About Me
- David Lindsay
- “Before Red Tory and Blue Labour there was David Lindsay. He was arguably the first to announce a postliberal politics of paradox, and to delve into the deep, unwritten British past in order to craft, theoretically, an alternative British and international future. It is high time that the singular and yet wholly pertinent writings of this County Durham Catholic Labour prophet receive a wider circulation.” Professor John Milbank, Professor in Religion, Politics and Ethics, University of Nottingham.

Even if they were right, they would still be wrong from the standpoint of government policy. The State has traditionally intervened to prevent people from doing certain things to or with their own bodies. To a certain extent, I suppose the concept of self-ownership is a good thing, but there have to limits if we are to be civilized.
Presumably, she won't need any pain-killers in the process either?
I'm not quite sure why you're convinced that it's impossible for only one part of the body to be insentient, but if it helps at all I should point out that, in women and men, the brain is utterly insentient - this is why brain surgery requires only a local anasthetic.
