    All over the world, millions of animals are being abused, exploited, and neglected; but is it our

    issue, as humans, to create a Bill of Rights to protect them? Since animals do not have voice in society to
    defend themselves from the harm that humans have inflicted time and time again, it is our duty to prevent
    this sort of cruelty.

    Harming innocent and defenseless animals goes beyond evil - it is simply inhumane. Putting
    animals in a position where they are subjected to harmful chemicals genetically modifying experiments is
    barbaric and cruel. This also implies that humans have no regard for animal life, that they think of
    animals. Can we still be called a good person if we can’t protect or take care of even our own pet?
    heartless people who do not know how to appreciate every living being in this world.

     ANIMAL RIGHTS as a Mainstream Phenomenon


    The twentieth century has witnessed a bewildering array of ethical revolutions,
    from civil rights to environmentalism to feminism. Often ignored is the rise of massive
    societal concern across the world regarding animal treatment. Regulation of animal
    research exists in virtually all western countries, and reform of “factory farming” is
    regnant in Europe and rapidly emerging in the United States. Opponents of concern
    for animals often dismiss the phenomenon as rooted in emotion and extremist lack of
    appreciation of how unrestricted animal use has improved human life. Such a view
    totally ignored the rational ethical basis for elevating legal protection for animals.

     Animal rights groups generally argue that the use of animals for food,
    adornment, (furs, leather, etc.), labor, and scientific research constitutes
    unjustifiable violence against our fellow living beings, who have the same rights
    to life and liberty as we do.

     Animal rights is the philosophy according to which many or all sentient animals
    have moral worth that is independent of their utility for humans, and that their
    most basic interests – such as in avoiding suffering – should be afforded the
    same consideration as similar interests of human beings. Broadly Speaking,
    and particularly in popular discourse, the term “animal rights” is often used
    synonymously with “animal protection or “animal liberation”. More narrowly,
    “animal rights” refers to the idea that many animals have fundamental rights to
    be treated with respect as individuals – rights to life, liberty, and freedom from
    torture that may not be overridden by considerations of aggregate welfare.

    In my own opinion, all animals deserve respect, because they are like human beings, the only difference
    is that we can speak, we can do what we want to do, we can think, we can make many decisions even if it
    is right or wrong, and above all we are the most intelligent beings in this world, but they are not like that.
    We are the ones who should protect them, we were all made equal by the Lord God, we were made
    people not to hurt animals, but to care for, love, and protect them as well.
