Matthew Scully
Matthew Scully, vegetarian, Christian, writer and conservative,
reveals what prompted him to write his book Dominion: The Power of Man,
the Suffering of Animals, and the Call to Mercy (St. Martin's Press).
This is what he says: “A few years ago I began a book about cruelty
to animals and about factory farming in particular, problems that had
been in the back of my mind for a long while. At the time I viewed
factory farming as one of the lesser problems facing humanity—a small
wrong on the grand scale of good and evil but too casually overlooked
and too glibly excused. This view changed as I acquainted myself with
the details and saw a few typical farms up close. By the time I finished
the book, I had come to view the abuses of industrial farming as a
serious moral problem, a truly rotten business for good reason passed
over in polite conversation.”
