Read the position from "Animal Rights
Debate."
Which sentence from the full passage can be used as a
plausible objection against this position?
Animals have no moral rights. They lack any sense of
morality. They lack an understanding of their duties
toward others. They lack the capacity for free moral
judgment.
Philosophers such as Thomas Aquinas have taught that,
while human beings engage in rational thought, animals
act purely on instinct. Therefore, animals do not behave
morally, and they are not members of a moral
community
Since animals have no concept of morality, they are not
entitled to any rights or indeed to any moral or legal
consideration at all.
"This means that there is evidence that chimps, and
perhaps other animals, can reflect on their thoughts
and behavior, just like humans."
"We are no more justified in denying direct moral
status to animals than in denying moral status to
human beings."
"Interestingly, European laws protect animals to a
greater extent than US law."
O "One of these
groups is People for the Ethical
Treatment of Animals, or PETA."
