    Darwin’s “Missing” Fossil Record

  • 非接觸式、非侵入式生殖系統改良之長生不老動物的「第一型長生器官模型理論」-器官再生袋、器官種子巢死水區與收縮囊

    1, #1

    Serier Bog 1 - 1
    本文主要針對非接觸式、非侵入式生殖系統改良之動物,提出「長生不老」的器官模型理論(長生器官模型理論)。本文為一系列「長生器官模型理論」電子書籍當中的第一集;在本文中,提出「第一型長生器官模型理論」。首先,以動物倫理、人倫的觀點,探討「長生不老」雌性動物於永恆性侵、永恆懷孕、永恆承載肉體痛苦而生產後代的生存痛苦,來解釋筆者所提出的「第一型長生器官模型理論」只能使用在非接觸式、非侵入式生殖系統改良之動物的原因。挑選筆者提出的「第一型長生器官模型理論」而創造出恆久不老的動物,筆者必須限定動物之生殖系統必須為非接觸式、非侵入式生殖系統。筆者如此規定是根基於仁慈的理念,在避免雌性動物被性侵,懷孕,生產之恆久肉身的痛苦。筆者目前存在有現有之生殖系統改良的器官設計可以提供參考:提出雌性哺乳類動物的生殖系統器官改良,主要改良特色是雌性是無性生殖,會排出大便大小的「收縮囊」離開母體,使雌性不會懷孕 ...
