Animal sacrifices did NOT please God

[compassionategirl]

This is just a cross reference to anybody intrigued by this topic . This question is directly addressed in my post in the "WOuld God be vegan" thread. If you think that God was pleased by death and blood of animals, you may want to read that post where I talk about J.R. Hyland's book "God's Covenant with Animals".

But the short answer is God was NOT PLEASED by animal sacrifices in his name!!!

In Islam, the Quran says that:

"It is not the blood that reaches God, but your righteousness and piety"

THe whole idea behind it was so that you could feed the poor people as well, not some blood sacrifice.
