i know that a lot of people think if it's homeopathic, natural, then it is somehow a safe alternative. this really isn't the case, and the marketers understand that's what people think. and therefore that's why they market it that way. feeding on people's lack of awareness.
just because we have benefited from something doesn't make it right. all kinds of tests used to be done on slaves, jews, orphans, etc.. it wasn't right, and it took a long time for people to realize it.
the society is very slow to learn. but one day, it will understand that it is not right to do tests on animals and that animals have rights just as we do. it is wrong to test on animals just because we can; for the sole purpose of benefiting our self-serving wants.
"And if we, as a human race, followed your way of thinking, we would still be back in the dark ages." actually, if we, as a human race, followed my way of thinking. animals would already have rights... |
Hopefully you will not be needing any surgery, diabetes treatment or a heart transplant(to name a few) or anything else that was tested on an animal before using it on humans because if you dont refuse these treatments you would be a hypocrit.
In a perfect world nobody would need medicine and neither would animals. There would be no disease. All bodies would be perfect. What do you think that veterinary medicine is tested on before it is approved to be used on our beloved pets? It wasnt tested on humans.
I am not trying to offend you, just trying to make you think about it. Alot of human and animal suffering has been cured due to animal and human testing.
But if you what to live back in the dark ages with the plagues, disease and no surgeries or medical options, be my guest. By the way, animal didnt have rights back then either.
I think this has gotten off track from the original post. With respect to the poster, I do believe that some testing needs to be done, be it food or medicine. Its just too easy to fool the public claiming "holistic" or "all natural". Besides, who would name their company GREEN TRIPE??LOL
Yuck!!
