What? Huh?

I think not being an organ donor is the most selfish thing a person can do.

I agree. There's nothing that emboldens the human spirit and says "I love my fellow man" than saying "Fuck you, these organs are mine!"
The only reason you'd say NO to being harvested is either (a) religious belief or (b) selfishness. I'd love to see someone come up with another reason here. If you claim your reason is "because it's mine," that simply a well-worded way of saying that you're so greedy, miserly, or selfish, however you want to put it, that you can't donate something to the common good that in NO WAY helps you.
This is one place where I'm comfortable saying that everyone should be harvested, regardless of their beliefs, religious or otherwise. I much prefer saving the lives of the living than "celebrating" the dead. They're dead, they don't contribute, they smell, they rot, and they did I mention they don't contribute? They don't talk, they don't walk, they don't care, they don't love, they don't make money, spend money, or improve the state of humanity. THEY ARE USELESSS. The only GOOD thing they still have going for them is that their organs CAN help humanity. So if that means mutilating the shit out of their corpses, I'm all for it.
It saves lives.
