I've been thinking about this a lot.
Research is still being done towards brain transplanting.
I don't think there was ever a successful transplant because they weren't able to connect the brain with the spine.
But what if it was possible.
A few questions.
1) Would you ever want one?
2) Wouldn't it be strange to have just someone's body.
3) Do you want that anyone will ever use your body?
And finaly the biggest question
4) Will we still be the same person?
For me:
1) I don't think i would.
2) Don't like the thought of being in someone else's body.
3) No, never, cremation pls.
4) I don't know, don't think so.
Just because i think we have more in our body than just that brain.
I'm not religious but maybe there is this kind of soul that makes us ourselves.
What do you guys think?

1) No, absolutly not! I'm glad with the brain that i have. And i guess you're not the same person afterwards...
2) Ofcourse that would be strange, you know your own body for a several years, it would be so strange to get another one. It wouldn't feel right.
3) No, it's mine, that's it! Everyone gets one body and he/she has to respect that one. And if he/she destroys that one, bad luck, you can't have mine.
4) No, everything changes! I'm quite sure of that!
