My country decided that animal sacrifice in the name of religion is constitutional

Another person said that s(he) can't form an opinion because s(he) eats meat, and it is almost the same thing. She feels it's wrong, but at the same time thinks it's prejudice against some religions if we are worried about a couple of animals and continue to kill millions just to eat.
I can agree and disagree with this point, but one thing being wrong doesn't give a pass to other things.
But if we agree that it's constitutional to sacrifice animals, then what certain religions do to women (or any person) should be at the same level.
That's why i disagree at the end. It shouldn't be allowed, period.
The animal being sacrificed didn't chose to be there, nor the human being mistreated.
What are your opinions? Can someone point what i'm thinking wrong here?
PS: Sorry for my poor wording because english is not my first language. I wanted to know the opinion here about morals or what is right or wrong, not the law itself. Of course that any discussion on that is welcome too.

Personally, free speech to me means that while platforms like Facebook and YouTube are not required to host it, if they so choose to host it they should be able to do so. Speech should not be restricted because it is offensive or because it is viewed as immoral. This applies doubly so to political speech, which terrorism is the most extreme form.
