Christian Vegetarian Association Presents:
Take
Heart!
Opinion - Peter Singer and Bruce Friedrich
Peter Singer, author of Animal Liberation and professor of bioethics at Princeton University; and Bruce Friedrich, vice president for People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA), write about the accomplishments by the animal rights movement in behalf of the animals exploited by humans on a daily basis. They challenge people to realize that although small, the steps taken by some major fast food industries regarding their animal welfare regulations have actually alleviated, to various degrees, the suffering of billions of animals. Singer and Friedrich have also recognized the desire of animal rights advocates for empty cages, not just bigger cages.

As Christian vegetarians we also strive and hope for the day in which all animals are liberated from human oppression. Although the path to it seems full of obstacles and hardened hearts we should not get discouraged and should try to be the best witnesses we can of the love of God for His creation by showing respect, compassion and love. The time will come when all creatures, including humans, live in peace and harmony.
