the focus is on humans and we are far from having a well-founded position on animal ethics.\nAdded to this is the impression that taking sides on animal ethics and animal welfare issues tends to be ridiculed in humanist &#8216;circles&#8217; and that &#8216;true&#8217; humanism is concerned with the human condition.\nIn other words, animal ethics lies outside the core of our brand.   <br\/><br\/>In this Friday Salon, we want to explore various questions, such as whether animals have dignity, whether this dignity &#8211; like human dignity &#8211; can be weighed against other values, whether animals have moral rights, whether they need lawyers, and much more.<br\/><br\/>The fact that animals are allowed to be systematically tortured in a high-tech agricultural economy, that they are often not treated with dignity, that they have the status of &#8216;things&#8217; rather than living creatures under the law, calls for a humanism that broadens its focus.\nAfter an introduction to basic animal ethical positions by Dorothea Winter, we want to talk about the necessity of developing a humanistic animal ethical position.\nPerhaps this will also result in a new working context in which we can start working together on a humanistic animal ethics position.  <br\/><br\/><br\/><strong>Moderator<\/strong>: Katrin Raczynski (Humanistischer Verband Deutschlands &#8211;
