Pro-Life and Pro-Animal
I must confess: I prefer pro-choice vegans to religion-motivated right-to-lifers, because vegans don't glibly say "I believe" while hiding behind Scriptures they aren't even following. It's easier to convince a pro-choice vegan to oppose abortion than to convince a religious right-to-lifer to go vegan, because vegans don't hide behind their religion -- if they even have one!
Let me bring up some points of my own.
Please read the ENTIRE ARTICLE HERE for extensive coverage of these points:
- My own experience as a Hindu vegetarian and as an animal advocate is that *Christians* are incredibly anti-semitic
- The pro-choice premise that it's acceptable to kill the unborn because they are not human is based on the flawed premise that it's acceptable to kill animals
- The Slippery Slope
- An Analogy
- Abortion and war are the karma for killing animals
- Cause-and-effect
- Christians really shouldn't hide behind the Bible!
- Along the lines of Reverend Linzey's words above, I would argue pro-life Christians are in a special position to understand animal rights: the animals' right to life
