Articles

The following are different articles pertaining to my topic of animal rights:


Title: Green option to turn vegetarian?
Pinner, Annette. “Green option to turn vegetarian?” Farmers Weekly 146.21 (2007): 12-12. Academic Search Premier. EBSCOhost. Helmke Lib., Ft. Wayne, IN. 21 October 2007 <http://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&db=aph&AN=25487422&loginpage=Login.asp&site=ehost-live&scope=site>

I like this article, because it not only advocates a vegetarian diet, giving several sound reasons as to why that would be a good thing to do, such as it is ethical and it is a clinically healthy diet. It also focuses on the green aspect of farming and raising animals. This article covers many of the points I wish to discuss in my research paper.


Title: All We Can Eat?
Prusak, Bernard G. “All We Can Eat.” Commonweal 134.13 (2007): 10-13 Academic Search Premier. EBSCOhost. Helmke Lib., Ft. Wayne, IN. 21 October 2007 <http://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&db=aph&AN=25784830&loginpage=Login.asp&site=ehost-live&scope=site>


This article touches on the theological implications of vegetarianism on man. The article also discusses the ethical side of vegetarianism, further supporting my original argument.


Title: Does Ethical Meat Eating Maximize Utility?
Schedler, George. “Does Ethical Meat Eating Maximize Utility?” Social Theory & Practice 31.4 (2005): 499-511. Academic Search Premier. EBSCOhost. Helmke Lib., Ft. Wayne, IN. 21 October 2007 <http://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&db=aph&AN=18789711&loginpage=Login.asp&site=ehost-live&scope=site>

This article is all about the ethical side of vegetarianism and animal rights. It goes into all the different issues revolving around the slaughter of animals for human consumption. This is also another point to support my main thesis.

Oooo! Vegetarian stuff! I used to not eat red meat. Why did that change? Haha, cuz free food on campus meant me not being picky. I love your topic. I think it's great.

Sounds like a great topic that I will enjoy hering about since both sides of the argument have been substantiated significantly.

because I'm such a nice guy, I created a little lecture just with you in mind about a cool database for this topic:
