hi hob -

although i'm broadly pro-vivisection (apart from for cosmetics and other non-essential items like viagra) the point of my posting was to illicit an explanation of the 'anti-vivisection but still uses medicines' position from someone, but on that score all i got was dee spouting angry platitudes.

as i see it, there's doublethink at the heart of the anti-vivsectionist mindset; most anti-vivsectionists seem to beleive that humans are just another animal and as such do not have the 'right' to use animals for their benefit. but surely by adopting a superior, paternalistic, even god-like attitude to animals and treating them as beings to be cared for rather than as something to eat and wear, humans are actually distancing themselves from the mass of animal life on the planet. other animals don't give two shits about each other. they kill each other in the most awful ways, often for fun rather than sustenance. i mean, is there a more cynical, selfish, arch-wanker of an animal on this earth than the house cat? a scowl at one end and a bared arese-hole at the other!

thanks for your thoughtful response though. more than i managed to get out of any of the anti-vivsectionists on HH!

peace love and meat
