I would like to start with a simple but true statement: we are all animals. To some this might seem ridiculous, but it is actually the truth, whether you like it or not. What is the difference between us and other creatures? Is it our ability to think abstractly, to speak, or to walk with a straight back? What is it that gives us the right to torture poor, innocent animals just for the sake of our own benefits? The answer is simple: it is our eternal need to be beautiful and healthy. We are selfish monsters who kill our best animal friends. Yes, in recent decades there has been a serious debate about the use of animals in medicine and product testing, but it should not be called a debate, since only one side is true and it must be known by citizens. all people: and this side of the debate is called: enough violence! “Animal testing saves lives”, “Animal testing prolongs youth”, “Animal testing keeps us healthy forever” and many other similar slogans that people hear on TV or read in newspapers. In teenage jargon it would be called “blah…blah…blah…” or just a simple lie in normal language that we shouldn't all believe. Are you wondering why? First of all, many of us have heard the word vivisection, although it would be much better if no one knew what it was. Vivisection is a real representative of something evil, it is a real horror. At first glance the word itself sounds very scientific and academic, so it makes a good impression, but if we look deeper… We will see that this term will have to be avoided for the rest of our lives. With its cruelty, vivisection beats all other ways of using animals. The butcher or even the furrier would never throw a liquid into the eyes of animals, which would... middle of paper... don't do that, we won't be able to look into the eyes of our children. eyes and tell them that animals are our best friends, because that would be a blatant lie.
