To all of you who are against organ donation, be true to yourselves, if a loved one was in need of an organ donation would you not accept it?
What kind of question is that? If I needed an organ, I would follow the halacha there also. Whatever the halacha is. (I’m pretty sure most poskim hold you can accept an organ, but I don’t know that.)
And if you think I would take the organ even if it was against halacha, does that mean I should also break halacha now?
Look, if your rav says it is muttar, I commend you for following him and doing it. I am aware of very learned poskim who do hold it is muttar. But I cannot understand why you think it is wrong for me to follow the majority of poskim–including my poskim–who say it is assur. You really should have a little more respect for other people, and their way of life (and death).
