Re: your stance on the testing of animals:
Although it is quite true that animals ARE nescessary to test compound that may be potentially dangerous to humans, it is also true that sophisticated computers and lab equipment have the potential to simulate these tests, if only on simpler animals. A system which preforms compound tests on frogs, I believe, already exists. Also, we must consider the importance of the compoud that we test- is the compound we are testing important enough to kill a life, whether Homo sapiens or any other? Afte
r all, we must remember that the fictional character "Dr. Frankenstien" was a scientist also, who also believed he was advanceing the human cause.
