I have always believed that the soul is seperate to the body - whilst it is contained within us while we are alive, once we die the soul moves on to Heaven. It is the same when I visit someone's grave. I am paying my respects to them, but I know that was is buried below is not really them - just their body. The soul is intended to live for eternity, whereas our body has a finite time. So for me, organ donation is not an issue. If my death means that someone else's life is prolonged then I think that is a wonderful gift.

I know that organ donation is difficult for some of my family - but it is more to do with how the body is treated after death in order to harvest the organs. But I know if I asked them if they had an issue about it because of the soul - they would all say no as they don't see organs and the soul as being combined.
