*'''May 8th.''' KProM40A3 wrote the following argument against [[Debate: Animal testing| animal testing]] on the article's talk page: "It's Wrong! I may only be 13 years of a age, but I am entitled to an opinion and that opinion is that animal testing is unethical and inhumane. I believe there should be braver scientists out there who should test things on themselves. I know animal testing reduces the amount of human lives lost, but basing the use of animals in medicinal testing just because they are 'inferior' to us, is highly unacceptable. Animals are an important part of the ecosystem and should be treated nicely and almost like equals to humans." | *'''May 8th.'''

Debatepedia is essentially the Wikipedia of debates. It is an encyclopedia of pro and con arguments and quotes. A project of the 501c3 non-profit International Debate Education Association (IDEA), Debatepedia utilizes the same wiki technology powering Wikipedia to engage you and other editors in centralizing arguments and quotes found in editorials, op-eds, books, and around the web into comprehensive pro/con articles. This helps citizens and decision-makers better deliberate on the world's most important questions. Debatepedia is endorsed by the National Forensic League. | |
