religion and animal rights
A minister wrote this passage arguing that it is not anit-Christian to responsibly kill animals and that not being a strict animal rights activist does not mean you are not Christian. He defines an animal rights activist as someone who believes that animals have simalr rights to humans and that they should not be interfered with. He then explains the difference between animal rights activists and protectionists, who he believes are much more reasonable because they believe that if it is justified, than killing an animal is ok. This minister also uses direct Bible quotes to state that God gave the earth to people, not animals. God wanted man to protect different species from extinction, not the rights of each individual animal. Furthermore God gave man the right to eat animals and if killing and eating animals were wrong, then Christ himself would have been a sinner...
