Give Me a Break
“mariner:
Being vegetarian because of cruelty to animals is NOT k’fira! When HaShem allowed us to eat meat, the slaughtering process was NOTHING compared to the horror it is today! If anything, YOU’RE the kofer, because we have an issur of tza’ar ba’alei chayim!”
are you taking some type of medicine that effects your brain? in the bais hamikdash they were up to their knees in blood on erev pesach. animals were being slaughtered all over the place, and i guarantee you it was not pretty. on yom kippur we chucked a live goat down a clif! something tells me peta would go nuts if we did this nowadays! bu io forget, accorsing to you, god isnt merciful! just because one slaughter house “possibly” did not act appropriately (and agri still has not been brought up on cruelty to animal charges, just 31 instances of hiring teens) does not make eating meat cruel. and yes, if you say eating meat is cruel, then you are a kofer.
on another note, every person who has teens put up their succah, and clean their cars before pesach, and illegals to clean their house, you are all just as liable under the law as agri, so watch where you point blame.
