Our school doesn't disect anything. I think it's strange that schools still do that.

I think it is wrong and disgusting. In many places, the animals are even BRED to be dissected. now that is just sick.

Yes.



It may be against your beliefs, but school is school. Deal with it.

Props to that, we all have to do things we don't wanna do.

Many people do thing that they're not comfortable with everyday.



So whether or not I'm down with it, if I was told to I would.

But most teachers I know, wouldn't force a kid to do it if they really didn't wanna go through with it, so it's cool.

I wanted to disect an animal in my Bio class this year, but our school is too poor for that sutff! :(



Anyway, it really should be totally optional for a student to disect an animal. Some people I know freak out whenever they see blood... o_O

I couldn't really say. I've disected enough so we have to face smelly things almost everyday in school. Such as the kid in front of us. And that can smell worse than the animal we're dissecting.

You spurn my natural emotions

You make me feel like dirt

And I'm hurt

And if I start a commotion

I run the risk of losing you

And that's worse



Ever fallen in love with someone

Ever fallen in love

In love with someone

Ever fallen in love

In love with someone

You shouldn't've fallen in love with



I can't see much of a future

Unless we find out what's to blame

What a shame

And we won't be together much longer

Unless we realize that we are the same

In my school some classes have to disect baby pigs and one class has to do CATS that were put down from animal shelters.
Whatever our failings may be, we need not lower our eyes in the presence of Jesus...Jesus comes not for the super-spiritual but for the wobbly and the weak-kneed who know they don't have it all together, and who are not too proud to accept the handout of amazing grace. As we glance up, we are astonished to find the eyes of Jesus open with wonder, deep with understanding, and gentle with compassion.

My friend is a veg. and also an animal rights person and yet she still did it. SO it really all comes down to if you want to do it I think. B/c I did it and I'm also an animal rights person. But you have to think of it like this can you handle it. I know I could and at the same time it was also vary interesting. But I'm still all for the animals.



So like I said. It's up to that person. Wheater he or she thinks they could handle it.

I think it should be up to the students to decide, some may feel sickend when some teacher says "cut this up", they shouldnt have to go through that.

Well, you have to ask yourself why you wouldn't want to.



I thought the idea was that vegetarians were against killing animals to eat. Fair enough. But these animals are already dead, why shouldn't we learn from them?



I dissected a pig's foot once. It was great fun and it was interesting, and I learned a lot from it. It's amazing to see a foot from the inside out. No matter how many videos you see or what diagrams you look at, you will never learn better than from experience. Books are no substitute for the real thing. That's why dentists are presented with a human head to dissect and medical students are presented with a body to dissect. Because looking at a picture in a book just doesn't compare.



One thing I didn't agree with though, was that in the genetics section of my Higher course we had to breed flies, about 4-5 generations at least, I can't remember the exact number. Each generation being a massive number of flies (This was EACH person in the class doing it) and once we'd counted them, we drowned them in alcohol. I think that's sick.



If the animal's dead, why not learn from it? It's sick, I know. But I'd probably give my body to science *shrugs*
I traded my dreams for this mess of memories

And they just stopped working for me...
