have the moral rights nonhuman animals? What kind of legal status should we give them? This debate has become hugely confusing. Some activist animal rights maintain that we must allow other animals have the same rights as humans. Of course‚ this is absurd. There are many human rights are simply not applicable to non-human beings. I would like to propose something a little different. A sensible and coherent on animal rights theory should focus on only a right for all animals: the right not to be treated

“Religion and Animal Rights” by American Philosopher Tom Regan‚ Mr. Regan maintains the position that animals are the “subjects-of-a-life”‚ just as humans are. If we want to ascribe value to all human beings regardless of the degree of rationality they are capable of‚ then in order to be consistent we must similarly ascribe it to non-human animals as well.
