basis of religion. That almost gets you to Jefferson's wall of
separation between Church and State!
Bans prayer rooms at public universities. Bans "exclusively" Halal and
Kosher meals at public hospitals.
Bans staff at public hospitals and
state subsidized day care from wearing head-to-toe covering garments or garments that hide the full face.
Begins with video of Muslim pro-Palestine protestors doing street
prayer-ins at the most prominent Catholic church to disrupt services and street access to church. The prayer services are amplified to disrupt
the service inside the church. They've been doing this for years. It's oobviously illegal and police could have started by issuing everyone a traffic citation and nuissance citation for the noise the first time
it happened. Reallly didn't have to wait for the provincial law.

You are forgetting about "koshering", which is a salting and/or brining process attempting to eliminate blood remaining after the slaughtered
carcas was drained. Depending on how much salt was used, the meat can be excessively salty to some tastes. I don't know if there is a halal counterpart to this.
Generally, I agree with your point. I don't see how accomodating a
religious preference in meal preparation is a religious Establishment.

Well, that's my point. Being an atheist, I don't care if they slaughter the meat one way or another. If the burger tastes good, that's all I care about.
But if the government is *forcing* private businesses to only serve halal or kosher to cater to religious groups, then that's a problem.

go halal; I had the impression it was a decision by the business so that they didn't have to ask the customer which style of meat they wanted or
have to deal with different procedures/logistics for halal, kosher or whatever.
I don't know if they actually have a sign or deliver a verbal warning to customers indicating that they are getting halal though; I'd be
surprised if they do since it would inevitably lead to unhappy reactions from some people over the political/religious considerations. I wonder
if there are any dietary implications? For instance, does halal involve particular spices that must be used and could cause health implications
for someone, the way peanuts and other items cause grievous issues for
anim? If so, that kind of thing would HAVE to be made known to customers
at the point of order.

Hala and Kosher use salt to get rid of additional blood, a concern for someone on a sodium-restricted diet.
There used to be a guy who went all over Usenet complaining about kosher >symbols on food. He thought the kosher inspections raised prices for the >rest of us, but most people said he was wrong.
If it's one production line, there's no way the extra cost could be
noticed by consumers. If a separate production line, it would be.
During Passover, certain foods are simply not sold even if they could be
made Kosher for Passover because setting up a Passover-only production
line for an 8-day period is absurdly expensive. There's no choice with matzoh, though.
Animal rights activists oppose both halal and kosher because it prolongs the suffering of the animal. It has to be killed and bled dry while it's alive, as
opposed to the industry standard practice of just driving a bolt through its brain which kills it instantly.

I've heard that one before. It is definitely less humane, but it doesn't affect the quality of the meat according to most.
There are those who say it does, that the animal's pain and fear lead to adrenaline and other chemicals which aren't good for us. I have trouble believing that, given that we originally hunted our meat over distances.
I'm sure they were plenty afraid as we closed in.

Really should include chickens
willing to eat meat along with anything else they can find. Cows, on
the hand, aren't the carnivorous sort. Nor are most other related
animals like buffalo or bison.

Animal rights activists oppose both halal and kosher because it prolongs the
suffering of the animal. It has to be killed and bled dry while it's alive, as
opposed to the industry standard practice of just driving a bolt through its
brain which kills it instantly.
I've heard that one before. It is definitely less humane, but it doesn't >>> affect the quality of the meat according to most.
There are those who say it does, that the animal's pain and fear lead to >>> adrenaline and other chemicals which aren't good for us. I have trouble
believing that, given that we originally hunted our meat over distances. >>> I'm sure they were plenty afraid as we closed in.
I doubt they'd have realized we were armed...
We weren't armed in those days. Before we figured out how to make
weapons, we ran our prey down. This is the usual explanation for why we developed sweating (and lost our fur for it): under the African sun, we
could keep going after the prey overheated and collapsed.
I love prehistory.

How would you feel if ALL the meat at your favourite burger joint was
halal? I read an article a few months back saying that at least one
chain - I don't recall which one - makes ALL their meat halal so you
don't even have a choice.
Why do you want a choice, though? Is there something wrong with meat
killed the halal way?
Are you concerned it's raising prices?
There used to be a guy who went all over Usenet complaining about kosher symbols on food. He thought the kosher inspections raised prices for the
rest of us,
but most people said he was wrong.
