so who or what was supposed to suffer the undesired effects of the medication that YOU needed or wanted for you? does that living creature also suffer the same symptoms as you and also needed the medication for some reason?
i am not understanding where all our superiority and entitlement come from? what makes us so great that other living creatures have to sacrifice on a daily basis for us? |
This was pretty uncalled for, IMO! If it werent for animal testing, a lot of human diseases would not be understood or cured. Alot of testing is done on humans as well. This particular product that I took was not tested nor FDA tested(found that out later) and has caused damage to those who only used it under the guise that it was "natural", "homeopathic","a safe alternative" etc. If there had been one warning on what this product might do in the box in the tiniest lettering, I would not have used it. So I believe that its better to be safe, by doing testing, than sorry, by believing in the hype of "all natural", "holistic", etc and therefore doesnt need testing.
And if we, as a human race, followed your way of thinking, we would still be back in the dark ages. Sounds like you do not like modern medicine nor see the benefits from it.I hate to break it to you, but alot of modern medicine has been developed using animal testing. This has nothing to do with superiority and entitlement unless you are Hitler.
