Fighting for animal liberation and an end to speciesism
Can animals suffer? Debunking the philosophers who say no, from Descartes to William Lane Craig
Rene Descartes argued that animals could neither think nor feel due to their lack of a pineal gland, an idea not taken seriously now. But a modified version of this argument has recently been revived this time using the pre frontal cortex to argue that animals cant suffer. This film aims to debunk this claim and we talk to some of the leading scientists in the world to refute this claim.
