- This presentation by Professor Tom Regan (North Carolina State University, USA) was recorded at the University of Heidelberg in Germany on May 24, 2006.
Philosopher Tom Regan begins by contrasting the fact that many people make a firm distinction between the animals they live with (cats and dogs, for example) and other animals. He explains how it is that Animal Rights Advocates (ARAs) extend the same sense of compassion and respect that they feel for companion animals, on the one hand, to the other animals who routinely are turned into food, clothing, and the like, on the other. Not all ARAs, he explains, arrive at this destination in the same way. In particular, some need to be convinced; some need a logical argument. In his presentation, Professor Regan accepts this challenge and invites others to consider the main factual and moral questions whose answers inform the conviction that animals have rights.
Love him and love this!
One of my most favourite videos ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
RIP DR TOM REGAN 🙁
Thank you for sharing 😚
Веган много, их большинство
Most of the time I feel like nothing will ever change, because human beings are inherently cruel, and most of us incredibly stupid. I am so glad that people like Tom Regan exist though, he gives me hope.
RIP maestro
Thank you very much for uploading this presentation!!
And thank you, Tom Regan, for inviting us in this sensible, sensitive, uplifting and loving way.
Animals never belonged to us. Animals deserve our veganism. That's just the first step.
Rest in peace 🍀
Great lecture, thanks for uploading.
Some great takeaways:
Rights place limitations on other people's freedoms, that's their function in the moral sphere. Your rights limit my freedom and my rights limit your freedom. In this sense we can think of rights as invisible "no trespassing" signs which means you may want to but morally you're not free to invade my body, you may want to but morally you're not free to injure me or to crush my organs or to blind me or to break my arms, in case you haven't noticed, there's somebody here, this body belongs to somebody, no trespassing.
When it comes to my life, you're not at liberty to take it, it's not yours. It happens to belong to somebody, it's mines. And the same in your case too. I'm not at liberty to take yours.
And the same is true when it comes to freedom, you are not at liberty to take mine and I'm not at liberty to take yours.
This is the essence of the demand for animal rights!
The TH-cam algo must be doing something right - it recommended this video to me.
I'm a huge fan of Tom Regan's work! Thanks for uploading!
That cat moment turned me vegan in my heart in 1996

Wow, he's good.
I need to see/have this show of the cat being killed for outreach.
Anyone has any traces of the show he speaks of?
mir ging es so als ich einen Teil einer Dokumentation sah in dem ein lebender Fisch zur Hälfte in fett gebraten wurde. .. Damit er total frisch ist. ..
Weißt Du, was das für eine Doku war und wo man die sehen kann?
