My point is that while it may be possible for some people to choose to not use animal products in a modern society such a society wouldn't exist without the initial use of animal products - Your dream of some vegan utopia is entirely contingent upon prior use of animal products.

Hang on... What exactly is religion supposed to have to do with anything?
So you want to reduce suffering? Given that animal testing does in fact achieve this end aren't you being a bit disingenuous here?
