Great, look who's back, and just in time for Halloween. It's Body Worlds, and this time Science World's "incredible exhibit" promises even juicier material, at least judging from the website's "Caution for sensitive viewers: eyes and genitals remain. A section of the exhibition highlights prenatal development, and includes embryos and fetuses." There's always been an issue about where Dr. Gunther von Hagens obtained his corpses, who supposedly gave consent before they died. Maybe the executed Chinese prisoners he's used in the past consented before taking their last breath, but it's not clear how the embryos and fetuses gave permission. Here's the statement the Archdiocese of Vancouver released last time this ghoul show was in town. Nothing's changed.
