Summary
More on the contradiction in the first mishnah of the tractate, with attempts to determine what caveat works for the distinction between the ideal circumstances for kosher slaughtering as compared to after the fact. With a spotlight on the case of the "Kutim" (Samaritans) whose shechitah was accepted if overseen by an observant Jew. [Who's Who: Kutim/Samaritans] The question is what degree of supervision is required. And the test for kashrut is whether the Samaritan himself would eat his own shechitah. Plus, rounding up all 6 opinions regarding careful reading of the mishnah to draw that ideal/after the fact (lekhathilah/ bedi'avad) distinction.
