People should be generous‚ and be willing to give away their extra parts to those who are in need of said parts. Those who oppose the buying and selling of organs at Santa Clara University proclaim that “society may have a duty to preserve life and relieve human suffering‚ but not by any means whatsoever.

Even though humans and animals have many activities in common (sleeping‚ eating‚ mating‚ and defending)‚ human beings have a fifth faculty: the intelligence to inquire into the truth of our existence (Butler and Guru). The following text will explain why human beings should be considered unique and why they should be in a different category

In comparison to other species‚ the human approach toward sexual selection is remarkably distinct. Humans are the most intelligent species on earth‚ and have differed from our previous animalistic ancestors through a comprehensive verbal communication system and an ever-advancing global civilization.

I think human testing is good because of these reasons. Without human testing we most likely wouldn’t be here today. Testing on animals isn’t always accurate. Doctors wouldn’t know if the newest vaccine will work on a human being if they just tested it on animals. Even if we test it on our closest genetic ancestors (i.e. Apes)‚ we wouldn’t be sure if the medicine works on humans. Apes are underdeveloped and live in the wild‚ so they’re able to withstand the obstacles the environment throws at

Extinction According to Raup (1991‚ p. 3f)‚ “except that the human species still living literally forever‚ it will some time stop to exist. The future of humanity is easy to explain about extinction such a long-term. An estimated 99.9% of all species that ever existed on Earth are already extinct.” There are two distinct ways in which the human species could become extinct: first‚ it is by evolving or transforming into one or more new species or life forms‚ amply particular from what came
