But why do you think attitudes to slaughtering would not change over time?
- chroma 8y agoI think they will, but only once compelling meat substitutes become affordable. Even then, I think most of future society's condemnation will be for eating meat, not for animal experimentation. By comparison: When people talk about the holocaust, they are mostly referencing the mass slaughter, not the relatively small number of victims of human experimentation. (Wow, this got off topic quickly.)
- JamesBarney 8y agoThough it is brought up any time there is a discussion about the rules and hoops IRBs make researchers jump through.
- Nasrudith 8y agoWell anyone reasonable will recognize knowledge just not being the better alternatives like meat growth culture not being available. They might eyeroll at the "obvious" of "smoke is bad for your lungs, don't mix waste disposal and drinking water" not being able to do something hard isn't reasonable - we might grimace at amputations for gangrene but without suitable antibiotics. If anything they would judge those who don't adopt when it becomes viable.
