personally i dont like medical testing either, but here comes my lack of loyalty to humanity again! lol
cosmetic testing is so pointless, all it does is feed vanity in people at the cost of animals lives and happiness

Hmmm...
I'm against most testing, though if there was an animal who had cancer and was in great pain and was going to be put down anyway, why not test out the newest cancer treatment that hasn't been proven to work yet? What's the worst that could happen? I don't understand cosmetic testing besides shampoos, conditioner, acne treatment, etc. How do you test eye shadow and lipstic on an animal?

i still have issues with the medical side, i dont think that human life is sacred or superior and it shows such a lack of respect for our fellow creatures to have it acceptable to sacrifice them for us. we've lived this long without the medical advancements, so we're not losing anything by not testing on animals

I don't understand (I don't know if this is veering off topic or not) why we call things like houses and electronics and buildings and such not natural history. I mean, we are just as much animals as a bear and we call their dens that they dig natural history, houses are made by us dens are more or less usually made by bears! See what I mean? (now mate is going to prove me wrong, lol)

Yup. And metals and stuff are elements or compounds, so a long time ago before they were mixed up by machines and stuff they were just a part of the Earth. The only things that I think are unnatural are all those gasses released into the atmosphere by factories and stuff. Waste.
