THIS PAPER IS DUE TODAY, BY 7 P.M. MUST BE 600 WORDSTom Regan (1985) and Peter Singer (1989) agree that we have moral responsibilities toward animals, but disagree about the best approach to animal ethics.What basic conclusions do they agree about (be specific)?How would you explain the basic difference in their approach? Specifically, explain how Singer’s argument represents a utilitarian view, referring to John Stuart Mill’s Utilitarianism for the basic framework of a utilitarian theory of morality. In what way is Regan’s view a non-utilitarian one? Name at least one argument he makes that is non-utilitarian, and compare it with an argument from Singer that is utilitarian. (Note: the aim in this discussion is to unpack the utilitarian approach to ethics, not simply to discuss our responsibilities toward animals.) Finally, share your responses to either or both of the arguments and any of the other material on animal ethics from this week. THIS PAPER IS DUE TODAY BY 7 P.M. MUST BE 600 WORDS
