Christianity's organ-donation verdict is among its cleanest bioethical affirmations: the Catechism names posthumous donation 'a noble and meritorious act' and 'an expression of generous solidarity' (2296), to be encouraged — with two conditions that make the practice humane: free consent (donor or proxy) and authentic respect for the donor's life and body (no procurement that causes the donor's death). The theological grounding is the tradition's own center: 'greater love has no one than this, that someone lay down his life for his friends' (John 15:13) — donation is that love in transplantable form; the body's resurrection hope (1 Corinthians 15) removes any metaphysical anxiety about the body's integrity at the second death; and the donor-cycle's parable-shape (death producing life) is almost too on-the-nose for the tradition not to love. The technical debates — brain-death criteria, allocation justice (who receives organs is a fairness question the tradition's social teaching engages) — are handled through Church dialogue with transplant medicine, and papal and episcopal statements have consistently encouraged registration. The verdict: register, tell your family, and consider the living-donation cases (kidney, liver-lobe) that Christians have disproportionately pioneered.

Does organ donation interfere with burial or resurrection?
No tradition holds that; these answers settled, the traditions encourage donation.
No tradition holds that; these answers settled, the traditions encourage donation. Christianity's resurrection hope (1 Corinthians 15) concerns God's power, not anatomical completeness.
Is selling an organ permitted?
No — every tradition here prohibits organ sales: organs are not property to be sold, and exploitation of the poor is condemned across the board.
No — every tradition here prohibits organ sales: organs are not property to be sold, and exploitation of the poor is condemned across the board. Donated is required; covering expenses is fine. The prohibition protects the poor from becoming spare parts.
What is the Jewish brain-death debate about?
A technical halakhic question: what establishes death — the whole brain (including brainstem), per most transplant criteria, or the heart's stopping, per classical sources.
A technical halakhic question: what establishes death — the whole brain (including brainstem), per most transplant criteria, or the heart's stopping, per classical sources? Practically, observant Jews specify their standard on donor documents. The debate confirms the rule: saving life governs both sides of the argument.
