Animal testing

September 20, 2006 4:27pm CST
Is it right to test things on animals? Is there a difference between testing out medicine and perfume and such like products? If you’re against both, including medicine testing, would you volunteer to be tested on instead? Or what is the alternative?

Animal testing is something that is neccessary. Organizations that fight for animal rights have a tendancy to place animals higher than humans. This is simply not the case as animals are not really capable of rational thought. It must be stated that without animal testing we cannot make a hypothesis as to how humans will react to the same products. It helps to make sure that there are less violent human reactions to products that are put out on the market.

I think prisoners should be used as guinea pigs NOT animals, they don'[t use our stuff, why should they suffer for us

i hate it very very very much! animal testing is really unnecessary, more than 90% of products (i peak about medicine because cossmetic are always unnecessary)that pass animal testing have problem with human testing: it's crazy! i was an animalist (thanks to italian organization: LAV.org, animalisti italiani) also on my blog i speak about animal rights!
