Session #10 - Are we all evil? Peter Singer's thought experiment

“If possessing a higher degree of intelligence does not entitle one human to use another for his or her own ends, how can it entitle humans to exploit non-humans?”
Peter Singer

We have a new twist on utilitarianism, with Peter Singer and his thought provoking views. Not only has he an interesting thought experiment, he is also the most convincing advocate for animal rights.
