    Alors, how could this happen?
  • Posted By Joellen Joellen | about 1 year ago
    As the original poster, I want to caution readers that some of the videos seem to contain false information about what the videos term "Jewish ritual slaughter." One video of the slaughter of a sheep discusses animal sacrifice as if this were still practiced by Jews. It is not. It is true that there are very specific rules for kosher slaughter, including requiring blood to drain from the body of an animal, but these rules are entirely about meat meant to be eaten as common food, and have little or nothing to do with ancient practices.
