![]() A researcher, with full condemnation of the Nazi work, asserted that using the results of certain experiments (e.g., anoxia and hypothermia) for legitimate treatment-oriented research was at least some ethical recompense that the victims hadn't died completely in vain. That certainly makes sense to me. How can we possibly justify throwing away knowledge because we don't like the way in which it was attained? When we start making judgment calls like this, we could, for example, demand that the U.S. dismantle its nuclear plants on the ground that they would not exist if the Manhattan Engineer District hadn't set out to build the bomb that killed the residents of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. all the best -- Dan Ford email: see the Warbird's Forum at www.warbirdforum.com and the Piper Cub Forum at www.pipercubforum.com |
