Webbo Posted 12 April 2013 Posted 12 April 2013 Fine, but why? I'm yet to hear a convincing argument over and above 'it makes me feel uncomfortable' It's not " I feel uncomfortable" it's the principle. We are supposed to own the govt, they are not supposed to own us.They have no right to assume the ownership of our body parts.
Zingari Posted 12 April 2013 Posted 12 April 2013 They can prop me up against the operating theatre door and use me as a doorstop if it would help save another persons life, as I will have absolutely **** all knowledge of it. Yes that's fine , but it should depend on you saying as much , not someone else assuming it . I don't care if they take me with the recycling bin , but i think we all should respect the views of others to not have to actually state this
Monk Posted 12 April 2013 Posted 12 April 2013 Personally i hope we soon have the ability to grow organs artificially at which point this might all be unnecessary. It's about 10-15 years off apparently. That will be an awesome day.
