Organs & Bloggers

Looks like WHYS is talking about whether organ donation should be presumed or if it should be a “consent only” situation. I remember another show on the same subject from last year and my feelings are the same now as they were then. I think everyone should have the choice to donate their organs, but if they choose not to do so, it is a very selfish decision.

Most people that refuse to have their organs harvested are doing so based on superstitious religious practices. You would be hard pressed to find an atheist that would be selfish enough to let their body go to waste after death. Hell, I’d rather be compost than be an embalmed space-hog.

The second topic is about whether or not political bloggers make a difference.  I believe they do. World Have Your Say is proof of that fact. I have learned so many interesting and important things about global politics and civilizations from the bloggers that take part in WHYS. I think bloggers make the big picture a lot more high definition than traditional media sources have ever been capable of achieving.

That’s about it for now…

Gotta’ Run!
