It is not a Sin. Period. There is no objective morality at play here. Everything is subjective. So you might consider it a sin, I dont.
Also, Slitting the throat of the animal, to bleed it, ensures the fastest death. It immediately cuts blood supply to the brain, after which the animal becomes unconscious and immediately dies. Although I wouldn't mind stunning the animal before killing. That would be even more humane.
That is not always the case it all depends on the blade used as sometimes the animals suffer because the knife used is blunt. Stunning is the best method though.
In 2003, the Farm Animal Welfare Council (FAWC), an independent advisory group, concluded that the way halal and kosher meat is produced causes severe suffering to animals. FAWC argued that cattle required up to two minutes to bleed to death when such means are employed. The Chairperson of FAWC at the time, Judy MacArthur Clark, added, "this is a major incision into the animal and to say that it doesn't suffer is quite ridiculous."
