It's not literally that. Back when these methods were written down, they were thought as minimizing suffering because you had to make it quick. A non religious farmer who wouldn't care could torture the animal for dozens of minutes by doing it carelessly while halal / kosher farmers would use proper methods
Now technology evolved so there's debate to be had but the initial intent wasn't cruelty, quite the contrary
This implication that Halal slaughtering processes purposefully maximize animal suffering has real "those savage bloodthirsty arabs" vibes. The methods may not be particularly kind, but let's not pretend what happens to animals in the west is any better. And it's particularly gross and inaccurate to say that religious food laws purposefully maximize suffering.
damn you managed to slip both Islamophobia and antisemitism into the same comment. Wild dude.
Also Kosher and Halal have more rules than just around meat dipshit.
Please tell me what animal slaughter was involved in my jar of Kosher dill pickles you edgelord reddit atheist?
God says it makes the meat taste better.
