Why Animals Should Not Be Called Things
By Noah S.B. Williams
Animals should not be called things because they are beings, not things.
Shame on the people who call animals things.
If I could I would give the person who first called animals things a talking-to. I would not call animals things.
Think about this. If you loved someone, would you call them a thing? I wish no one had ever called animals things.
Why would you call your pet a thing?
A rug or something is a thing, but not an animal. He or she is not a thing! This is not funny, it's all true. I would not lie to you about this. It's not a joke.
Do not lie to me, either.
