Should animals have rights based on their capacity to suffer? Bentham’s argument challenges us to rethink our treatment of animals, suggesting that factors like the number of legs or skin type are insufficient grounds for their mistreatment.
In this video, we dive into the ethical perspectives of Peter Singer, who advocates for animal rights, and Immanuel Kant, who emphasizes human autonomy and rationality. We also examine Aristotle's virtue ethics and his idea of telos, questioning whether the lives of farm animals align with their natural purposes. Finally, we tackle Nietzsche's critique of Kantian morality and discuss a potential solution within a deterministic framework.
Do we owe animals moral consideration? Should we all become vegetarians or vegans? Or is humane treatment sufficient?
