This book presents an authoritative and comprehensive survey of
human practice in relation to other animals, together with a
Christian ethical analysis building on the theological account of
animals which David Clough developed in On Animals Volume I:
Systematic Theology (2012). It argues that a Christian
understanding of other animals has radical implications for their
treatment by humans, with the human use and abuse of non-human
animals for food the most urgent immediate priority. Following an
introduction examining the task of theological ethics in relation
to non-human animals and the way it relates to other accounts of
animal ethics, this book surveys and assess the use humans make of
other animals for food, for clothing, for labour, as research
subjects, for sport and entertainment, as pets or companions, and
human impacts on wild animals. The result is both a
state-of-the-art account of what humans are doing to other animals,
and a persuasive argument that Christians in particular have strong
faith-based reasons to acknowledge the significance of the issues
raised and change their practice in response.
