Yes, and of course we haven't learned everything since new stuff are coming to us constantly in terms of research.

also yes i'm pretty much a hippie..so yeah

Exactly, and even if everything's already been researched, that information doesn't automatically go into the next generation's heads! we have to learn it all again, and thats better with practical dissection
 
stop harassing me

this is hilarious, this thread
 
I don't find it bad at all as long as the animal wasn't killed purposely for the dissection. However, in most cases, they are, so I don't know what to think.

ye, biology teachers drive out to a field, kill a cow, and tear out its heart. thats how they get their pieces for dissection
 
i dont find this thread lasting that long since people cant tell the difference between debating and insulting :|
 
Guys, rather than focus on how much of a **** KarlaKGB is being, simply report for misconduct and continue the discussion. It's that simple.

Yeah, I'm sure she will make a 180 once she gets sick and her life depends on seeing a medical doctor. I'm certain this is just all talk, and she is even aware she's being irrational right now lol.
Some people really don't want to be operated on, though. In the same way that some people don't want to be resuscitated, it has to be respected by the medical professionals. There's a reason those rules exist and if people don't want to be operated on because they want nature to take its course or whatever else their reasoning may be, let them. You may think of them as ignorant but I'm sure that when people start attacking your beliefs as being close-minded and ********, you'd start screaming about "muh mutual respect".
 
I meant to vote for the second option, my bad.

The animal is dead anyway, so why not? I personally couldn't do it because I'm queasy when it comes to this, but I'm not against it.

I didn't state specifically operation, I meant seeing a medical doctor.

It's more the fact they said they don't trust medical doctors. Of course I'd always respect a patients views, but that view would be a bit disrespectful to me if I was a doctor and genuinely wanted to help them, but oh well.
 
And my point can be extended into that. People believe in homeopathy and alternative medicine. Let them.

I get there are religious people like that, and people who are into holistic healing, we aren't on that topic though lol.

I'm talking about not going to a doctor because you don't trust them because....just because. I have yet to see a reason, therefore I find it to be irrational, as this person has already said they are being irrational, which LEADS me to say it's all talk.

also Tinkalila, i'm sorry you had to experience insults because you stated your view, that's not how a debate should be, and i hope it didn't discourage anyone else to share your same view. i actually love seeing contrasting views, because it's a part of learning for myself, and sometimes a contrasting view can be so well put that ill reconsider.

Yes, and by opening up bodies (or likewise) we can see the changes as well.

However if one can argue for them being against feel free but I have a hard time people only referring to PETA and hopping on the wagon.

There's no need to take it personally though. I doubt it's an attack towards the people working in the field. The fact they don't trust doctors might come from a past event, misinformation, because they believe it's just an industry to suck them dry, because they believe in natural healing... There's a whole list of possible reasons. It doesn't make it logical, but it's also not personal. I doubt astrophysicists take it personally when religious people say the big bang theory is bull****.
 
ah yes peta, the organisation that loves animals so much it gives them the express ticket to animal heaven
