Yes I am an organ (and blood) donor. A good friend of mine was saved by a heart transplant, so the impact donating can have is not abstract for me.
And my belifes tell me to help people any way I am capable of, and that I won't need my body when I'm dead, so organ donation is a comfortable subject.
HOWEVER, I don't think ANYONE should be made to feel bad if they do not choose to donate.

Yes, I am. The reason why is because when I am dead there will be no need for me to hold onto my organs. I think if they can help someone else then I should allow them to be used. I am a total donor.

Beliefs have nothing to do w/my decision NOT to donate blood or organs.
They're mine...and no one elses.Nobody that did not contribute to their well-being has any right to them.
Purchasing an organ is another matter though,blood too...you got enough cash,I could see my way to parting with something.But it would have to be a boatload of cash,paid up front.

Yes.
When I pass this incarnation I will not need my organs any more but they may still be of use to a fellow human. If through my actions I can help a fellow human in life then it benefits me as well for we are all connected.
To my knowledge, Wicca doesn't say anything about organ donating.

Absolutely and as far as I know it says nothing. But if I can be used to save the life of another I think God would approve. Definitely a few brownie points if nothing else

Yes.
Although I'm not sure if anyone will want my organs the way I abused them during adolescence.
