1) Assuming that human health and well-being sometimes directly benefits from nonhuman experimentation, are such benefits enough to morally justify and/or cancel out much of the nonhuman pain, suffering, etc., that sometimes results from nonhuman experimentation? If so, why so? If not, why not?
My personal opinion I don’t think it’s justified just because the trial was successful for humans because someone or something had to suffer or maybe die during a trial and error.
2) Does the practice of nonhuman experimentation seem to violate the ‘Golden Rule’ i.e., to ‘do unto others as you would have them do unto you’? If so, then is violating this rule sufficient to say that the practice of nonhuman experimentation is immoral? Your reasoning?
I think it does but in this world we live in today that doesn’t seem to matter if you are in a lower class. I would say nonhuman experiments are immoral because if tests are done on nonhuman subjects who’s to say if trying the same experiments on a human will give you the same outcome whether it be positive or negative.
3) Does the practice of nonhuman experimentation seem to violate one or more morally important values, e.g., kindness, compassion, decency, respect, etc.? Your reasoning? The experiments on nonhuman subjects does violate the decency and respect for animals because, they are not given an option and more than likely they’re kept locked away in cages or cells against their will.
4) Does the practice of nonhuman experimentation seem especially speciesist and in turn just as morally suspect/bad as racism, sexism, etc.? Your reasoning?
It depends on how you look at it and from whose point of view. I guess in any of these situations the victims would all have the same opinion that they’re being mistreated and discriminated against. So, I guess all in all you would feel like you are being mistreated.
5) Finally, does the practice of nonhuman experimentation seem to violate one or more ‘rights’ that all creatures inherently have, e.g., the right ‘to be left alone’, the right ‘to not be used as a mere means to someone else’s ends’ etc.? Your reasoning?
It does violate anyone’s rights to just be at peace but, in this world we live in animals don’t have a voice. So, due to animal experiments that’s not something that’s openly spoken and seen to the public.
