious or not, who attempt
to turn the slaughtering processes that used to be performed by a
local authorized butcher with years of apprentice training and sound
understanding of religious guidelines which requires respect for all
of creation, into a mass market business. These corporations actually
benefit from the increased regulations on slaughtering as the
equipment and facilities required by the regulations prevents smaller
butcher shops from slaughtering their own livestock. This is the real
issue, corporate dominance. This corporate dominance also prevents a
small family from raising and slaughtering their own livestock - again
a big benefit to corporations. It's all about controlling the market
through regulations that benefit whom? Yes, the corporations.
If things were as they should be there would be no long transportation
of livestock issues to debate. Local livestock would be purchased and
slaughtered by a local highly trained butcher who received an
apprenticeship from a qualified butcher. Local butchers used to go to
family farms and perform their services for families who wished to
raise their own livestock. This is a system pretty much available in
most underdeveloped countries in the world. Go there and you will see
a butcher shop on every other corner - hundreds of independent
businesses supporting the needs of local communities and families.
Understand also that this is about government control. A government
that can keep a family from raising and slaughtering its own chickens
and livestock and who also controls the production of eggs, cheese,
milk and other food products has a much greater economic control over
the people. If marshal law were to be enforced today, no one could
survive without food ration tickets, making the entire public
subservient to the government will. Think about this. People have all
but lost the skills to stay alive in an emergency situation.
This is a lengthy subject that could be debated forever, but if you
look to the logic of the arguments and the control issues imposed by
over regulating slaughtering, the issue becomes much clearer.
Two important issues to keep foremost in your minds when deciding this
matter, first, God knows best, not people. Secondly, the only
available scientific studies support traditional slaughtering methods.
Until someone can prove otherwise there is nothing to debate. For
those who believe and truly follow laws sanctioned by God, there is no
other information required; only learning to prefect what has already
been sanctioned.
Again, we invite anyone to attend a proper traditional slaughter.
Video tape it and show it to everyone who wishes to watch.
Slaughtering is an important part of life as it reconnects you to the
purpose of your creation and causes you to appreciate and cherish the
life you have been afforded. This is the main cause of depression in
the West - a disconnection from the meaning and purpose of life.
