I was getting my license renewed, and as I'm getting my picture taken, the girl asks "Do you want to be an organ donor?" I can't really say no to that question, so yeah I am (According to my license)

I am a organ donor. The fucked up thing is i'm am not allowed to give blood. 11 years ago during my herion addiction I contracted hepatitis A. It's the least serious of the hepatitis strains and is completely curable. There are no traces of the virus in my blood for the last 10 years. In fact the body produces antibodys making it almost impossible to contract it agian. Anyway I went with my wife several times to donate blood and they said no way. After explaining the nature of hepatitis A and the fact there was no way I could infect some else they said "sorry it's just a rule".

In Canada, they ask you if you've ever injected drugs; that's reason enough to turn you away...

I voted No/undecided, but most probably I won't be a organ donor in the future.
It's my wish (albeit a very egoistical one, I know) to have my body untouched when I die. That means no autopsia either at all, it's humilliating in my opinion.
That doesn't mean that I don't think my wish is egoistical, it is, but hey... my body is my sanctuary, and it's not that I don't want others to live longer, it's just that the idea does not really go with my ideals 
Maybe someday I'll change my opinion on this matter, who knows. Until then being buried under a tree in full make up it is

Yes I'm a donor...
They can use every single part of me that they want to... If I'm able to help others when I'm dead then why not? I see no reason to not be a donor really... Yeah ok some believe that you won't go to heaven or anything but I don't believe in heaven so that makes it easy...

psilocyberin said: I refuse to donate my organs for a couple of reasons.
1) We have the capability, or atleast potential to create organs for use in organ replacement. Yet for some reason, probably "unethical", we arent. 2) While it may be deemed "good" to donate organs, it cannot always be a good thing. What if your liver saved the life of an alcoholic who later goes on to kill someone in a drunken car accident?
1. u cant make synthetic eyes, synthetic livers, its not because it unethical, its becuase we dont have the technology to replicate human functions, they are WAY too complex even in our current dreams to replicate. 2. what if my eyes are used to make a cyborg who takes over the world and hangs babies on a clothesline by thier toes for fun. what if ... to death.
1) things like eyes arent exactly a life or death situation. Being the son of an optometrist and taking many shits in my life in my dads bathrooms with nothing else to read but articles on the latest in optical advancement. Im not talking about synthesizing organs, Im talking about cloning them. If they can grow a human nose (or was it an ear?) on the back of a lab rat, im sure a liver would be no problem. 2) what I meant to say is that there is no way of measuring the "good" of the act.... especially after you are dead. Maybe it makes you feel good, and you go on throughout your life thinking you have "helped" someone, when in fact your heart was rejected by the recipients body, another surgury was performed and your heart was replaced by a baboons and thrown in the haz-mat bin.

I am. I went to get my driver's license, and the lady asked, "Do you want to be an organ donor?" I'd never really thought about it before, and didn't want to do anything without thinking it over, so I said, "No thanks for now, I'll have to think about it." She marked "Yes" on my license.
