So it's OK if they go scour the cemetaries and dig up your mom, dad, brother, sister, child, even if they had not wished it?

While, like I said, I like the concept of organ donation, to say you and your family give up rights to your body after death runs contrary to many people's religious and spiritual beliefs. Maybe they'll start digging people up to clone them for organs too?

No, it's terrible when people are hurt and need organs, but there is a better. mutually satisfactory way to go.
