Real Zombies?!; Scientific Breakthrough

Dead dogs are brought back to life in Pittsburgh. U.S scientists have created a procedure to create real zombie dogs. Once the dogs have been legally dead (no heartbeat, no brain activity, and not breathing) the procedure begins. Scientists remove all the blood from the dogs and replace it with an ice-cold salt solution.

The bodies then sit for three hours. The blood is then put back into the bodies. The dogs are shocked, and they awaken from their long sleep. The dogs act normally and no brain damage is detected.

The scientists want to take this a step farther. According to Safar Centre,this procedure will be tested on humans within the next year.

I can see why it would be useful. Someone comes into the ER and has uncontrolable bleeding, this procedure can take place to slow the heart down so that blood isn't being pumped through the body. Then any treatment needed to stop the bleeding can take place and the doctors won't have to worry about blood being lost during the treatment.

However I think it's too risky to be done at least now. They just discovered how to do this not long ago. Are we really ready to test it out on humans?

I'm not sure. It will come in handy but I think it's too early.

I'd also like to take a look at a comment by a U.S battlefield doctor-

Quote:
 
The results are stunning. I think in 10 years we will be able to prevent death in a certain segment of those using this technology


If we can now prevent death death,should we do it?

I think not since we'd be cheating death and going against God's plan on when our time is up.

(For your information, I'm Roman Catholic.)

Its not like they can bring anything back to life. You aren't coming back if your head has exploded, for example. They probably can't bring anything back unless they kill it in a nice easy way pretty much. Still cool though.

Probably only natural causes, atleast for a long time. Who knows, maybe Stem Cell could become big, then anyone could be brought back. One thing to hope for is some way not to age, i mean seriously whats the point of being brought back over and over if you're just gonna be as old as dust.

Well, you wouldn't age if your dead, although you'd probably rot... unless they did something to prevent that. So being dead wouldn't age you, but you would still live just as long, just the time your dead wouldn't count.

Well the point is too bring you back alive, so aging is a possibilty. And they're plenty of things to prevent decay.
