In order to write a article, we need the mind of a journalist.
A primary question. The opinionated question we want to be conveyed with evidence:
How about:
Should animal testing be banned and why?
No, it shouldn't be. I’m going to provide my take as to why animal testing is a concept worth keeping.
Before we begin, we must establish a foundation upon which we may build organized arguments. Here's a baseline I'd want to establish: "Anything, no matter how universally excellent it is, may be exploited." For example, if someone receives a new, functional ceiling fan as a present and then uses it to commit themselves, it is their fault. That doesn't mean that giving someone a ceiling fan to keep them cool is a terrible idea. The same may be said about animal testing.
Now, there are a few arguments against and for animal testing and here are two of the key points from which these arguments are structured:
- Morality and Effectiveness
Morality is one of the most contentious issues, but it quickly breaks apart when the opponent begins arguing from a more objective and practical perspective. While I may accept certain types of universal morality, such as what is commonly seen as moral/unethical, animal experimentation is not universally regarded as immoral. Harming animals for the goal of assisting humans in any way possible is not unethical. If anything, it's as moral as they come. Humans enjoy clinging to things and injecting their prejudice into everything, but let's get one thing straight: humans are the better species, and the universe revolves around us, not them. They can be utilized for us, as long as it is not for an unreasonable cause and is for the good of humanity.
Most of the time, effectiveness is determined by talent, yet humans and animals share comparable metabolisms and organs, and I believe humans aren't all that different from animals. This is the result of my investigation and study.
Another argument I've heard is that there are better methods, but none of them are specific. After researching alternatives, I feel they are extremely dangerous and have a considerably lower likelihood of success than animal testing. While most drug-related animal testing offer us around an 80% sense of how it will perform in people, alternatives have varied from 40% to 60%. That 20% might be the difference between someone's life and death. The bottom conclusion is that animal testing is the best approach and a wonderful principle, but it can be overused, which does not influence my point.
