For me personally, I don't like the idea of my insides being taken out and given to others, but I feel that makes me selfish. I perceive death as being old-fashioned - if you die in a natural way, you're buried and then go to your grave. But thinking about it in perspective, it won't make as much of a difference, because of course people that drown, people who are cremated, people who are buried, burnt, trapped, whichever way - all of them die and I'd assume all are the same after death as well. So I can understand why people say once you've died, you've died - and so surely it's a good thing if you donate organs and allow more lives to be saved, depending on the way you died, when you're going to be needing no uses for them anyway.

It's just for me personally, I'm not so sure. I think it has something to do with a cultural and family thing as well; the way your family and ancestors have been buried - you tend to follow the example and keep the tradition going.
