Mankind is evil

Phee-ew. That is a long argument for me to cover (: But let's get straight to the point. The truth is, Almost everything we use is either made from animals/trees or tested on animals. Shampoo, Drugs, Soap, Gummy bears, Meat, Sauces, Wooden flooring, Paper, Most furniture, Leather clothes, Leather purses, Furs, Coats, Most shoes, Beer, Perfume, Most plastic bags, Most condoms, Nail polish, Lipstick, Red food coloring, Most bread, Plywood, Fireworks, Candles, Most toothpaste, Most paint, Crayons, Glue, Car and bike tires, Some sugar, Photographic film, Deodorant, And even some computers are made or processed with animal products or trees. There are hundreds of other things we use everyday that aren't vegan as well. If we would stop killing animals and testing products on them, Our civilization would fall apart and we would return to the stone age. That is a cold hard fact. I love animals, But I think that humans are infinitely more valuable and we shouldn't destroy our entire civilization to stop animals from being killed. I can tell you why pollution is increasing: because fossil fuels are much more effective. It's far cheaper and faster to pump oil out of the ground or mine coal than it is to harvest wind energy (which kills thousands of birds, By the way) or any other clean energy source. Of course, It is possible to massively decrease pollution, But that would return our civilization to the stone age. That, Again, Is a cold hard fact. For our civilization to grow and advance, Pollution cannot be massively reduced overnight. Are you seriously arguing for human testing instead of animal testing? I'm sorry, But a mouse is millions of times less valuable than a human. If we banned animal testing, The amount of new products would shrink dramatically, Which would again harm humanity. Animals are absolutely necessary to test new medicine, Drugs, Vaccines, And other products that sometimes even help animals themselves! Animals are inferior to humans. That is another cold hard fact which is irrefutable. It may seem like we are testing on animals because of greed, But if we ban animal testing our civilization would collapse. Atrocities are ABSOLUTELY NOT on the rise. Humanity today is at its most peaceful times. Crime levels and death rates are at an all-time low. There are only a few wars fought around the entire world, And alliances such as NATO help to decrease the amount of wars still. War happens in all species. All species fight: tigers, Lions, Wolves, Foxes, Even bees. Physical conflict is a part of humanity which will never dissapear, And blaming all of mankind for a few wars happening now is wrong. Sexual harassment, Rape, And murder are ABSOLUTELY NOT becoming more common. I don't know where you got than lie. Like I said before, We live during the best time in the world right now. Crime and wars are falling, And life expectancy and GDP per capita is rising. Claiming that atrocities and crime are on the rise is wrong. You can twist reality to fit your biased worldview, But facts and statistics suggest otherwise. You can make claims all you want, But the facts don't care about your feelings. Without animal testing and animal products, Humanity will return back to the stone age. Without fossil fuels and manufacturing, Our civilization would fall apart. Nature shouldn't be harmed when possible, But humans are infinitely more valuable than animals and I wouldn't value the lives of some animals over our entire civilization of 7 billion people. Some humans are evil (just like some animals are too), But claiming that all of mankind is evil is wrong. The truth remains the truth: most humans don't rape, Most humans don't steal, Most humans don't kill animals for fun, Most humans don't start wars, And most humans aren't evil. The majority isn't evil, The majority is good. The actions of individuals do not determine the character of 7 billion people. And finally, Let's finish this debate. Who deserves to win? That will be up to others to decide. It was a pleasure having this debate and discussing such an interesting topic with you. Good luck and goodbye.
