"this" is the flagrant disregard for mellenia-old deeply held human values about life and death.
"Skepticism" is distrust of the pharma industry who sees humanity merely as a source of money to extract.
- gumby 7y agoThere is of course a cohort in Pharma who tries to game the system, sure, but by and large people seem to be into the whole "saving people" mission and care about IRBs and the like. Not at all like like it is portrayed in the press or movies. "flagrant disregard" seems a bit much. I never suggested that such rules should be flouted nor that they are. I was specifically saying I don't understand it. Sure I have relatives who won't eat meat on religious grounds and know why they think so but the worship of an inert piece of meat makes zero sense to me. As far as my dead friends and relatives go: the memories, good and bad, are how they live on for me; but the flesh, meh. Dispose of properly on hygienic grounds is all that matters as far as I'm concerned. It's not the person. It's especially unfair if the person donated their body: if you believe that they have some right to its fate that donation should be their business and not that of the survivors.
