Using Animals in Medical Research
- According to the Bible God created the
world, manking was created to populate
it, and animals were created for the use
of mankind. But animal rights issues are

believe that they don't
meaning that God
created us as superiour
to them. Some people
argue that animals are
here for our use.
- Christianity teaches that we
should treat animals with
kindness but that they can be
used to benefit mankind as long

organisations that campaign for
grater compassion to be shown to
animals, such as the group
Catholic Concern for Animals.
