>> I think that organ harvesting is possibly the most dangerous facet of the culture of death.

Agree. It adds a profit motive and that can only spur the whole business. I know, it's all supposed to be "donations" to "organ banks" for the public good. But that's all so much trash talk. The organs are valuable. The hospital chop shops are in place to realize that profit. If they can't make the profit on one level, they'll barter a deal on another.

There was a series of articles in my local paper last week about the body parts "business" and it is a huge money maker. The "non-profits" that cannibalize corpses are allowed to charge a "reasonable fee" for doing so.

Don't get me wrong, I think organ donation is wonderful and has saved millions of lives. If I was killed in a car crash today, I want my organs to be used to help others. However, the slippery slope we're on is starting to reach a point when living people will be murdered for their organs.
