that's some dumb ass thinking
How exactly is it "dumb thinking"...?
1) There is a reason why we have 2 kidneys and not 1...
2) It's hard to find a match, and matches have similar DNA...Therefore, if the receiver's kidneys shut down because of mechanical injury, that's not as bad as if they shut down because of a disease process, because that means, you also have a risk of your kidney shutting down, since you and the recipient are a genetic match...
So, who is going to give you a kidney if the 1 you have shuts down...?
It happen, sister gives brother a kidney, 8 years down the line, sister's kidney kuputs, and she dies...Still further down the line, the kidney the brother received from sister, kuputs...Now, brother has to spend his life savings to go to India and China to get a kidney on the black market...
This thing about "SAVING LIVES" is one of the biggest brainwashing schemes going on in the media...
No life can saved, you are only prolonging the inevitable...There is no God there is no Heaven or Hell...Therefore, it makes NO difference if you die today or tomorrow...
People who develop life threatening diseases at relative young ages that require organs and other expensive and extensive medical procedures, should be left to perish...
If your body is naturally dying at a young age, its because you are probably carrying a gene that should NOT be passed on to the next generation, and it's nature's way of ensuring that gene does not get passed on...
By "naturally dying," I mean diseases with beginnings that are beyond human control...I am not talking about diseases that can be prevented with good hygiene and other healthy lifestyle practices...
