Do you hold any beliefs that you refuse to reconsider? Why?

1 Answer

Answer :

That animals have rights just like we do? I don’t think anything can ever make me change my mind here. They’re living beings that deserve to be treated with respect and humanely at all times. They’re not “lesser” beings that humans and therefore shouldn’t be looked down upon as being “just animals”, and this “they’re just animals” attitude should not be a justification for them ever suffering unduly in the care of humans. Edit: and also, humans having self appointed themselves as rules and masters over everything and the most important living beings on the planet is just arrogant and wrong.
