On the Road to Hell
Where their worm dieth not and the fire is not quenched.
Serious Religious Implications of Organ Transplants

Lately I have been considering the serious implications of organ transplants, and Christen beliefs. Suppose a righteous person were to die and before she died out of the goodness of her heart she donated her eyes to another so that he might see. Would she then go to Heaven? But she's not really dead, not completely. Her eyes are still alive living in this person to whom her eyes were donated.

Now let us suppose the person to whom her eyes were donated should be a sinner (God forbid). Suppose he is bound for Hell and there is no saving him. Would her sinful eyes be cast into Hell along with the sinful person to whom they had been donated? Or would they be forgiven for their sins for her sake and returned to her in Heaven?
Or perhaps she too would be found guilty of the sins of her eyes and the gates of Heaven would be closed to her also. Now consider baptism and the donator has been baptised and saved from all past, present and future sin. Then of course she would have to be allowed into heaven. But what of her eyes? could the present recipient of the eyes also be saved for the past baptism of the eyes for their sake?

And what of heart transplants? The human heart once considered the very center of life itself. If the heart was still beating you were still living. This of course is no longer true. You can long be dead and your heart can still be pumping away forcing the blood of life through the vanes of another. You are not completely dead your heart is still alive. Does this not present serious implications for both the donor and recipiant?

My dad lost a leg when he was a young man. Back in the days of his youth he had been quite a hell raiser, sinful and un-forgiven. At that time he was surely bound for Hell. His leg was dead and buried long before he was. He had probably kicked a lot of Christin ass with that leg. As he grew older he fell into Christin grace. He was baptised and saved from all his past sins. Was his leg cast into hell for all it sins or could it be un-baptised as it was forgiven for his sake and returned to him in heaven? He didn't take his peg-leg with him.

    Many Christians may find these questions simply redicelous. Are the body parts and organs of man capable of sin? Nevertheless I maintain these are complicated issues and should be given serious consideration. Are just parts of a man considered to be saved or the whole man?
     From the Scriptures: Mathew 5: 29,30. And if the right eye offends thee, pluck it out, and cast it from thee: For it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not that the whole body should be cast into hell. And if the right hand offend thee, cut it off and cast it from thee: For it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, And not that the whole body should be cast into hell.
     Mark 9: 43,46. And if thy right hand offend thee, cut it off: it is better for thee to enter into life maimed, than having two hands go into hell, into the fire that never shall be quenched: Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched. And if thi foot offend thee cut it off: it is better for the to enter halt into life, than having two feet to be cast into hell, into the fire that never shall be quenched: Where their worm dieth not and the fire is not quenched. And if thy eye offend thee, pluck it out: It is better for the to enter into the kingdom of God with one eye, than having two eyes be cast into hell fire: Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched.
     God said that? And how often my right hand has offended me. I like "Their worm dieth not" bit. I'm afraid at my age my worm dieth often, but a little mouth-to-mouth resuscitation restores it to life and the fire is quenched. Yes of course it's redicelous. The living cells of my body are grown from the living cells of my mother and father, as long as I live and my descendants live part of them live on in me. and in my children and grandchildren. They are not completely dead. We are kin to all life on earth. The living cells of our body are connected through evolution. As long as life remains in any form we are not completely dead, not in heaven, not in hell. Don't morn me when I'm gone for I am still with the.
     Evolution ah the thorn, I hear the shouts of protest now. There's no proof! But the evidence supporting it is pretty damn strong. To me much stronger than the fatasy of being created as a fully developed human organism from the dust of the ground. I believe I am much more than the dust of the ground. It seems to me God could have at least made me of gold, platinum, silver or some other precious metal.
     And if thi brain offends thee, pluck it out: And cast it from thee. For it is better for thee to enter into the kingdom of God an idiot without a brain than having the whole body cast into hell into the fire that never shall be quenched: Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched.

Now let us assume that a Christian is saved. Now naturally his heart is saved also. Suppose he has a heart transplant from a sinner and the sinner's heart offends him. Now he can't very well pluck it out and cast it from him. So now his whole body is cast into hell with the offensive heart. Where the worm dieth not and the fire is not quenched. Ah, but the saved heart all alone out there never offended anyone, just gave out before he did. A forgiven heart out there all by it lonesome, without a body. So now comes judgment. Saint Peter pretty much has to let the saved heart in doesn't he? So now we have a heart all by its lonesome just beating away up there in heaven without a body. ha ha ha ha ha ha lmao.
