| Non-valid arguments
for taking animal rights too seriously |
 |
Reaction |
| treating animals
justly is good for your karma |
|
only if you believe
that |
| animals are equal
to humans |
|
only if it means
having equal basic rights
If it means, "should be treated as equals":
no |
| animals have intrinsic
value |
|
the value of something
has nothing to do with its rights |
| animals respect
the right to freedom for humans |
|
that is not a conscious
choice for an animal and cannot be ascribed
to the animal |
