Hey sky or chissler,
Maybe you can help me with this issue because of your experience here.
I'm having a serious comprehension issue about my debate topic. Should I pose my question here, or am I allowed to ask for clarification on my debate page?

”Given The Chasm Of Scientific Comprehension Between The Public And The Scientific Community Is So Vast, There Is No Such Thing As "Voluntary and Informed Consent" When Planning Human Trials/Experiments."

Translated I think what he means is "Since the general public doesnt understand science they cannot give their "informed consent" to animal testing".
Maybe you can apply for a change of topic

Sky has it correct...essentially you are arguing that the layman can`t give a valid informed consent due to a lack of similar educational background. The title was necessarily long, in my opinion...

I'm just all moved into my new home and the better half is at work for the night. A relaxing night at home that I'd like to dedicate a bit of it to reading some of the debate forum.
Time well spent.. would you agree?
