Sacrifice in the name of religious rituals does not mean taking the life of an animal. It does not mean publicly boasting about purchasing the largest cow, goat or sheep in the neighborhood. And it certainly does not mean laughing and rejoicing while a living, breathing, feeling animal is forcibly beheaded - screaming in terror and unimaginable agony - by unskilled and untrained slaughterers. True sacrifice is giving charity. True sacrifice is giving up things we hold dear - whether it be fame, gold, cars, alcohol or cigarettes...there are plenty of material indulgences we can sacrifice in exchange for spiritual fulfillment - so why choose to sacrifice an animal's life? This is no different from outdated paganistic rituals in which animals are sacrificed in exchange for self-gratification. Learn the true meaning of sacrifice and stop slaughtering animals in the name of religion now!
