How should animals be treated, from a Gospel perspective?

I understand, for example, that they do not have souls like we do and that; with the exception of cats, panda bears and sloths; animals are part of God's creation. Is it ethical to eat them? And if so, how should we handle the slaughter process?

Is it ethical to keep them as pets or should they all be resigned to the cruel but functional wilds?

3 Hail Marys, then throw that fucker in the microwave

Preferably with respect in case superior aliens judge us by how we treat lower lifeforms

I mean, you can't eat *every* animal, not even if you're chinese.

>>5330

While its a possibility, I'd be a lot more concerned with how the Lord will judge us based on this. I still don't know. I do think they are here to provide for us, that is part of them fulfilling the measure of their creation, but I think many of us are cruel towards them.

and gnats ;^)

> Is it ethical to eat them?

Yes. This world serves humanity, not humanity this world.

Environmentalism is idolatry.

>how should we handle the slaughter process?

No cruelty. But it is just reality that animals will suffer if you are hunting ie.

But we ain't to take joy in this.

>Is it ethical to keep them as pets or should they all be resigned to the cruel but functional wilds?

We are meant to use animals, this is part of their divine function.

I find everything in your post pretty agreeable, and this is, as of yet, how I understand it as well. I am intrigued by your comment here though, that environmentalism is idolatry.

How so?

>How so?

I was referring to people like Greenpeace or others that are militantly devoting themselves towards the "protection" of some "nature" and that would even attack or harm other people over this.

Or just common people that obsess over their environment or their "ecological footprint" all the time.

I have seen this becoming a dangerous trend.

Same with Vegeterianism or the likes.

These new movements have started to replace religion for a while now in the life of the common man. All of them, also feminism ie.

It fulfills the parametres of religion imo. It causes a certain group feeling, makes you follow a moral code, declares certain acts "sin", declares certain individuals "enemy" and the only cause it serves is itself.

Environmentalism for instance only serves the environment and further environmentalism. Nothing else.

Anything that could help humans is rejected as harmful and taboo.

So saving forests is kosher, but encouraging people to actually visit and use them for wood or at least relaxation or whatever is taboo and declared harmful for the forest because it could disturb animals ie. Note that this serves only itself again, the animals are to be left alone because this is the rule, not to increase their use for us.

What kind of lunatics are you taking to represent environmentalism?
