Hey all,
For this week’s meeting of the Philosophy Club, we will be
discussing Peter Singer’s “Equality for Animals?” Peter Singer
argues that as long as we acknowledge that animals are
sentient beings who can suffer pain, we have a moral
obligation towards them just as much as we do to the human
community. He further argues that the superior mental ability
of humans is no grounds to exclude animals from equal
treatment.
We will meet Thursday, 10/20, from 7-8:30 PM in the South Lounge of the Reynolds Club.
The paper can be found at:

See you guys Thursday,
Josh Kim.
