Sažetak

This paper was incentivised by the book The Future of Life (2003) by sociobiologist Edward O. Wilson, in which he – when addressing Abrahamic religions (Judaism, Christianity, Islam, including, of course, Bahaism and Rastafarianism, which he did not mention), and regarding the environmental ethics in accordance with the belief in the sanctity of Earth and perception of nature as God’s work – points out, inter alia, Protestant denominations as being active in the protection of nature and the concept of animal rights. Wilson thereby elaborates, in particular, the Noah Congregation from the US; I would like to use this opportunity to also include Christa Blanke, former Lutheran woman vicar, as well as Andrew Linzey. The work of Andrew Linzey, Anglican priest, theologian, the world’s first Professor of Animal Ethics - in terms of animal theology was promoted in Croatia by Željka Bišćan (Nova Arka Educational Centre - institution for adult education), Master in Catholic Dogmatic Theology and years-long lecturer of the elective course Theological Deliberations of Zoology at the Institute for Theological Culture at the Catholic Faculty of Theology of the University of Zagreb.
