摘要
本文针对人们对于吃牛羊肉而保护猫狗这一事件,对认定其行为是一种道德伪善的判断进行反驳。这一行为不是伪善,而是道德关怀的范围由人到动物的扩展。基于道德关怀的扩展而考虑人与动物的关系问题,则应注意与动物的过度亲密而忽视其自由权,残忍杀害动物而忽视其生存权等问题。人作为生物界最为高级的物种,有义务去维持和保护生物的多样性,将自身的道德关怀逐步扩展,以期达到人与动物间长久有效的和谐共存模式。
In view of the fact that people protect cats and dogs by eating beef and mutton, this article refutes the judgment that their behavior is a kind of moral hypocrisy, which is not hypocrisy. It is the expansion of the scope of moral care from man to animal. If the relationship between man and animal is considered based on the expansion of moral care, attention should be paid to excessive intimacy with animals and neglect of their right to freedom, People, as the most advanced species in the biological world, have the duty to maintain and protect biological diversity and gradually expand their own moral care. In order to achieve a long-term and effective harmonious coexistence between human and animals.
