I was quite interested in going to see that display because the human body fascinates me. However, after I learned that the founder of this technique was obtaining bodies of Chinese prisoners to use for his displays, I decided against it.

People in China can be imprisoned and executed for practicing a different religion or for simply disagreeing with the state. The state then sells their organs or their corpse without obtaining their consent.

The founder of the "plastination" technique has reported that he no longer obtains bodies from China but I dunno for sure. How can I be sure one of those people wasn't tortured and killed for believeing in the same God I believe in? :-(
