    Can you answer the question, “If you had to choose between saving one human and one hundred rats,which would you choose?” The answer to your questions is related to this one.

      It’s not related because that choice is not what is happening. You don’t have one button that kills/saves rats and one that kills/saves a human.

      What is happening is that we have deemed it morall ok to medically experiment on non-human animals but not on humans.

        It’s absolutely related. Animal testing has indirectly saved countless lives. I think you’re refusing to answer because it doesn’t help your argument.

          What argument? I haven’t made an argument, I want to know your position and what it is about humans that makes them more valuable than non-human animals.

            You absolutely have made an argument and you continue to. You’re saying animal testing is morally indefensible despite any outcome it’s ever produced
