I think animal testing is stupid and needs to stop. Anyone agree? I mean stop burning animals to 3rd degree burns and so on just to make tests! It's humane!!

Not sure. True that animal cruelty is always wrong, but what else will we test on? Humans? Plants? I'll see what others say.

Do you know anyone with diabetes

Or who has ever had to use antibiotics of any kind

Or anyone with asthma

Or cancer



For medical reasons? Yes .. for Nail varnish ? fuck no.



 

I think ensuring the well being and improving the quality of life of mankind is much, much more important than the lives of animals, so yes, I think it's right to do tests on animals.

As if it's right to do those tests by the cosmetic industry (in contrast to the scientific/medical research, where I'm in full support), I dunno. Maybe it's wrong, but I don't mind much if they do it

There's got to be other methods. I mean humans are animals too!

We kill animals by the millions for food and keep them in horrible living conditions whilst pumping them full of drugs anyway. I doubt that animal testing is anyworse aslong as its done for medical research.

Those people are alive and as healthy as they are largely because of medical breakthroughs that came about as a result of animal testing. When we find a cure for cancer, it will be through animal testing. When we figure out how to heal nerve damage, it will be through animal testing. When we figure out how to make a pill that will cure a person of depression, or help prevent the risk of birth defects, or cure acne, or pretty much anything in medical science, it will be beause of animal testing.

Yes, I think animal testing is right. It sucks for them, but I place value on human life that is much higher than the value I place on the life of other animals.

Food is different! We eat them, animals eat other animals. Testing is not what god inteded for us to do. Just because we have more power than these poor creatures doesn't mean we can bully them and hurt them.

Maybe it can be done on animals that are dying or aren't expected to live much long, but to take healthy living animals and do brutal tortures on them is wrong. I mean how would a human like it if another species evolved greater than us and took us away and tested on us?

I also believe we should cut back on the meat we eat, quit eating Cod to let them repopulate, stop eating Lamb (how could you!) and rabbit, vennison, duck ect ... Beef, Pork, Chicken and Turkey is more than enough variety ...
