AB - This study intends to do a religious/philosophical and theological approach to the issue of “the life rights of animals”(so-called “animal rights”) arising in our society. A progressive and practical change regarding animal rights requires a new ethics based upon specific presuppositions of philosophy and religion, and focused on theological ethics particularly within Christian communities. Thus, this study focuses on the religious/philosophical and theological convictions of the way God deals with the world, and of the relationships of human beings and non-human creatures. This study focuses on the so-called process thought of Alfred N. Whitehead (1833-1947), which is a proper and reasonable world view on the relationship of God and the world, and of God and humankind, and on the relationships between human beings and non-human beings. Also, this study evaluates the very theological, ethical questions that Andrew Linzey’s animal theology is subject to, and at the same time, proposes process thought as a proper and readable reference for any religious/philosophical and theological reflections on Linzey’s animal theology. As the process-relational perspective puts emphasis upon the plausibility of animal theology and its ethical implications rooted in the basic values and interdependent relations of all beings, the overcoming of anthropocentrism, and the value and life right of non-human creatures, it is to be considered as a more proper reference/resource for responsible eco-life-centered practices.
