I take you to be making at least two related points and a less related one. The formal point would seem to be that all thoroughgoing accounts--religious and otherwise-- of the moral life necessarily say something important in each of these areas. The substantive one is that on these issues many of the world's religions say basically the same thing. I agree with the formal point. On these matters, I see no substantive difference among the Abrahamic religions of Judaism, Christianity and Islam at their best. There might be more of a difference with other religions. You are more than right when it comes to how we mistreat non-human living beings. I'm tempted to think that all of the Axial religions are guilty of this as charged. Thanks for writing!
