So they slaughter animals and eat them, but do so at a temple instead of a slaughterhouse. What’s the big deal.
These animal rights activists, who no doubt are also global warmists, would prefer us to just get rid of all these animals, instead of raising the, feeding them, giving them a good life, and then slaughtering and eating them.
Would animals have more “rights” if you just got rid of most of the flocks and herds? Do slaughtered birds and animals have a worse end than animals in the wild who die of cold and starvation?
I think what’s revolting here is not the consumption of animal meat but as a mass slaughter (pigeons included) done to appease the legendary gods.
