    If yes, then this question is moot for your purposes.
    If no, then apparently the answer is that God made us superior to the rest of the animal kingdom and hence the size of our brains has allowed us to exploit this superiority to the best of our advantage, even if it's at the cost of the animal's well being.

    Gee, I never met a 'perfect' human like you before!
    Congratulation for having achieved that wondrous goal.

    woosif says: Oh dear queenie - you have to get out a bit more love.... nice that you care but really millions of children die every year if you have kids then surely you like it that they have their small pox, yellow fever innoculations! in africa the children still die of strains of it, without testing it thousands more will die each year! you need to think of the whole picutre... you eat meat but want kids to die um!

    Hartmut says: God has nothing to do with our human caused stupidities.
    And God has not made us 'Superior" to any other living thing.
    Do not believe what 'man-made' religions proclaims as "truth".
    They put a lot of silly stuff in their books or teaching - to exploit and control humans (women!) and animals for their own selfish purposes.

    melb_terror says: queenie, do i need to point out that the idea of using animals as test subjects is so ingrained in our culture that even a person like yourself refers to a test subject as a GUINIE PIG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i would also like to ask you what circumstance would constitute it being completly necessary? who gets to make that choice? and of course who says the testing being done now isn't necessary? your question invalidates itself, think about it!

    Hartmut says: Hm, and who might you be, to assume that you have a right to kill a little mouse?
    By that erroneous assumption, a Vastly Superior alien race would have the right to kill an inferior human.

    butterfly says: This reply is for all of you, well I do not eat meat, and I have 2 great pets. Why not test new things on criminals (USA) in exchange for not sending them to the death cells. Animals deserve to live more than they do, animals do not take life; if your so fond of experiments then why not have them done on your selves. I also only eat free range eggs, those poor hens live a life of hell, hey why don't some of you live that way for a week.

    Hartmut says: Some good points, but some animals do kill, not for food but, like us,
    for other reasons. There is a documentary where it shows a male chimp killing a baby chimp.

    woosif says: Ooh hard one, firstly if we had humans for trials then we wouldnt need animals BUT as we dont we have to try some drugs which can save thousands of peoples lives somehow - I know its a shame but do you know of any humans who want to be tested on? if you have travelled through india and africa and seen the humanity there you would understand more, my friend says this all the time but has only been to fiji and qld so understanding why its done would open so many peoples eyes as to why we use animals for testing for medial purposes, personally if for cosmetic purposes I think thats diabolical WE DONT need anymore cosmetics
