In this paper I am going to argue that Singer is right to claim that human suffering and animal suffering should be given equal consideration. I believe that animals have the capacity to suffer‚ as human do there is no difference in suffering because we are of different species.

Pugh write about suffering? Suffering is the state of undergoing pain‚ distress‚ or hardship.

The Undeniable suffering of farm animals The view of the treatment of animals in our society is certainly impaired. We are behind a veil of ignorance because we have no idea what is truly going on in farms and labs. At such a young age we are inclined to eat meat by our parents‚ so as we grow up eating meat becomes a habit for us and we don’t stop to realize about how and where the meat came from. The media rarely portrays the brutality and cruelty of animals‚ so there really is no way for people

“Although the world is full of suffering‚ it is also full of the overcoming of it”. (Helen Keller). Helen Keller is like Morrie schwartz because morrie suffers through his pain but he overcomes it by enjoying what he has left of life.

Evil And Uniqueness of God For a theologian or an ordinary person concerned with the problem of theodicy‚ human suffering appears to be inconsistent with the notion of a God who is all-powerful and good. It is rationally inconceivable to claim belief in such a God when people are faced with senseless suffering in their day-today-life. How do we respond to the events of suffering that challenge our relationship with God and call into question our whole identity as human beings? A friend
