The act of clubbing seals is contrary to the right for the reason of that it is harming the beautiful creation and is maliciousl. Seals have also performed no damage to the human beings whatsoever, thus there is no reason at all for such cruelty. Clubbing seals is one of the cruelest acts that could be performed. Animals have rights, as well as people. Obviously, they do not have equal rights as people because people are created separate from animals, but seals still own the unalienable right to be preserved and protected from all forms of cruelty. In Murder on the Orient Express, some of the morals are whether it was right to murder Samuel E. Ratchett, and if it was right for Poirot to let the murderers go. It was not right to murder Ratchett, even though he was a murderer. It was also not right for Poirot to let the murderers go, just because Ratchett deserved it.
It was not just for the passengers to murder Ratchett, even though he murdered the Armstrong baby, because even though many of the passengers were close to the family and had a motive, it is still not right to repay evil with evil. For example, Princess Dragomiroff was close with Sonia Armstrong's mother and Sonia was her goddaughter. However, though there was a motive for wanting revenge on Ratchett, Scripture says from Romans 12:17, "Do not repay anyone evil for evil. Be careful to do what is right in the eyes of everyone." 1 Peter 3:9 also states, "Do not repay evil with evil or insult with insult. On the contrary, repay evil with blessing, because to this you were called so that you may inherit a blessing.
