I don't know what religions say about organ donors. Organ donation is a private thing that one must decide for ourselves. I will no tell you if I am an organ donor or not because it is no ones business. But I do believe that organ donations have and will keep saving a lot of lives. So this is something only you can decide and make sure that one of your closest family members know if you want to or not. It is imperative that someone knows before one falls into a comma or becomes brain dead. That is all I can offer you at this time.

Organ donation came after the writing of any holy book, like many things we deal with.
But I saw a bumper sticker that says "Don't take your organs to heaven; heaven knows we need them here!"
I'm Pagan and an organ donor.

I don't know. I follow no religion or man. Me personally, I'm a donor. What the hell will I need my organs for once I pass out the physical? I may as well help someone still here and in need to live life.

Well, I don't know about the religions, but as an atheist, I'm registered as an organ donor. When I'm dead, I won't have any use for my organs, so if they can help someone else, cool.

I DON'T KNOW ABOUT THE OTHERS, BUT IT IS ALRIGHT FOR CHRISTIANS, I AM A CHRISTIAN AND AN ORGAN DONOR.
YOU SEE WHEN JESUS RECALLS OUR BODIES HE WILL HAVE NO TROUBLE,FOR HE IS GOD.ALMIGHTY. JUST THINK ABOUT BODIES OF CHRISTIANS THAT WERE DISMEMBERED IN AUTO ACCIDENTS OR OTHERS BURIED AT SEA ETC.

I don't have a problem with it.
And, I'm registered as a donor myself.

in Methodism it is a personal decision since the body dies anyway Why not?

As Buddhists, we don't mind, but in Asia, it is not a common thing...after all Buddha recycles!
