Food Fight! Davis versus Regan on the Ethics of Eating Beef

This is an academic article on the morality of eating meat in pdf. Author: Andy Lamey Abstract: One of the starting assumptions of the debate over the ethical status of animals is that someone who is committed to reducing animal suffering should not eat meat. Peter Singer, Tom Regan and other philosophers associated with the so-called animal rights movement—which is probably better referred to as the animal protection movement, given that not all of its adherents employ a theory of rights—have advocated vegetarianism and veganism as the dietary embodiments of their philosophies. On the other side of the debate, philosophers who have challenged animal protection often argue that animals occupy a minimal to nonexistent moral status, and go on to invoke this as a premise in a defense of meat-eating. Despite the disagreements between the two camps, both take it for granted that the philosophy of animal protection and the practice of avoiding meat rise and fall together. Cheers!

gotta love the people who think it's funny to glorify the death of animals as smart as your pet dog or cat
