Negative position: Animals have no moral rights. They lack any sense of morality. They lack an understanding of their duties tow

ard others. They lack the capacity for free moral judgment.
Philosophers such as Thomas Aquinas have taught that, while human beings engage in rational thought, animals act purely on instinct. Therefore, animals do not behave morally, and they are not members of a moral community.

Since animals have no concept of morality, they are not entitled to any rights—or indeed to any moral or legal consideration at all.

Which statement would be the best rebuttal to the argument in the passage?

Why would we believe something that was written centuries ago and has never been proven?

Thomas Aquinas argues that the interests of humans and animals should not be given equal consideration.

Modern scientific studies have identified animal species that may be able to engage in rational thought.

Domesticated animals respond to training directions and cues.
