How should we treat animals?

TheHarbingerOfDoom
Kindly, but like animals not like they are people. The way some people talk to their dogs is just ridiculous
Yurinclez2

I kill mosquitos and flies indiscriminately

I eat chicken, fish, cows

The things I never do to cats, dogs, hamsters

And i would never want to get close to snakes, wasps, alligators, crocodiles, centipedes...

Yes this is a double standard..but i don't care

Depends on what animals
BraveRiddle

When answering, relate it to animal testing and stuff like that

Please be as philosophical as possible

Or theological

We definitely should not test on animals

Are you a christian

Yes
M1m1c15
Why
BraveRiddle

If we test medicine on a rat, that does not mean that it would work on humans as their bodies work differently. Nevertheless, if we do it on a human, it is different because (from a Christian point of view) we are made in God's image and animals are not. Interesting question.

Animals are made by God, everything is.

Difference is, we are made in God's image

M1m1c15
We simply value animal lives less
BraveRiddle

Yeah, (for argument's sake) we can't just test it on a human because if it goes wrong, then they might die. Whereas many people do not like rats as they are dirty, unclean, and unhygienic, people would not mind if they die. But, again, their bodies work differently from a human's...

Well they don’t test medicine on rats
