20.500.12556/DKUM-46013 PRIMERJALNA ANALIZA ODNOSA DO ŽIVALI V SVETOVNIH RELIGIJAH COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF ATTITUDES TOWARDS ANIMALS IN WORLD RELIGIONS V diplomski nalogi smo predstavili odnos do živali v svetovnih religijah. Vključili smo hinduizem, budizem, judaizem, krščanstvo in islam. Cilji so bili ugotoviti osnovni odnos do živali, simboliko živali, izkoriščanje živali za prehrano ljudi in odnos do poskusov na živalih. Analizo smo opravili s pomočjo domače in tuje strokovne literature. Analiza je pokazala, da je odnos do živali v vseh obravnavanih religijah v nekaterih pogledih zelo podoben. Izstopa nadrejenost človeka v odnosu do živali, saj vse obravnavane religije priznavajo človeku višji status od živali. To se jasno kaže v ugotovitvi, da nobena izmed obravnavanih religij ne nasprotuje poskusom na živalih, kadar je njihov namen izboljšanje zdravja ljudi, oziroma kadar gre za dobrobit človeštva. Uporaba posameznih živalskih vrst kot verskih simbolov je značilna za vse obravnavane religije, hkrati pa smo ugotovili, da je živalska simbolika mnogo obširnejša in vplivnejša v starejših religijah, kot sta Hinduizem in Budizem. Zanimivo je, da imata prav ti dve tudi najvišji odstotek vegetarijancev, kar bi lahko deloma povezali z večjim pomenom čaščenja živali, deloma pa tudi z doktrino o temeljni enotnosti narave in medsebojni tesni povezanosti človeka in njegovega naravnega okolja. Within this diploma thesis, we presented the attitudes towards animals in world religions. Our research included Hinduism, Buddhism, Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. The aims were to find out the basic attitudes towards animals, animal symbolism, the exploitation of animals for human consumption, and the attitudes towards animal experiments. The analysis was conducted with the help of Slovenian as well as foreign academic literature. The analysis showed that the attitudes towards animals are in some respects very similar in all religions considered in our research. What stands out is the superiority of a human in the relationship with an animal, since all religions discussed in this thesis acknowledge humans having higher status than animals. This can clearly be seen in the finding that none of religions discussed oppose animal experiments in the case when their purpose is the improvement of human health, or when human well-being is considered. The use of specific animal species as religious symbols is a characteristic of all religions discussed, moreover, we found out that animal symbolism is much wider and more powerful in older religions, such as Hinduism and Buddhism. It is interesting that these particular two also have the highest percentage of vegetarians, which could partly be connected to the increased importance of worshipping animals, and partly to the doctrine of fundamental unity of the nature and reciprocal close linkage between a human and his natural environment.
