what if it went to a private company of your choosing? and, again, what does it matter what anyone does with your body after you're dead? you won't even know it's happened
I think I would prefer the government to a company to be fair. And that's fair, I'll be dead, I can't complain. I just think it's a bit inhumane to treat a dead body like a resource that way.
inhumane?
that means "without compassion for misery or suffering". in what way would your dead body be experiencing either of those things?
your body is going to deteriorate into a useless chunk of dust anyway, why not put those chunks of dead cells to good use?
im sorry if i am coming off as confrontational here, tone is hard to convey through text. im trying to understand your mindset, not trying to convince you that you're wrong.
Inhumane might not be the right word. I'm not against donating my organs personally or anything. I don't know if I can explain my mindset. I agree, why not put them to good use. But I still think you should have the choice if you want it to be or not.
Which to be fair, you have with this. Opt out is still giving you the choice. I suppose if you want to opt out, you can. If you don't know to opt out, it probably doesn't mean that much to you.
