Why do some people think that we shouldn't use pig's hearts for human heart transplants?

Pig hearts are not used routinely for human heart transplants - xenotransplantation just does not work for long term use. People just seem to assume that animal to human transplantation is far more common than in reality - it is incredibly rare. Very occasionally it may be used to bridge a gap until a suitable human organ becomes available, but it is not a long term solution. Animal organs do not maintain function in a human body.

It comes out instinctively and can have several meanings, none of them with true meaning all depend on the person to whom it is told to, and does not have a true meaning.
