    The article talks about a book on how animals should have rights as in equal consideration. Animals have the ability to suffer as well as a human being. Why should or should not animals have rights?

    Good points. Are you vegan or vegetarian? Most animals have the ability to feel pain. Adolf Hitler stated that prey species such as deer, elk, gazelle, antelopes, etc. are healthier and can run for longer periods of time and promoted healthy eating (though he was a hippocrate and ate meat himself). When people eat meat they get tired easier, need more water, and have less energy. Without a moral foundation one can justify almost anything. Do you think Christian doctrine is to blame? After all, God told Peter to eat meat. Maybe it was the best choice in order to make peace with the gentiles and not eating meet would have made Peter look aloof. Then again, in Genesis it states that God gave mankind plants to eat and not meat. From a convenient point of view is it practical to only buy products that are not made from animals? Even makeup has animal products in it. What about shoes, clothes, purses, etc? Also, if you have time, I would suggest researching Ralph Smart. Have a good day.

    I enjoyed reading this article as well. Animals have very similar traits as humans. They eat, feel, and suffer just as humans do. Why should we strict them of their rights? Just because they do not have a voice to defend themselves does not mean we should ignore the equality they deserve.

    I loved this! Animals have such a huge place in my heart and definitely deserve all the rights as us humans do. I hate hearing stories or seeing videos posted on Facebook of animals being neglected.. I don't understand how some people can do such a thing to an animal who cannot even defend themselves. They just want to be loved and nurtured.

    The article made some great points. Animals do suffer. They feel pain and fear. Because of this, they definitely should be given rights. Like the article stated, I grew up eating meat, but have made the transition into vegetarianism thanks to my wife who is a vegan. All it took was for me to be educated on where our meat is coming from and the conditions of the animals being slaughtered. If people could read these types of articles and watch documentaries like "Earthlings" and "Cowspiracy" I am sure they might also consider vegetarianism or veganism.

    Social justice includes animal protection. Animals are just like humans and deserve protection just like we do.

    Firstly, recognising that social justice includes animal protection involves acknowledging that how our behaviour affects animals matters both morally and politically. Moreover, it involves acknowledging it matters not merely because many humans care about the plight of animals. Rather, our behaviour matters because of its effect on the lives of animals themselves.

    This site examines the history of the long debated topic of Animal's rights. The article is very factual and presents why animals have rights and what influenced that decision.

    This PETA article gives you the basics on why animal testing is wrong and inhumane. It gives statistics regarding how many animals are used for testing and also gives tips on how to help these beautiful creatures.

    I agree 100% about this. This article is a real eye opener and it makes me sick. It is not right for beauty companies to test on animals, or any company to test on anything.

    This website includes a credible authors' writing about animal rights. She evaluates different species and offers good insight on their minds capabilities, stating that "differences aren't morally relevant to the issue of basic rights." Animals should not have to act like humans in order to gain rights for themselves.

    This article explains how animal experimentation and how wrong it is. Animals also feel pain like us while they are being put through these test. It also explains different ways to test new products.

    By testing animals, we are violating their rights. This site also explains that their suffering is not worth the benefits it brings to us. It also goes on to give alternatives to animal testing.

    Animal abuse being showed in pictures being too graphic for media. Telling people that it's needed to show people the torture that animals go through, and that it is not right.
