There is no such thing as a 'nice' example of animal testing OR abortion. They are difficult choices that people make. They weigh the pros and cons of those choices and go forward with the choice that they deem to be the best one under the circumstances.



Of course not, but you have introduced abortion into this discussion and are using it to prove your point. your last sentence is a massive generalisation, not everyone who enters into abortion or animal testing weighs up the pros and cons. Dont know where you got that from.


OK, some people abort or use lab animals without any moral struggle whatsoever, but would you criminalize abortion because some women blithely use it? I'm guessing not.

As for making massive generalizations, does all animal testing involve vivisection or cruelty?

Perhaps we ought to put this another way. If a couple of rats sacrificed to science made it possible for a loved one of yours to be cured of a terrible disease, would your moral certainty be unbudged?

Are you a vegetarian? (I'm guessing so).
