Animal Enslavement, Use and Abuse: Man Receives Heart from Genetically Altered Pig

A 57-year-old Maryland man is doing well three days after receiving a genetically modified pig heart in a first-of-its-kind transplant surgery

Xenotransplantation is any procedure that involves the transplantation, implantation or infusion into a human recipient of either (a) live cells, tissues, or organs from a nonhuman animal source, or (b) human body fluids, cells, tissues, or organs that have had ex vivo contact with live nonhuman animal cells, tissues or organs. The development of xenotransplantation is, in part, driven by the fact that the demand for human organs for clinical transplantation far exceeds the supply.

According to CNN a 57-year-old Maryland man is doing well three days after receiving a genetically modified pig heart in a first-of-its-kind transplant surgery, University of Maryland Medicine said in a news release Monday.
David Bennett had terminal heart disease, and the pig heart was "the only currently available option," according to the release. Bennett was deemed ineligible for a conventional heart transplant or an artificial heart pump after reviews of his medical records.
"It was either die or do this transplant. I want to live. I know it's a shot in the dark, but it's my last choice," Bennett said before the surgery, according to the release.
The US Food and Drug Administration granted emergency authorization for the surgery on December 31.

Here we are at a moral crossroads. How did we get to this point?

In 10,000 BCE humanity started down the road that has led us to this point; stealing internal organs from our fellow created beings. Stealing from individuals who are innocent, and who have their own lives that are as precious to them as our own lives are to us. What can go wrong with doing these horrific things? What has already gone wrong? Plenty.

Nearly all of human civilization's problems; War, Poverty, Crime, Famine, and now the Global Climate Crisis had their genesis with the subjugation and abuse of animals through their domestication.

Domestication of animals even led to human slavery colonialization. Domestication provided the blueprint and road map.

The domestication of animals also led to the concept of private land ownership and the social agreement we call 'money', as well as every market system including Capitalism.
