the hippocratic oath flawed

ok so i read the hippocratic oath today...no no its not my graduation...i just came across it somewhere.... and i dont understand how that thing is still being accepted or regarded....lol
i mean has noone from the medical proffession read it before me... ok let me point out to u some of its very basic flaws
-'i swear by apollo............and by all gods and godessess,makin them my witnesses' k i m thinkin u understand wny the last thing u want ur doctor to be doin is swearin by all gods and goddesses
-'i will not give to a woman a pessary to cause abortion' .....the vatican can rejoice,nd i know we can talk for hours bout this... but lol lets be realhem ahem oh well lets just be glad we dont take the damn thing seriously!!!
-'i will not use the knife,not even verily'.....ok so surgery is out the window!!
-'i will abstain from wrongdoin,esp from abusing the bodies of man or woman'-k i know this sounds rite.. but then doesn't this include the study of the human body using a cadaver..the most basic in the study of medicine
................... i guess we just like holdin on to the old ,we like thinkin of all old and unreal as sacred

nywayz this is just trivia i chose to impart..i have nothin much to write bout
yeah went to the photocopier today had a lot of papers to copy..like a good samaritan i let all those who came in between with small work go ahead..only to realise i had wasted an hour ,gotten annoyed and in the end had less work then all of those ppl combined...and the no. of times i cursed under my breath by the end of it ,even took away my ticket to heaven;-D ..being nice isn't really as glorious as it seems!
