Bakura Vessal Posted July 14, 2008 Report Share Posted July 14, 2008 every-thing we have today... all the things we take for granted are the wonders of modern science. Computers to cars, medicine to game consoles. But have scientists now GONE TO FAR... The are doing inhumane testing on animals and thinking up new ways to kill people. There is now even talk of bio-warfare..... So even though they are helping us. Have they gone to far...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2sick4u Posted July 15, 2008 Report Share Posted July 15, 2008 And your source is..?O.o".Since honestly, I think everyones happy being Nuclear.EDIT: Thought I'd reply to the topic regardless. Okay.every-thing we have today... all the things we take for granted are the wonders of modern science. Computers to cars' date=' medicine to game consoles. But have scientists now GONE TO FAR... The are doing inhumane testing on animals and thinking up new ways to kill people. There is now even talk of bio-warfare..... So even though they are helping us. Have they gone to far......[/quote']Now now, give mother nature some credit.We got here mostly based on other things doing, and if you think about it, technology probably has a more feeble grasp on the world then most others. Since technology isn't manufactured for much more than a luxury, or a tool. "Tool" including weaponry of any nature, including Nuclear. =].Now, if you think about it, all technology does is bring upon minor demise, to our own population. Self inflicted harm, if you ask me. However, things like the sun, probably the most over-looked thing in keeping our existence possible, is taken for granted. Technology isn't that major of a thing, because as it stands, technologies severely overrated. Animals, well, who cares? The only animals that should be preserved are ones that specifically relate to nature, and in turn, nature that specifically relates to us. (Being most, for wood.) Others, though I sound like an jabroni, aren't that necessary for our existence, which needs preserving sometime soon, which is mainly dependent on anyone giving a damn.New ways to kill people? Stupid comment.Considering we have effective enough ways as it stands, the only way it could be "new" would be a quicker, more genocidal way of death. Which, quite frankly, isn't a bad way to go, knowing how quick it's becoming.BioWarfare's old news, haruhi. Remember Anthrax? probably not, since you obviously don't look up what you talk about.-_-".Scientists are just continuing what they started.Simple.2sick~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest JoshIcy Posted July 15, 2008 Report Share Posted July 15, 2008 "Curiosity killed the cat and warned the others"... Granted some are immoral and whatnot but they have not gone too far... If anything it helps us in one way or another. Helps more understanding etc. Thus is the goal of a scientist... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VainZiler Posted July 15, 2008 Report Share Posted July 15, 2008 And this is...new? Seriously, scientists have been doing this since before the internet. Something that scientists are up to now are trying to perfect humane-animal hybrids. After the first successful hybrid, they're ordered to kill it after 10 days. Science can't go too far as there is no limit to science, only a limit to human comprehension and determination. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VainZiler Posted July 15, 2008 Report Share Posted July 15, 2008 How are animals below or above us? Riddle me this, it's not alright right to test on animals, but it's fine for humans? And vise versa to those that do think it's fine to test on animals. How is any one living creature have more worth then the other? In the end, we're all nothing but living organisms temporarily sharing the earth till our timely extinction. What does it matter if we try and expand our knowledge some?

J-Max Posted July 15, 2008 Report Share Posted July 15, 2008 We want to pass our Genes onto future Genrations. We learn these Technological advances to suceed. I know the whole issue on Animal Cruelty is wrong but a small sacrifice to aid the greater good is fine by me. (Hell I even offered to be a Test Subject for something once) As of the whole "Killing People" thing? These are just the nasty side effects of Technological Advancement. Greed, Power and many other things contribute to the want to own Nuclear or Biological Weapons. We have seen the power of a Atom Bomb. It is devestating.

Yogg-Saron Posted July 15, 2008 Report Share Posted July 15, 2008 Thing is, scientists have been researching biochemical warfare, different pest control diseases and such from WW1. If you do not know this, you fail my friend. They HAVE been doing it for A LOT of years, and NOW you are just starting to debate? This doesn't make sense. Also if your going to argue that something might go wrong, well as technology gets better, safety precautions do as well, so there is no sense in worrying about nonsense like this. Also, if a HUGE biochemical accident happened, and it wiped most of the population of humans, there are reserves in Iceland and Greenland JUST FOR an event like that, so the human population could start over again with seeds and such.

VainZiler Posted July 15, 2008 Report Share Posted July 15, 2008 because all the girls i met are bi*ches anyway all they look for is money or good looks or athletic abillity or intelligence.So in other words, you're admitting you have nothing of self value?

Anyways though, I didn't diss animals, although I'd argue about the women part, seeing as how I'm sure women have caused me as much problems as the dog that chased me when I was little, lol...and the latter is a risk of injury. I was basically sharing the sentiment that I don't think it's right that animals should be harmed...but I'm not entirely sure about my reasoning. It's still ambiguous for me, and I dunno, it's the whole issue of sacrifices in general and what sort of sacrifices are permissible, and it's one that I haven't felt strongly on yet.
