Dominion Matthew Scully (2003) Presents a strong argument about the immorality of modern animal farming from a biblical perspective. www.matthewscully.com God’s Covenant with Animals: A Biblical Basis for the Humane Treatment of All Creatures J.R. Hyland (2004) “From Genesis to Christ, the Bible testifies to God’s love and concern for animals. The same self-centeredness that led to the violence and abuse that has marked human relations also caused the abuse and exploitation of animals. The Bible, argues the author, calls upon human beings to stop their violence and abuse of each other and all other creatures. It promises that when they do, the sorrow and suffering that marks life on Earth will give way to the joy and peace that God ordained at the creation of the world.” Animal Theology Andrew Linzey (1994) “Animal rights is animal theology, in Andrew Linzey’s view. He argues that historical theology, creatively defined, must reject humanocentricity. He questions the assumption that if theology is to speak on this issue, “it must only do so on the side of the oppressors.” Linzey’s theological query investigates not only the abstractions of theory, but also the realities of hunting, animal experimentation, and genetic engineering. He is an important, pioneering, Christian voice speaking for those who cannot speak for themselves.” Animal Gospel Andrew Linzey (1998) “In this book Andrew Linzey provides a new Christian credo for animals. Our treatment of animals is a gospel issue, he = contends, because those individuals and institutions that could have become the voice of God’s most vulnerable creatures have instead justified cruelty and oppression.” Click Here to E-Mail Your Request |
