Re: [RC] Necropsy - rackinfool

Let me ask you this Steph,
 
If a rider had a horse die, and the necropsy results were made public, say in EN, would you object to reading those results and learning from them? 
 
Can you honestly say that you would turn the page and not read it?
 
I have sat in on a dozen or more Human Autopsies, and I have also donated one of my llamas that died to my Vet that just hired two Vet graduates from the University in Colorado, Susan G's Alma Mater... for a necropsy. I was allowed to watch the necropsy as well, and the information I got from all of them, human or otherwise was invaluable.
 
To do these things is like research, if we don't have research, we would still be dying off at age 35.
 
The soul has left the body, the body is a shell, I never can understand why there should be any religious objections, when religion certainly believes in the soul.
 
Perhaps if you had this information, you would never be at risk to even think of infringing on your beliefs.

>>Listen up folks......if that is all it costs in California, where Vet care is on the norm much more expensive than other States, I see no reason not to make it mandatory.
 
I have reilgous problems with Autopsies and necropsies, would there be a religous exemption? It seems *very* unfair to force me to put my horse through that should she die at a ride. It should be the rider/owner's option, not a mandatory rule that it be preformed.
