Gosh, I just wrote: "Never Let Me God."
I should have written "Go," not God.

So, these kids are bred like domestic farm animals in order to harvest their organs? Holy shit. That's fucked up.

(1) Yes, that's right. The novel is set in a near-future Britiain, depicting a comfortable-looking orphanage where dozens of orphans are raised and well-educated. They are allowed to have all the sex they want and to love each other. But they're not allowed to get married.

(2) SPOILER ALERT: When well-grown, they are taken to a hospital to donate their organs, one organ at a time. When they have lost so many organs that they can live no longer, they are injected with a lethal poison for mercy killing. The author is Japanese-British, by the way.

So, it's a fictional story. I thought, there for a minute, this was based on a true story sometime in the recent past. It reminds me of "Philomena", a film about a convent in Ireland that housed unwed mothers & sold their children in adoption process.

(1) Yes, it's a fictional story. Sorry I didn't make it clearer. But then again, here and there in the world, there must be groups of people who have been actually doing something similar.

(2) There may even be some people going so far as to excavate Stalin and Hitler and getting a piece of their tissue to make clones out of it. There must be very young organ donors everywhere. I wonder how many sex slaves there are actually? And how many assassinators for money?

Hitler's body has never been located. The Russians claim to have a piece of his skull. But recent forensics identified it as a woman's skull. I have read that in China, prisoners have been harvested & organs sold. I don't know if it's true, though.

Falun Gong? That is one religious sect I have not perused. But I have read China was doing that. That is some creepy shit. People harvesting other people for their own bodily needs. That is vampirism. Or a form of cannibalism. Has a zombie feel to it.
