The notion of being able to save the lives of others even after we ourselves have left this life is a noble one. However, in the name of saving one life, one should always be careful to avoid the unjust taking of another.
In the wake of the Terri Schiavo case, it is especially clear that some people are in great danger of losing their lives to unethical medical practices.
Which is why some ethical questions are being raised about how organs are harvested.
