    Question Are You An Organ Donor? No Poll, Just A Question...

    I need to renew my Drivers License. I have to actually go into a DMV this time to do it. I haven't had to do that in, I can't remember how long. Now I have to make a decision. I am debating whether or not to donate my organs.

    On one hand I would like my parts to go to good use when I expire. The thought that I could possibly save a life or improve a life is a good reason to do so. On the other hand, there's the thought that a "Higher Being" may shun me if I abandoned my parts upon or after entering the "Afterlife".

    So what would you do? Do you have a pink dot on your drivers license?

    Two very valid points. I'm not super religious, but for some reason I chose not be a donor. Maybe I'm more religious or "God Fearing" than I lead myself to believe.

    We're in the same boat. I'm leaning more towards being safe than sorry. Just in case.

    ...but then, my hypocritical, selfish side would most likely accept donor blood or organs if I were dying.

    Then that's where we differ. I've been on deaths doorstep. Now I strongly feel if it happens again, I am ready to go. I don't want blood or organs.

    However...

    Going blind scares the shit out of me. I'd like some new eyes if that would work.

    Going blind would be the worst! It's gotta be a mindfuck not knowing if someone's there or not, on top of all else!

    I started having dreams about Mira Sorvino after I saw "At First Sight."

    Yes it's an an excellent flick. I highly recommend it.

    I saw that movie too ("At First Sight.") and it really had some powerful moments in it. Makes ya think right?

    Cool...I'll be on the lookout, thanks!

    Yeah...the thought of a lifelong blind person regaining their sight was very interesting.

    If you have NetFlix check it out on there.


    I'm hoping to get more responses on this. I wonder what percentage of Americans are Organ Donors.
