You will be a hero even after death. Any deity that would smite you for saving somebody's life isn't worth worship in the first place.

Lol, can you imagine hollywood actors dissecting a real cadaver for a movie? That's something that I would pay to see!

It may be a bit sad, but that anime is exactly what pushed me to check the organ donor box when I renewed my license. My mother didn't understand why I would do such a thing (she doesn't watch anime), but a few days later there was a newscast showing a lady who's life had been considerably prolonged by organ donation expressing profound gratitude to the daughter of the donor. I turned to my mom and said "That's why." If in my death I can save someone's life, then my death will not be pointless.

A situation that arose during an internship experience.

Click to show or hide justanotherguy_2005 wrote: I know nothing about the rapture and all of that stuff. Is that really what it's supposed to be all about? I think I would go with cremation just because it is cheaper. I don't know if I would really mind being a zombie or not but a cheap death is always good. I wouldn't care if they stuffed me in a fireplace to make it free. I don't need money spent on me when I'm dead. As for the whole hunting for brains thing, I never really understood that concept. I mean, if a zombie eats the brain of a human and they turn into a zombie how is shooting them in the head supposed to kill them when they no longer have a brain? I much prefer my zombies to not have a preferential body part or organ. It just makes more sense if they rip someone apart and don't care what they are wolfing down. There are references in the New Testament, primarily the book of John, to the physical resurrection of the dead (zombies!) and cannibalism. Also, the Nicene Creed specifies resurrection of the dead.

Oh yeah, and brains are hard enough to get out using a bone saw and a chisel, so gnawing or clawing a skull open is definitely out of the question. Ah, I see. I don't know. Nothing says sexy like a vampire who sparkles. I tend to agree that it isn't too nice of a corpse to just get up and walk around. But then I think about long lost treasures and think it would be nice to follow a zombie blackbeard back to where he hid his treasure. I wouldn't know about the science of whether or not a person can get ripped apart by a zombie. I always just assume that being a zombie it has acquired some berserk superstrength. I did however know about the intestines thing. It's one of the worst parts about dying. At least you could smell a zombie horde approaching though. As for obtaining brains I actually never considered how they broke the skulls open...now I think it would be funny to see a group of zombies trying to crack one open like a coconut.

If there is a deserving person, then they shouldn't be charged for my organ DONATION period. Nobody's gonna make a profit on my organs. Anyway, the point is moot. I've got a chronic illness that will render my organs useless to anyone when I die. I'd donate to my kids if they needed it while I'm alive....although they might be ungrateful bastards about it.....I'd do it anyway.

mlchanges 22211 cr points Send Message: Online	Permalink Reply Quote Posted 29 days ago I would be but after I'm done with them I doubt anyone will want them and I don't accept returns when I'm dead. Seriously though, I just never filled out the paperwork....
