Re: Christians as organ donors

LOL

I was just joking around guys. It was just a thought that struck me. I'm an organ donor too.

Interesting thought... I wonder if Muslims etc have rules against organ replacement? What if the previous owner of the liver ate pork?


Something to think about huh?

Real organ donors are
bikers riding without helmets.

Re: Christians as organ donors

I know too much to be a "recorded" organ donor, however, my wife and family know that should I be declared brain "dead" then I am willing to be an organ donor. I realize there are good doctors/medical facilities that handle "donors" with dignity and respect, but there are many many horror stories, some of which I am personally aware of where people have died who may have lived otherwise because some unscrupulous doctors/staff wanted their organs for transplantation.

I know of others that are alive today who doctors instructed nurses not to treat them while they argued over body parts......the nurses treated them anyway and filed complaints against the docs and the patients are still alive and well today.

If it is on your license or publicly registered somewhere, they could allow you to "die" to harvest your organs.....and yes it has happened. That's why my family knows my wishes and will give the ok ONLY when they know there is no chance for a meaningful life for me.

You knew it was coming.

"I suppose so."

Imagine that... at the rapture, suddenly those corneas come flying back to my resurrected body. Then some dude's wondering around blind yelling, "My eyes, my eyes! Where are my eyes?!" That's when I nonchallantly say, "Over hear..." and walk away. lol








Don't judge me... they're MY eyes!



I have often pondered that situation as well. I am not a strong believer in any one position on the Rapture of the Church. I do believe that we will be caught away, but if that is before Jesus pours out His wrath on the world, in the middle, or at the end, I do not know. I still have pondered the look on the faces of people when the doctor opens the departed during the autopsy and says, "He lost his heart." Or maybe during a brain transplant, "Ooops, he lost his mind."
