"What are we to say of a theology which has so proceeded on the
basis of a moral neglet of God's creatures?" asks Andrew Linzey. In
Animal Theology, he seeks ways in which doctrine can help morally
motivated Christians to perceive meaning in animal suffering. In
Linzey's view, animal rights is synonymous with animal theology.
Linzey argues that historical theology, creatively defined, must
reject humanocentricity. Questioning the assumption that if
theology is to speak on this issue, "it must only do so on the side
of the oppressors," Linzey investigates not only the abstractions
of theory, but also the realities of hunting, animal
experimentation, and genetic engineering. His is a pioneering,
vital, and unequivocally Christian voice advocating on behalf of
the countless creatures who share our world and our lives but
cannot speak for themselves.
