Just a step away from animal rights

Article Abstract:

There is a gradual move away from seeing human beings as the centre of the moral world and the only thing of any real importance, according to Peter Singer, professor of philosophy and deputy director of the Centre for Human Bioethics at Monash University, Melbourne, Australia. People are now able to separate ethical views from religion, and there is growing awareness of the need to consider other creatures in the biosphere. There is a clear move towards a non-religious, humane, compassionate ethic in many societies.

The tale of Diana's revenge

Article Abstract:

The recent television interview with the Princess of Wales, in which she spoke very openly about her feelings, will have a permanent impact on the British monarchy. She has shown that she will not be prepared to be pushed quietly to one side, and has shaken the establishment out of its blind self-confidence. She has broken the media fantasy of her as a fairytale princess, and has shown that she is a strong woman who enjoys the normal pursuits of modern life.
