A simple answer to your question as you stated it is "A person can believe anything they want." If a person chooses to... they can believe the moon is made of Cheese and that stars are pretty Christmas lights on the mantel of God. However, that doesn't make it so. Maybe, the question you really want answered could be stated another way, something like... Isn't it a moral contradiction to believe in the rights of animals while ignoring the rights of unborn human babies. Most everyone agrees that murder (unjustified killing), is morally wrong. But, abortion is murder only if you accept that a fetus is a "person", rather than a thing or "non-person". When one defines a fetus as a thing, and an animal as a living creature, then the fetus has a lower status. Kind of like a chair and a little fuzzy-wuzzy kitty cat. Which one are you going to choose to save in a fire? Which one deserves more moral consideration? p.s. I am not saying I agree with either side of this issue, I am simple trying to answer the question.

Some people have psychologically conditioned responses to the concept of believing. Some people believe things simply because it was presented to them by individuals whom they trusted. Most of the people in the world are followers whose intelligence can be skillfully manipulated by shrewd leaders who can have them crucify, terrorize, enslave and exterminate others. Sometimes it is only when a rational person can see through the astuteness of the perceptive mind that believing is truly as a result of seeing.
