Not a good idea to agree to be an organ donor. It puts a big temptation in front of any doctor or hospital.

We may be getting to the point where it doesn’t matter if you agree or not. But in the meantime, why put that temptation in front of them?

Because “brain death” is a FICTION. You are not dead until your heart stops beating, your cells die, and you are really dead, and at that point it’s usually too late to harvest organs. So there will be a great temptation to anticipate.

They tried in the 1990s to make organ donation in Texas something you had to OPT OUT of on your driver’s license rather than opt into.

So much for the abortioninsts’ creed “keep your hands off MY body”.

I know quite a few people who take that position.

Motorcyclists are told to NEVER agree to be organ donors because of the temptation.

How do they KNOW the person has not declined to be an organ donor?

What happens when somebody would rather have a dead relative than a living burden? The ghoul waggon fixes that and eliminates the evidence.
