i have really wanted to see this for awhile. i heard there was some furor over this due to many of the bodies coming from china and it is believed those are victims of that governments ideaology. i believe knowledge is always better than ignorance, even if it is packaged as a tourist attraction.

and of course if it were up to religion infant mortality rates would still be high because imnunizations are evil, life spans would be shorter because the body is a "temple" to remain gods unspoilt mystery, women would still be subservient to men, the earth is flat and all the infinite universe revoilves around our one little planet. talk about idolatry... we even get to keep our fleshy bodies after we die and walk streets of gold. or get a bunch of virgins, or another go round as an insect or bird or another human. BOR-ING. whatever it takes to give people purpose. but that is another topic.
