It's The Law!

NY Appellate Court: Orthodox Jews Have Right to Slaughter Chickens in Ritual



Quote:
Just before Yom Kippur begins, some Ultra-Orthodox Jewish people practice a ritual called “Kapparot” (also spelled “Kaparot” or “Kaparos”) in which they swing a live chicken around their heads three times in order to transfer their sins to it. Because logic. Afterwards, they slaughter the chicken.

If that's the law, shouldn't it be legal for Isis followers to decapitate people?

What the fuck?

Always question all authorities because the authority you don't question is the most dangerous... except me, never question me.

For once you raise a good point.
The legal allowance of this chicken practice just because it is religiously specified crosses a line.
