According to The Age, Ikebal Patel, president of the Australian Federation of Islamic Councils, said ”I think any individual, whether they’re Muslim or Jewish, should be allowed to have meat on their table that is in accordance with their religious beliefs.” Hey man, we don’t even have the right to swear in public, what on earth makes you think that you have the right to torture innocent creatures?
It seems that without asking our views, our State and Federal governments agree and have sanctioned legalised torture of livestock in many local abattoirs. Don’t these idiots in power understand that civilized Australians do not condone any form of brutality against any living thing?
More importantly, don’t they understand that we do not condone any barbaric behavior based on lunatic, so called religious, beliefs?
Religions which do not even give humans of the female persuasion equal rights have no place in our civilized society and we certainly do not need to make any allowances for the medieval practices of barbarians.
If you don’t like Aussie meat, eat vegetables!
