sorry to be sassy, but
I believe that there has been a remarkable lack of emotion within our in-class discussion of death. Yes, the emotions conjured up by death are socially constructed, but this does not mean they are not functional! Our discussions have revolved around certain assumptions that I'm just not okay with. It seemed that every conversation of death was limited to death in old age.
Are we really okay with the notion of arresting scientific research that aims to eradicate and prevent disease? Why? because death is natural? Cancer may be a breakdown into a more probable state but what is natural about pediatric leukemia? I feel like sometimes we get lost within our context in this class and forget that what we say has implications.
