Quote by: The Dunedan However, the remaining animal species do not have rights as we humans understand them. Humans do, however, being Sentient and Sapient, have a moral obligation to treat animals humanely and not to abuse them. This is not to say that they should not be killed; having no awareness of Death or Mortality it does not effect them. However, they can and do feel pain, and should therefore be killed in as painless and humane a manner as circumstances allow, and not made to suffer. People who consciously, intentionally, or negligently abuse animals are the lowest of the low, in my opinion. |
Does that mean you oppose the meat industry and never buy meat at the store?
