Disclaimer: This is purely the author's view. Both Coin neither agrees to nor share the view of the author.
It is illegal to sell children. That follows from it being illegal to own children. Children are not property. We are not owners, we are guardians.
No living being should be able to own another.
Or be allowed to sell or buy another.
Owning another being is slavery, whether human or animal.
Human and animal slavery are rooted in the Bible.
The Bible codifies the bigotry, ignorance, and worldviews of a backward tribe of goat herders who lived 2,500 years ago. To seriously give credence to it's applicability today is bizarre, and irrational.
In the fight to end human slavery, the Bible was the primary authority offered by slavers to justify the barbarous practice.
Just as human slavery was defeated, so too can animal slavery be defeated. It will take much longer to achieve, but the enemy is the same: Humans who are greedy, cruel, inhumane, and oblivious to the suffering of others.
They continue to use the Bible to justify not only animal slavery, but exploitation, cruelty, and murder, as well.
Any system that tolerates slavery is inherently evil.
Any religion that condones slavery should be summarily rejected.
Animals should be regarded in law in the way we regard children.
To treat them otherwise is to enslave them.
