Why animals matter
An essay
published at the Markkula Center for Applied Ethics on the Santa Clara
University website, approaches the questions of why animals matter
within Christendom.
Jesse Ramirez
explores the issues surrounding animals rights based on a Theocentric
thesis. He argues that factory farms
put believers in moral
conflict because they harm animals. However, Jesse Ramirez believes that
eating animals that “were allowed to develop at a natural pace, have
plenty of space, live in their natural environments, express natural
behavior, and keep their beaks and tails” do not violate any Christian
moral concern or obligation.
