Body Worlds
Body Worlds pros cons list - Overview of the advantages and disadvantages
-
Scientifically highly interesting exhibition
Origin of some plastinates (corpses) not clearly clarified
Children are killing lots of people in computer games. So why should death suddenly be a taboo subject in education?
Dead people are presented as exhibited objects
You can look at a real smoker's lung. This can serve as a deterrent
Disturbance of the peace of the dead
People wanted to hand over their bodies to science ... that deserves a lot of respect!
Family of the corpse would have to visit it in the museum. No chance to mourn
The exhibition clarifies
Human dignity is inviolable beyond death.
...The exhibition shows unprecedented insights into the human body
Flayed corpses during sex
Since it is voluntary to be exhibited and you can also go there voluntarily, there is nothing to be said against it.
Contemptuous of humanity
A visit to Body Worlds is definitely worthwhile
You could also recreate the corpses with plastic or other materials
Gives visitors respect for the marvel that is the human body
No certainty about what happens after death
...interesting
People are not capital
Instead of lamenting the dignity of human beings after death, we should rather think about how we treat them while they are alive
repulsive
In my opinion, the exhibition (over my dead body) is very efficient because you learn a lot more about the construction of bodies there.
disgusting
Respect-is to respect what the exhibits have chosen to do in their lifetime, not the Christian Social norm that everyone must become worm food.
not nice to see a member of your family on display.
...I find it exciting
Human dignity is then lost
People are no longer exhibited because of their skin color or deformity.
simply creepy
preventive health education in a vivid way
simply not nice to look at
Interesting to see how people look when skinned.
it's kind of disgusting to know that they used to be people ....
...nice to look at
The deceased is not given a proper rest. Surviving relatives of the deceased have no opportunity to mourn.
They are in sex position
It depends less on the object than on the perspective. Exposing the dead to voyeurism is disrespectful and alienating from humanity.
It does not comply with the Basic Law because it resembles the death penalty or the scaffold in old France
privacy?
...Against human rights
Museum is not a cemetery
You are there at the cemetery
They are naked
