to the OP: I say…IMMORAL
In Jewish Law, hunting animals for sport is forbidden. If hunting is done for human survival, however, it is permissible; however, even in this case, the animal must be killed without brutality. That is why for an animal to be considered “kosher” for consumption, among many other requirements, it must be killed with the sharpest needle available to inflict the least pain.I don’t think it does unless one has no other available option at the time.
Yes, wearing fur can be legitimate like if there is no other option but otherwise I’d say its not legitimate. I mean, why brutally kill an animal for their fur when there are plenty of other options available that provide just as adequate a source of clothing?
In that country (as well as several other Asian countries), chances are that the animals aren’t being used just for their fur, but also their meat, bones, and everything else. The Church certainly wouldn’t object to it in that case.Hey everyone. I recently learned that in China, it is a common practice to kill cats and dogs for their fur. I am thoroughly disgusted by this myself. But anyway, is it moral or immoral?
Yeah. your right. This little bugger is too cute to eat. We shall exempt them.No! I love rabbits (as pets, not as food)!
The animal shelters that PETA speaks out against only kill about half their animals. PETA’s own animal shelters kill something closer to about 90%.How so?
Not just talking about a lack of sympathy for abortion. PETA is an animal rights group anyway, abortions would be out of their jurisdiction, for lack of better term.Right - and it always amazes me that they will have more sorrow and outrage for a clubbed baby seal than a human baby that is ripped piece by piece from the womb.
Hello again brother. Is it also written in the law, that the blood of the animal is not to be consumed because, it is the life of the animal? And also that the blood must be poured on the ground? And thirdly, that we are at the last Judgement going to have to give an account of this blood? PeaceIn Jewish Law, hunting animals for sport is forbidden.

I absolutely agree!I think that intentionally causing pain to a creature that has conscious experience is morally wrong.
Apparently you haven’t stepped on the nice little packages such animals leave on our streets, roads, and sidewalks. Not that I fully condone the brutality but neither do I have any love for dirty askal.I have seen how they do this in China and the Phillipines and its VERY VERY BARBARIC!
I don’t know. I’ve always said that my cat’s so cute, I could eat him.Yeah. your right. This little bugger is too cute to eat. We shall exempt them.![]()
Sorry about the packages, but when ya gotta go. You gotta go. Is this a reason for me to end up on your plate? I know im supposed to taste like beef, and I would probably go really good with gravy. but ,CMON!Apparently you haven’t stepped on the nice little packages such animals leave on our streets, roads, and sidewalks.

Om-nom-nom-nom!
Thank you for sharing all of this. I never realized that P.E.T.A. and its associates were that crazy or, shall I say, diabolical.The animal shelters that PETA speaks out against only kill about half their animals. PETA’s own animal shelters kill something closer to about 90%.
Also, people in PETA have been known to actually break into shelters and kill animals. Animals that would’ve gone to happy and loving families. They see pet ownership as a form of slavery, and believe all animals should be free in the wild. Including those breeds of dogs that have been domesticated for the past couple thousand years to the point where they wouldn’t last a week in the wild.
There’s also the fact that PETA directly supports organizations like the Animal Liberation Front (ALF), which if you didn’t know are domestic terrorists. They’re the kinds of people that break into labs and set all the animals free (and given that these animals are domesticated and don’t stand a chance in the wild, it’s basically the same as indirectly killing the animals).
I really do wish that PETA was just a bunch of harmless tree-huggers and the worst thing they did was cry every time the president swats a fly. But unfortunately they’re actually dangerous.
Not just talking about a lack of sympathy for abortion. PETA is an animal rights group anyway, abortions would be out of their jurisdiction, for lack of better term.
I was talking about the fact that PETA hates all animal testing. It would be understandable if they were at least somewhat reasonable, because sometimes scientists do go way farther than is necessary (especially some cosmetic testing). But no, they’re completely unreasonable about it. They’re even against testing which saves lives. PETA would rather people die rather than receive medications derived from animal testing or animal products. They would rather diabetics die than for insulin to be produced. Which is very hypocritical considering one of the main heads of PETA is a diabetic that needs this insulin to survive. How does she justify this to herself? She’s one of those the-rules-apply-to-everybody-but-me types.
That rabbit that you just showed reminds of one that I used to have (she died not long ago). She looked exactly like a hotot (having permanent eyeshadow, for instance). Interestingly, almost none of her immediate family bore that resemblance, looking more like rexes or lionheads.Yeah. your right. This little bugger is too cute to eat. We shall exempt them.![]()
Yes, Jewish Law does not permit consuming blood of any animal. Removal of blood is part of the koshering process, together with making sure the animal does not have any kind of disease which would render it unfit for consumption. That is why certain cuts of beef, such as porterhouse and filet mignon, are non-kosher, that is, since they come from the hindquarters, they are most difficult to drain of all blood. I don’t know if the blood must be poured on the ground, however. At the last Judgment, not only an account of the blood is required but an account of how we treated our pets and other animals. According to Jewish custom (not Torah), it is the animals themselves who will testify as to how they were treated by their masters. Another part of the Law states that our pets must be fed first before us and even our children. The justification is that they do not have the reason to delay their gratification the way we do.Hello again brother.

Thank you so much for the part in red. I posted this very teaching on another thread, But I could not back it up, because all my Jewish writings are back home. I am heading there for R+R though in a couple days. I cant wait to get ahold of my books. this is exactly what I thought. This is why Judaism Makes so much more sense sometimes. I have not eaten Any blood products in years, because of the teaching it is the life of the Animal. although perimitted in Catholicism, I see a health danger assosiated with doing such. blood borne pathogens being one. and its just plain Gross on the other hand.

I will be honest my young friend. I like rabbits for pets too. They are very soft, and very cute. And if its cool outside, they can produce alot of heat! Im glad you can see the humor, and I really do love all animals. I have never had a rabbit for a pet. But I have friends that have. And I do like to hold them and cuddle them.That rabbit that you just showed reminds of one that I used to have (she died not long ago).

My dear foreign friend, that pooch is too sosyal to be an askal breed. This thing on the other hand is yet another reason why my government is too corrupt in that it can’t even fund a decent dog pound to keep this mongrels off the streets. Ugh… >_<;; I wouldn’t even want to eat this! I just want it to stop being one excuse for why I don’t go out much in my neighborhood. T_TSorry about the packages, but when ya gotta go. You gotta go.
