Deontology Private

1
Beginning


After speaking of the relation of this to
Deontology Public, proceed thus—

You and all human beings besides. These
are the beings whose happiness is here in question: whose
happiness it is the object of these pages to promote. Say
rather all sensitive beings besides: for why should any part of
the sensitive creation be passed over with neglect. Not by
any means unintitled to your care are the animals
styled by you inferior with reference to the human.
For were they not entitled to it on what footing stands the
best title that could be made for the human: besides that
by occupying yourself in promoting their happiness you are led
to promote the happiness of the animals of the race to which
you yourself belong, and through theirs your own. Of this
connection you cannot but have some conception already:
to render it more particular, clearer, and stronger,will be among the objects of these
pages.

Make reference to
the Cruelty to Animals
Preventing Society.
