Document Summary

Draws all living beings into the circle of our moral community. Reflection of ecological community and ecocentric or ecospiritual preception. All beings are interrelated, interdependent and of the same origin. Cosmos is a communion of subjects, not a collection of objects created for our own use. Only that which we regard as sacred is secure and our reverence must be total or it is not secure at all. Lead us to discover a diversity of unaddressed issues. A combination of economic, ecological, and ethical considerations enable us to more clearly delineate what kinds of animal usage are acceptable, which should be prohibited, and which should be reformed. A holistic or multifactorial paradigm is needed in the many areas of animal protection where consideration of animals from an economic perspective is acceptable. Until industrial agriculture happened, livestock played a lot of roles in the economy of rural communities. Can double in value per year because each animal has.
