The final say? Isn’t that a bold statement?
What exactly have we learned from their consept of correctness regarding the wearing of furs ?
There is nothing accurate, noble, scientific, or factual that the animal rights activists have actually taught the world.
Moreover, animal rights organizations have done nothing to help animals. The money they collect is mostly used to spread more misinformation throughout the world, which to some degree has taken the focus away from the real issues regarding environmental damage which threatens both animals and humans. Habitat loss remains the largest problem regarding extinction. They inadvertently promote industrial pollutants by asking people not to buy any winter wear made from natural animal products. Goose and duck down coats also involve the killing of the animal, wool products are wrong according to animal rights because of the stress of shearing the animal.
The only products they endorse for warmth are petroleum based non-biodegradable fabrics. The paper and pamphlets they mail and distribute causes water pollution, since the paper and pulp industry is the 3rd largest contributor to water pollution.
When you subscribe to the notion that animals have rights like humans or are equal to humans you are adopting a very atheistic, anti-civil, and distorted narrative. The natural sustainable resource that animals and animal byproducts such as fur, has been provided to mankind including, nutrition has been invaluable to the development of civilization. Throughout history fur has allowed humans to live in otherwise inhospitable climates.
Unbelievable advancements have been made in all categories. The use of oils, feathers, chemicals. The life saving developement of many drugs from animals, such as insulin can not be denied.
Fur is beautiful natural and makes people feel good. Conclusion – A Little Less Conversation
Interesting to note with all the discoveries in technology and science, to date nothing is as efficient in keeping people warm as nature. Natural fur and natural goose or duck down have remained the choice to battle the cold for thousands of years and are still are unbeatable.
Besides this, I can’t think of one good thing that has come from the animal rights perspective, other than enriching these organizations.

The spiritual and religious argument regarding animal use
Humans are different from animals
Make no mistake about it, humans are beyond any comparison to all other living things. Although (God) created humans with many physical similarities, particularly to mammals, we cannot assume equivalence. Yes, both have many physical likeness but that is where any likeness ends.
Because of the visual resemblance, there may be a tendency for some to consider animals on a similar level with humans. The Torah (Old Testament) distinctly directs us not to get caught up by this dangerous misconception. This way of thinking can lead people on a very dangerous mindset. Of course animals are a valuable, beloved, and useful part of our lives, but we must not be seduced to believing that animals are more than they are.
By adopting the idea that animals have “rights” we are opening a discussion that is totally hypocritical and invalidates it’s own point, right from the start. On one hand by saying animals have rights like us, we are minimizing ourselves in our own eyes and any importance of humans having rights. On the other hand by using the same argument, we are over estimating ourselves. Equally important, when we assert that we know what constitutes a quality life for an animal we are taking God, Who created everything, out of the equation.
Who are we to define what constitutes a quality life for an animal?
The idea of trying to equate animals to humans must be, in my humble opinion, an egregious insult to the Creator, in addition it is a rejection of the the gift of the intellect given to Man and also even a form of idol worship.
Purpose
Humans are the only living beings endowed with a mission. At the onset of the creation of Mankind, Hashem clearly states his role with respect to the animal kingdom. “And God said, “Let us make man in our image, after our likeness, and they shall rule over the fish of the sea and over the fowl of the heaven and over the animals and over all the earth and over all the creeping things that creep upon the earth.” Geneses 1, 26Humans are the only living beings endowed with a mission.

Unlike humans, animal have no purpose other than following their desires for survival. Their behavior is similar to a computer. It is determined by how the operating system has been “programmed”. As proof, just watch animals in their natural environment; A spider must build a web, similarly a beaver must build a dam, a bird builds a nest, and salmon swim upstream to spawn. Animals just do as they are programmed. Yes with the human intervention of a reward and punishment system, some animals can be trained, but that too is limited and actually just another form of programming with human intervention.
Human qualities / potential
Human beings have been given the most beautiful combination of Godly qualities. For example the ability to ability to question and reason, to rationalize, to learn and grow. The characteristic to be creative for the sake of expression. People can self improve and beautify their environment, they can go against their physical / animal drives when it is determined for the greater good. Above all, like the Ultimate Giver, God, humans have been given the unselfish ability to give. Just for the sake of giving. Read the entire article
