By Margaret Lawson Against Vivisection May I through your magazine ask one question which is on the lips of
many besides my own? Namely, why is the voice of the Church not raised in protest at the
diabolical treatment of God's animal creation in vivisection
laboratories both in medical and cosmetic research and manufacture?
Surely such treatment is not what 'dominion' means - there is ample
evidence throughout the Bible of God's love and care for His animal
creation, so why should man 'made in his image' show such callousness
and cruelty? How can any Christian reconcile the agonies inflicted on innocent
animals with the Christian virtue of love, mercy and compassion? Surely
true compassion should extend to include all God's creation and not
merely sinful mankind. I appeal to all ministers, members and adherents
with the advancement of God's kingdom truly at heart to give this matter
their earnest consideration. "Thou Shalt not hurt nor destroy in all My Holy Mountain" saith the
Lord. Life and Work magazine http://www.churchofscotland.org.uk/lifework/index.htm Return to Margaret Lawson: Letters |
