Yes, because I'm not a selfish [censored] moron.

Anybody who chooses not to is either really lazy, a malicious jerk, or a superstitious assbagel.

Perhaps I was a bit too harsh. Paranoid schizophrenia might also be a reason for choosing not to.

Or religious doctrine.

i can respect people not doing it for religious beliefs. Or even normal beliefs.

I do wish there was more of an education for the needs though

ya u can, when u get an drivers license (in the US) they ask u
if u wanna be an organ donor, I said yes I figure why not help someone else out if Im gonna die

[/ QUOTE ]

it also means when you are dying in the hospital...that they are less likely to try harder to save you --- bonus = they get your organs!!

(yes some of you hate me, but yes this is true, proceed with arguing with me)

The doctor who would be in charge of saving your life would most likely be some sort of trauma or heart surgeon, ER doctor, oncologist, etc. The kind of doctor who would be helping patients in need of organ transplants would be someone like a nephrologist, hepatologist, cardiologist, etc. What reason would the 1st group of MDs have for valuing the 2nd group of MDs’ patients more than their own?
