1, stewardship is the way of protecting and preserving and looking after our planet for God. ( because God told Adam & Eve to take responsibility for the creation)
2, Genitcally modified animals are wrong but only if we dont get something out of the reasearch e.g. a cure for a disease.
3, Animals used in sport is ok but only if the animal doesnt get maimed or killed because some animals enjoy doing sport like grey hounds but some get injured for the fun of us humans and this is morally wrong.
4, Animals deserve some rights because without them people can treat them as well or as badly as they want which isnt a good thing as people could do all sorts to an animal and get away with it.

5, Reincarnation is what Buddists and Hindus believe happens when a family member passes away and they (might be reborn by) becoming and animal. ( if they had bad karma) this is why These religions are against cruelty to animals because they think if you are you could be killing or hurting a member of their family.

6, Hindus believe that animals are equal to us humans but that some are more sacred then others like a cow for instance. and they also blieve in karma, this is when if you do something bad it will come back to haunt you and the same if you do something good but it will reward you.

7, I believe that jewish Kosher meat is wrong, because the jews believe that it is killing the animal humainly. but it isnt because it experiences a slow and painfull death.

8,the Muslim view of Halal meat is that the animal is killed by the animal having its kneck slit and the blood being left to pour out. they see this as an humaine way of killing the animal.

9, The fur trade is morally wrong because of the way the traders kill and strip the animals of their fur. As some of them smash the animals head against something hard then get the fur, and some poeple dont even bother killing the animal and just strip them of their dignity wilst still alive, then leave them to die. this is why it is morally wrong.

10, My view on the ivory trade is that it is morally wrong because to recieve the ivory you have to kill the animal, this means that some animals are left without any chance of survival. e.g when an elephants mother is slaughtered for its ivory, its baby is left to try and survive on what ever it can find and this is wrong because 9 times out of 10 the baby will die in a matter of days.

11, some times you cant help the extinction of animals because the animal may have died out because its species couldn’t evolve fats enough, but nowadays extinction is mainly caused by people killing the animal for fur, ivory or meat which i think is wrong because sooner or later there will be none of the species of animal left due to our greed and needs.

12, Conservation is good because it aims to keep endangered animals alive and breed them so that they will no longer live in fear of becoming extinct. also it would be showing good stewardship and we would be living in harmony with the animal world as we would be helping them as they will be helping us.

13, animal charities are a good way of showing stewardship towards animals because this will enable people to set up conservation sites to preserve and look after endangerd animals.

14, my views on co-existing with animals are:
it is a very good thing because animals would show more respect for us if we showed and equal amount of respect for them.
we could share a relationship with an animal and bond with them, this would entail looking after them and caring for them as of they were a human being.

I hAVE CORRECTED SPELLINGS ONLY AND ADDED ONE OR TWO COMMENTS. yOU HAVE UNDERSTAOOD IT ALL WELL.

1 Stewardship is humans looking after and saving the animals. Christians do this because it says so in the Bible

2 I think Genetically modified animals is wrong because it causes unnecassary harm to them for no reason. For example recently they made some cats glow in the dark and claimed it would help cancer which is rubbish. Many relegions would have a problem with it as they believe they should be left as God made them.

3 I and relligous believers dont have a problem with animals being used in sport and the animals enjoys it. Although it is when the animalgets too old or ingured is the problem because their owners abanon them for becuase they wont make them money anymore, this happens to greyhounds after they are too old to race.

4 It is a hard question because if you gave them rights it would make them be like humans which many people would argue. They should be protected and preserved so should be given some rights.

5 Reincarnation is what hindus and buddhists believe in. It in

Sorry pressed wrong button

It is when humans after they die turn into animals. That is why they dont eat meat because you could be eating a reletive like their mum.

6 Hinduas believe in reincarnation.Also a cow is sacred in India and other hindu countries. It is a god and they are allowed to be free, walking in the streets!

7 I think it is wrong becuase it causes more pain to the animal than it does if you eletrocuted it. I dotn see whats wrong with that.

8 They are not allowed to eat anything to do with animals or blood because it says so in the Qu’ran. They have to treat animals with respect.

9 I think the fur trade is wrong because it kills off different breeds of rare animals becuase they only want their fur. now there is fake fur it is now unneeded.

10 I think the Ivory trade is also wrong, because of it elephants have almost been wiped out! I saw a picture of a car covered in ivy, what a joke. An inercent animal died for that!

11 I think it is bad because we should co exist with animals not wiped them all out! We need to raise awarness of the amount of animals that have been wiped out

12 We should encourage conservation because it is importent that we live with the animals, that would make us good stewards and would respect the bible.

13 I think they are good because they raise money to protect creatures that are important to the world and eco systems. We should save every remaining animal on this earth!

14 We need to coexist becuase it is as importance for humans as it is for animals. We need to live side by side and make sure we help each other. We need to help all animals because they cant help themsleves and they need to survive

1 Stewardship is when humans look after animals, Christians do this becuase it says so in the Bible.

2 Genetically modified animals is wrong becuase it causes unnecassry harm and is against Gods will. i HEARD SOME cats had to glow in the dark to test cancer and it didnt come to anything

3 Me and the religions have no problem with animals being used in sport in less they are being harmed like in bear fight. The problem is when people abanoned the animals because they no longer make them money. This is cruel.

4 Animals do deserve rights but it is tricky because we would then think of them as humans which people would argue. We should have some rules about saving them thought and protecting them

5 Reincaration is believed by buddhists and hindus that when humans die they turn in animals.
