A New Low For Humanity...What's Next?

You are offended by the plastic bodies (because I cannot spell plasticinazation or whatever it is) but I am offended by your abusing the name of my Savior.

This isn’t art, this isn’t science, this isn’t a learning experience of any kind.

Disturbing is what it is. It could also be described as disgusting, horrible, and/or sickening.

And that’s my two cents.

Body World’s is awesome. I will go to any show they have.

If I have learned one thing after 30+ years of law enforcement it is this: Life is very precious and dead bodies should be treated with reverence… even elephants show respect for their dead.

I am pretty sure I am in the minority of posters on this board. I don’t believe in any sort of immortal soul, I don’t care who sleeps with who, and I find nothing disturbing about the human body be it dead or alive.

However I do find something very disturbing about this. There is a time and place for everything, I just can’t figure out where an appropriate time or place for THIS would be. :confused:

However, as with all things if this is what they want to go see then let them. I will stick with the normal bodies exhibit.

Yeah, this is sick. If you need to use actual tissue to create porn, it’s just too weird for me. I could see using manicans or wax figures, but whats next? Cadaver rifle targets. Like, if you really need to see dead poeple F*&king, you’re probably not gettin’ any yourself. But, being that as it may, I’m not shocked by anything anymore, so I’de probably go see it just because I could. Nothin’ I can do about it so might as well.

I propose a solution. What if Gunther used Osama Bin Laden’s “plastinated” body and posed him fucking a stuffed sheep? He could even substitute an inflatable sheep if the animal rights community got their knickers in a knot. Any objections now?

This is the real kicker in this deal. We aren’t talking about people who donated their bodies to science. These are corpses of prisoners who were executed (possibly as part of their sentence and possibly as part of a moneymaking scheme) and then sold.

These shows are fascinating but I’ve got no desire to contribute funds to the situation until they actually can guarantee the bodies are donated, and not part of a murder for profit scheme. Adding sex to the use of “non-donated” bodies crosses the line from disgusting to horrific.

Your savior…or did you mean our savior? Neither you nor I hold the rights to him as far as I know.

I did not use his name in vein, I am asking for his help due to the decline of morals in our shared world. We need it.

No offense my brother, but I could see how E-Guns took offense to you posting that…that’s the way I took it also. But yeah I agree on calling on Him to help us in this wicked world…we do, indeed, need it.

I agree with you about needing Him. I am curious about what the “H.” stands for?

I object to it.

UBL is a jerk, no doubt. That being said, just like the issue of torture, the instant we start doing things that are evil, and those things being acceptable, we are no longer the “good guys”.

Good guys don’t torture.

Good guys don’t defile the dead, whether they’re slain Chinese prisoners, or a terrorist.

I have absolutely no idea. Perhaps I will refrain from using it.

But I can tell you I have seen the exact same posted here before, even by a mod, without notice. More than once.

Regardless, I wear a 1,200 year old bronze Byzantine cross I had customized with a gold bracket around my neck and pray every single night with deep sincerity. I don’t take such things lightly, I respect.

Apologies if I offended.

It’s all a matter of perspective:

Using His name in vain, through my interpretive channels, is:

  1. Praying for something frivolous
  2. Claiming to be a follower/disciple of Christ for political/social purposes.

Talk about topic drift!!! :wink: (kidding)

The solution is simple: if you don’t want to see it, don’t go see it.

As long as the deceased are made aware of what their bodies are going to be used for I don’t see an issue.

So, it’s disgusting to you, but essentially you would say heck with it and go anyway? And this just because you can’t prevent it?

Very odd reply.

I don’t think some of 'em had a choice, NMBigfoot:

I don’t think you really want to know the answer to that, dude. :frowning:

Wow. Never read that before. You would think they would check this kind of stuff…
