>> Halal slaughter?
>> Corporal punishment?
>> Capital punishment?
>> Aborting healthy fetus up to full term?
>> Using mental patients for medical experiments?
You've conveniently ranked those in something resembling an order of seriousness.
Halal slaughter can be, and for the most part is, done humanely. Kosher less so but we're more squeamish about taking on Judaism than Islam.
Corporal punishment when slapping your own child is one thing. Slippering and caning at school less so. Birching as was available to the Manx Courts until relatively recently would still see a significant minority in support. Same with capital punishment.
