I will not donate my organs for transplantation.
First, I think that the donation of human organs leads to regard the organs as mere exchangeable bodily parts. According to Morioka, the social system that tries to construct broad transplantation network and aims at recycling all the possible organs might someday leads to a more inhumane society in which all people are regarded as an exchangeable part of the social system. In other words, the donation would cause the thought that human is regarded as exchangeable parts and would create the cruel society. Therefore, I will not donate my organs.
Second, I have the deontological theory about donation of organs. According to Shannon, the theory answers the question, "What should I do?" for specifying my obligation or moral duties. I think that the donation of organs for transplantation is not my moral obligation. Therefore, I will not donate my organs for transplantation from the view of deontologism.
Finally, I think that I should preserve my body perfectly even after dying. Morioka explains that Japanese view of the dead body tends to think that the dead body must be perfect to communicate with bereaved family phychologically and religiously. In other words, if some parts of the dead body are missing, the soul becomes unhappy in the next world. In my opinion, I should refuse to injure my dead body because it may make my soul unhappy after dying. Therefore, I will not donate my organs.
In conclusion, I will not donate my organs because of the risk of leading inhumane society, the theory of deontologism, and the desire to preserve my body perfectly after dying.
