It is your assertion, the burden of proof lies with you.

Anyway it does not help your argument, if pain is completely subjective and immeasurable and can't even be estimated then you can't prove the Halal/JKosher method causes more pain than stunning method or even that beating or burning the animal to death causes more pain.

As I have said from the fking beginning, your statement that
certain throat slitting of mammals is painless is not fact.
Make me look a mug and tell me why you can measure pain to
to such a degree to back that up. If you cannot, your staement
is not a fact. End of.
Prove it is without a shadow of a doubt!!!!
Make me look stupid, this is the perfect opportunity.

Even if you were correct about measuring pain then you'd loose the main argument because you couldn't prove Halal/kosher is more painful than stunning.

There are several pages in which the posts give off that idea already I'm afraid.

Can you not read? Halal/Kosher/Whatever Creosote Strawberry Jam!
I can be as irrelevant as you if you like.

Your statement that slitting a mammals throat is painless is not
a fact because pain cannot be measured and if you can show me
how it can be, then do so and make me look like a retard then.

Are you ******* serious?

IF PAIN CANNOT BE MEASURED AT ALL THEN IT MEANS YOU CANNOT PROVE IT IS PAINLESS OR PAINFUL.

Anyway we are not just talking about measuring pain but seeing if it was there at all. The stunning method produced electrical impulses which signified pain, the halal/kosher method did not, there was no pain in the latter method to measure.

I have said a million times, you cannot say certain methods of
slitting a mammals throat is painless. It is not a fact. And that is
all I have said.

I'll make it easy for you, 100% of a hundred is 100
99% of a hundred is ninety nine...
Not the same are they? And until you can tell me why
certain methods of slitting a mammals throat is painless,
then that statement is as wrong as 99% of a hundred is
a hundred.

At last, so it is not a fact to say that certain methods of slitting a mammals throat is painless then is it!!!!

Did you notice the word is in that sentence. You do know what that word means right?

if - Definition from the Merriam-Webster Online Dictionary

Main Entry: if
Pronunciation: \ˈif, əf\
Function: conjunction
Etymology: Middle English, from Old English gif; akin to Old High German ibu if
Date: before 12th century
1 a: in the event that b: allowing that c: on the assumption that d: on condition that
2: whether <asked if the mail had come> <I doubt if I'll pass the course>
3—used as a function word to introduce an exclamation expressing a wish <if it would only rain>
4: even though : although perhaps <an interesting if untenable argument>
5: and perhaps not even <few if any changes are expected> —often used with not<difficult if not impossible>
— if anything : on the contrary even : perhaps even <if anything, you ought to apologize>


Anyway **** this I'm done here. I've proved my point and not bveen seriously challenged.

Yes, I do, all day long, I'm a linguist, in four languages.
"If" It means that where it is used, it makes certain words/phrases
conditional, but thanks for reminding me, I typed that myself
by the way, and didn't rely on a cut and paste job from Google
or another on-line source to help me in my ignorance.
You carry on digging that hole mate, it's quite deep
already, but I think you'll bury yourself in it soon enough.
I'm off for some breakfast, and then I'll continue with my
motorcycle re-build as it's sunday.
ATB!!!

The bottom line is that you can't beat a good steak.

It's rightly said that if animals weren't meant to be eaten they wouldn't be made out of meat, and since it's a bit uncouth in most quarters to take a bite out of a passing cow as long as the buggers are killed before grilled, so what.

The REAL issue on this thread relates to another animal, this time a pig, who has abused and insulted British kids, and in so doing and by the nature of the insult has likewise abused and insulted us ALL and who should be made to pay the price.
