Animals have a heart, do you?

Animals feel, have a heart, have siblings, parents…they can’t think logically like us, nor take drastic decisions, but can human babies or elderly people can as well? When you are growing up you must know the difference between what is right, and what is wrong. A virtuous person might eat stake only to fulfill his needs, but you probably won’t see him hanging a moose’s head or an alpaca any time soon on his wall. The line that defines good and evil is very confusing and sometimes even misinterpret. Many vegetarian people say that it is not morally correct to kill animals and eat meat, but plants are as much alive as we all are. Probably they even have a greater function on earth than all mammals and cold blooded animals. People who practice virtue ethics have been raised as moral agents; they know what the right thing to do by instinct. This is what people should and shouldn’t do. People should eat meat, having in mind that they should be very grateful that a living thing gave its life to support your own. This is what you shouldn’t do. If you dislike puppies or cats, don’t mess with them, just let them be. There are many people that will probably won’t ever like you, but they won’t get on your case or jump you, well most of the time. We humans as well belong to the animal kingdom; although in contemporary times we rule the world, let us never forget that as we evolved some other species may as well.

  1. Animal do have a heart and humans also have a heart but you cant put animals over humans, we need their bodies to keep us warm to give us rations and to stay safe. Animals play a huge part in everyones life and it has been that way since the beginning of time. Animals work for our satisfaction.

  2. Animals are very intelligent, they dont know whats wrong or bad because of their instinct but they are very intelligent, and makes us surprise of their inteligence. they as well have feelings and heart. Is not morally good to kill animals because we either accepted or not accepted, animals play an important role to human beings, for example the dogs, dogs are humans best friends, they are loyal to you and makes human beings happy!. Animals are important and have feelings nut dont know whats good or right.

  3. Aw, get real. Animals may have hearts, but they don't do much good when they're having make-up tested on them! We have to test products on something, anyway.. We might as well use fairly similar subjects to the ones who'll use it anyway. If we can avoid using humans, and putting humans through the pain of testing, then animals are a righteous and viable option.
