It's that time again: Time to take our discussion online. For this round you need to initiate one discussion and comment on two. Remember to refer to the texts as sources as well as that which keeps your ideas focused.
Procrastination will not work this time, gang. You've got to start earlier on your entries. I cannot envision the alternative as even "basically fine" participation. There is nothing genuine about a discussion when most of the members arrive with five minutes left.
Also, the rules netiquette apply; so, keep the flamewars and trolling to yourself.
The texts:
- Braithwaite, Victoria. “Hooked on a Myth: Do Fish Feel Pain?” Los Angeles Times 8 Oct. 2006: M5. Print.
- Edlund, John R. “Letters to the Editor in Response to ‘A Change of Heart About Animals.’” 2003. Print.
- Edlund, John R. “Three Ways to Persuade.” 2011. Print.
- Rifkin, Jeremy. “A Change of Heart About Animals.” Editorial. Los Angeles Times 1 Sept. 2003: B15. Print
- Yong, Ed. “Of Primates and Personhood: Will According Rights and ‘Dignity’ to Nonhuman Organisms Halt Research?” Seed. Seed Magazine, 12 Dec. 2008. Web. 24 Jul. 2012.
when the only literature provided to us that is against animals' rights is a single letter to an editor, it makes me wonder if our teachings are unbiased. not saying that it was our teachers' intentions, but it does make me suspect.
