Can medicines be developed safly without animal testing?
Some madicines can but it is very expensive to get the right equipment to test on. But then people say testing on animals is way more affective. I dissagree with this because animals react in different ways depending on each animal. I completely dissagree with animal testing and it should be stopped. Hope this helps
If animal abuse is illegal wouldn't animal testing be illegal?
No but it should be because testing on any animal is physical abuse. The animal has no choice in it and that should be illegal.

How does animal testing affect today's world?
Animal Testing is where doctors figure out new medicines, or treatments for humans but the way they test it is on animals. For example monkeys because monkeys are our closest animal "descendent". It affects todays world in a good way because if humans got tested then they would die if the treatment wasn't stable, but it is not fair for the millions of animals that have to die to save humans lives when most humans abuse animals anyway.
If you would like to see what scientists and doctors do you can go to Youtube and type in Cat on LSD. That is what scientists do to animals, cruel things such as that.

- Modern cloning techniques are based on animal tests
What are Christian views towards animal testing?
Christians believe that it is, in most cases, morally acceptable. God created humans to have dominion with responsibility toward animals, "26And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth." As long as the process is humane, there is absolutely no other options, and the research being done directly benefits humans or animals, it is, from a Christian standpoint, morally and ethically permissible.
(if you disagree, change the above text, do not write under it. Thank you)
I believe that god created the earth, animals and humans so that we could care for one another not so we can torture animals, i am sure that god would not want animals to be tortured just so that silly rich cows can have a new foundation.
Be fruitful and multiply and fill the earth and subdue it and have dominion over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the heavens and over every living thing that moves on the earth." -- (INDERJIT GILL)
Althoughh the bible says that humans should dominate over animals it doesnt give the right to kill or experimant on them, they have as much rights in life as us and although it is morally acceptable it doesnt make it right or forgivable if a animal should die because we want(don't need) cosmetics.it may be acceptable when needing medicain but it isn't acceptable when it causes death even cristains draw a line at death.
In God's initial idea of Eden there was no suffering, exploitation, or pain. In the book of Genesis, God says, "See, I have given you every plant yielding seed that is upon the face of all the Earth, and every tree with seed in its fruit; you shall have them for food." God envisioned a world where his people and all living things could live in peace and equally. But we have decided it is morally acceptable to experiment on and eat animals. As the bible states God says (according to the prophet Hosea), " I will make a covenant on behalf of Israel with the wild beasts, the birds of the air, and the things that creep on the Earth, and i will break every bow and sword and weapon of war and sweep them off the Earth, so that all (NOT JUST US SELFISH HUMANS!!!!) living creatures may lie down without living in fear." God gave us responsibility over the animals so we may care for them, not experiment, eat, exploit, or torture them. In no way would God approve of the treatment of animals in this way
What are your opinions on Animal Testing?
my opinion is that its very cruel and sad.people are too selfish and animals have to suffer for it.i dont know how people can judge wether or not things are safe by testing on animals because animals are so different to humans and half the reaction of the animals is the fear and stress.people should take on board the saying of treat others the way you want to be treated and stop testing on those poor inocent animals.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Those 'sad people' you are refuring to are actually trying to save someones life, i think many people in this world would not call that being selfish. In my opinion i would rather a animal die than a cancer paient. They also test on animals as some of them are very much like humans, that means if an animal has a positive reaction towards a drug we are one step closer to curing a disease and we would all rather an animal die during research than a human. You obviously haven't researched into the topic of what animals are are tested on and it isn't just make up or hair products. They are used to develop medicines for the sick and have they have actually helped find different treatments for cancer, strokes, and may other diseases so many people die from each year.
Anyone that 'thinks' that they are against animal testing is basically telling some cancer patients that they would rather them die then some rats.
i think what you have wrote is not only an insult towards scientists that are testing on animals for the right reasons but you are being very cruel on the poor people that are fighting for their life lying in a hospital bed some where with one chance of getting their life back by taking a drug that may have been tested on animals.
In conclusion, i think you are an idiot and should research into such a fragile subject before you try and shout your mouth off about your apparent 'opinion'.
Thank You.

It is a great thing if a company is observing a moratorium on animal testing. This means that they are not testing on animals.
How Can Animal testing stop and how you can help?
Buy products that don't test on animals, write letters to companies that do, saying politely that you would prefere that they didn't test on animals. Tell other people to do the same.
