Not really. It's very foreseeable injustices that come with inequitable and invidiously discriminatory laws.

When you try to take the natural order away from something, bad stuff happens.

True. What sounds good in the moment usually has far reaching consequences that the "let's stick it to them" crowd never seems to realize. Will Kansas now be going back to look at every child conceived with donor sperm and applying the same demands? Doubtful, unless the gays were involved somehow.

That isn't true. If you only have one kidney, you have no right to donate it. Your atheistic world of radical personal autonomy is moral anarchy. The fact is that you don't own your body. God does, and He gives others the right to its benefits.

You know damn well I was referring to someone with two healthy kidneys and I noticed you ignored the blood part. People donate blood all the time, heck I am sure you have thrown away plenty of sperm over the years.

Funny, it sounds like you are the one that is in need of help, simply because you do not understand what the word "donor" means.

And you know damn well that donating spare kidneys or blood for transplants, hair for cancer patients, or excrement for composting is totally beside the point. Try addressing the argument.
