Wonders of the body on display

I share every bit of Mr. Benson's amazement and awe at the mere thought of incredible complexity and intricate operation of human body and every other creeping, crawling, swimming, flying creature on the Earth.

It is that same sense of reverent awe that prevents me from supporting an exhibit which, if reports I've seen on TV and newspapers is correct, includes bodies from people who have not consented to have their remains splayed, flayed and dissected for all to see. Furthermore, I have the even greater concern that the lives of some might have been involuntarily and prematurely ended.

So, despite sharing the wonder of the biology, I am disgusted at some of the implications of the display material.

Sounds like either you believe or are trying to spread gossip and rumors. I've seen no such comments, except in the DN comments section by your fellow speculators.

abounds, doesn't it? They made it very clear that all bodies included in this exhibit were donated specifically for this purpose, so lighten up and go see this marvelous presentation.
