Pi shows discontent with how people spoke of zoo's being prisons for animals, versus the safe-havens he saw them as. He expresses their thoughts as "..not the way it is" (16). Here one might question that the zoo is a metaphor for religion and animals being humans. Animals have needs to happily survive such as food, water and shelter; humans basic needs for happy survival are hope and some sort of belief. Animals in the wild represent "un-saved souls" and those animals who live within the safety of the zoo represent "saved souls" who are promised love and eternal-care.
I can stop my personal attitudes or beliefs from getting in the way of working with children by respecting what they believe and what their attitudes are towards my belief. I have many ways of stopping myself from telling other people about ,my belief or boasting about it. I can try and join in with the group of children or staff and let my attitude or belief take its course in what they think of it but not fighting back in what I strongly believe is right. My main belief is Christianity, I go to church every Sunday. I have a belief that when a child gets older they have to be baptized but I wouldn’t let this enter the workplace because I would respect the child’s belief and what they think of Christianity.
Authenticity can be dependent on the individuals finding of faith and becoming true to oneself. The media takes a large role in supporting our beliefs and we do not form our own opinions but develops the opinion made by the news. Prior to my mother’s death, my own belief was within the cultural norm, following the norm was more valuable than being authentic, I thought. The argument was that a persons freedom and courage to act more valuable than the person’s devotion. For the past two years, since my mother’s death, have not been very interested in the church.
Author Stephen Gould nailed it on the head when he named his essay, “Nonmoral Nature.” His essay provokes our thoughts on nonhuman motivation. Since animals do not have a rationale backing up their actions, then they must act solely on motivation. One potential reasoning behind an animal’s motivation arises from the passion and love toward its own offspring (Gould 1209). This theory can be correlated to Nancy Kress’s short story, “Beggars in Spain.” In this story, a genetic break-through leaves the option open for parents to decide whether or not they want their children to be genetically modified to not need sleep. When considering what thoughts went through Roger Camden’s mind while choosing to have a sleepless daughter, is it particularly intriguing to connect his logic to animal instinct; It leaves us speculating whether he did so because it gave her an competitive upper-hard, or was it on the basis of true love to which he thought she would want this for herself.
My view on the world was a selfish view. I didn’t care about current events, I thought school was lame and figuring you out was lame too. I put on more of a front than I actually really, truly believed in my heart. At church and youth, I wanted to seem like one of those really great, Godly, Christian girls you see around the church but I wasn’t, so I faked it. In March 2013, our close friend was put in the hospital under a coma for an unknown illness.
It is sad though the way some animals are treated in zoos; I personally think the board of directors of a zoo should be personally held accountable for the well fare of the animals in their keeping. PRO'S Zoos nowadays are not marketed as places of entertainment - they are places of education. Most modern zoos have their main emphasis on conservation and education - the reason that so many schools take children to zoos is to teach them about nature, the environment, endangered species, and conservation. Far from encouraging bad treatment of animals, zoos provide a direct
This is wrong, because as humans we must respect hashem and not disobey his commandments. Also, all life is valuable because G-d created every creature on this planet as part of his divine plan. Therefore, he must decide when animals lives should end, because as humans we must not interfere in plan. Judaism teaches about the sanctity of life and that life is holy, therefore the preservation of life is important therefore ending an animals life would be wrong. This is showing that Jewish people should be vegetarians.
Are zoos good or bad for animals? Everybody try to know more about something, but talking about animals we can know more about their life going to a zoo because there’s lot of animals from different places in a same one. In a zoo we can observe and know a little bit more of their habitats and the ways that they can survive in other places, because they have to fight against weather, stress, food and territory. Zoos have exist from ancient and always have had the characteristics that I already describe or simply for entertainment. I agree with zoos because that’s a way to preserve the different species but sometimes animals are not in excellent conditions.
In conclusion, I would argue that zoos do not seem to help endangered species and keeping animals behind bars only for the sake of our entertainment is not quite fair. In my opinion, people must create nature reserves, where wild animals will be able to live in their natural environment. Источник:
