ESSAY 1 Humans are trying to live their lives by establishing superiority over the other living species and human kind, too. They may have right when they think that is okay to do. They hunted animals greedly and as Mark Twain mentioned in his essay which is about The Lowest Animal man even said that they were patriots and religious –according to them they were the most one- on the World. However, human kind were wrong that they had misunderstood being the highest animal on the world. Twain was right about his statements about the Morality that makes us more demonic animals. Also Twain has a point about our behaviour.Twain thought that we were killing more animals just for our passion instead of making shift, and he also uttered that we were stocking of vast of foods which is also bad act that can’t be accepted for the highest animals about human behaviours.However Twain was not right about the part of ilnesses. He claimed that we had body parts which were unnecesary and malfucntion. Moral sense of human is one of the fundamental issue that is enlarging day by day with the help of our belief and enslaving people. For example according to Twain the inner sense enables us to do wrong things even we don’t want to do. To give an example from mythology, there is a man story that is about a passion of consuming, wanting everything from the heaven and the expulsion from paradise as a price of these requests. Adam is a prophet According to Muslim belief. It is believed that Adam was the first human on the world and also believed he was expelled from paradise just because he ate the apple which is believed that God forbade just this apple and allowed to eat all of the stuff on the heaven again according to the Muslim belief.However, Adam just wanted to eat that apple. It just seemed to him delicious, aqueous or Saytan whispered in Adam’s ear to eat that apple. We cannot be ensure.On the other

    Humans and animals are two different things; however, they can be the same. We consider ourselves different from animals because we don’t walk on all fours, don’t eat off the ground, we have manners, we know the difference between right and wrong, and we have free will. Although, animals have the ability to do what they want when they want,…

    animals naturally kill and eat each other. If the hawk does not care about the feelings of the rabbit that it eats, why should humans be any different? Is Rifkin saying that nature is wrong? Rifkin goes so far as to say that pigs need social contact and should be provided with toys. There are many real human children in the world who do not have these things. Are animals more important than human children? Should our society spend scarce resources on toys for pigs? Anyone who has owned a pet knows that animals can feel pain, happiness, anger, and other simple emotions. Most people have heard a parrot or a mynah bird talk, but this is…

    One of the many reasons as to why humans seems to think they are above nature is partly the fault of how we were raised growing up like Suzuki stated in his essay. Most kids, especially in North America, grew up in urban settings where everything is designed for the needs and wants of humans and like Suzuki said “it’s very easy to lose any sense of connection with nature” (paragraph 1). It is very true, we live in a very fast paced life that we forget that we are just another specie in nature, which leads us to kill anything that ruins our perfectly groomed house with the exception of certain city animals, which are sometimes accidentally killed by cars. Hopefully. Because of this, we think of them as a pest or an annoyance which is…

    Mark Twain says that the human race I cruel, and uncivilized. Unlike the animals, humans have the ability to care for those who are weak, sick, and otherwise unfortunate. In the wild if an animal is sick or weak, they are abandoned by their own species and are, ultimately, a source of food for another. The wounded are killed without a hesitation.…

    Having a moral sense can be a weakness in some aspects, however this is not always so. This sense shows that we acknowledge our boundaries and allows us to be civilized as human beings. It can be argued whether or not the human race is civilized, based on our faults. Our race is not innocent of murder and other cruel actions and this may seem to validate Mark Twain's (1896) accusation that "Man is the Cruel Animal" (pg.236), but these actions do not define us because they are not considered to be the norm. Without this sense, these actions could nonetheless be the norm. Actually, it is this "great defect" known as our moral sense that holds us from being at our worst and as monstrous as we could be.…

    The world is filled with ideas and topics in which people get to decide if it’s right or wrong, but how do you which one is truly right? Facts and proven statements are what makes you decide on the one if more accurate then just having a person say what they think. On an article titled “A Change of Heart About Animals,” by Jeremy Rifkin has information on how animals, “are more like us than we ever imagined.” I disagree. I strongly believe humans are and will always be the dominant species and animals shouldn’t ever be on the same level with us, animals are inferior to us and humans will always use them for our needs.…

    Augustine claims that animals have no fellowship among humans, and that is what makes it okay to kill animals for human consumption. Thomas Aquinas claims that animals lack reasoning and are driven by natural impulses. This is why they are naturally enslaved and exist for humans. These arguments all follow the concept that there is a hierarchy in the world. There is a natural food chain that all living things follow (LaBossiere). Humans are at the top of the food chain because they posses more abstract thought than any other animal. This mindset has been prevalent since ancient…

    Just like giving water to a dying person is pointless, a war started by trying to solve problems only to kill people is too. Mark Twain has been one of the biggest influences on American literature. He is highly respected for his humor, wit and his satirical view of the human species. In Mark Twain compelling essay The Lowest Animal; he talks about how humans are not as advanced morally as they should be, and how cruel man is. Twain proceeded on proving his appeal by using the scientific method: Ethos- making him creditable by conducting experiments, Logos- using logic or citing the facts and Pathos- playing on the emotions. The Lowest Animal makes humans revaluate themselves and actions and make us realize that we are no better than all of the other animals.…

    I feel that mostly everything in the world becomes natural and the natural part is hunting animals, which shouldn’t be done in the first place. Companies such as McDonald’s, Burger King, and KFC use animal meat for their fast-foods and people eat them. Makes me feel that if their eating animals that have flesh n blood, then why not eat humans because technically humans are also meat. So why not just eat yourself then?…

    The usual manner of justifying the claim that animals are not equal to human beings is to point out that only humans have some property, and then argue that that property is what confers a full and equal moral status to human beings. Some philosophers have used the following claims on this strategy: (1) only human beings have rights; (2) only human beings are rational, autonomous, and self-conscious; (3) only human beings are able to act morally; and (4) only human beings are part of the moral community.…
