Where does China get so many organ donors?
« on: February 06, 2019, 10:44:06 AM »
https://www.wsj.com/articles/the-nightmare-of-human-organ-harvesting-in-china-11549411056?mod=itp_wsj&ru=yahoo

Article behind paywall but can be found elsewhere.  China does not have a robust history of organ donation.  Many more organs are available for transplant than there are voluntary donors. They have allegedly stopped the practice of using organs from prisoners sentenced to death.  There is growing suspicion that the PRC is now harvesting organs on demand from prisoners of conscience, such as Christians, Falun Gong members and the like.  These prisoners are subjected to medical tests, and their data presumably placed into a database.  When the call goes out for a liver with specific compatibility factors, that prisoner is found and 'harvested'.

Grisly story, if true.

I hope it isn't true, but wow. 

Adding to the glorious record of communism and autocratic governments.

With the USA’s allowing let alone funding of Planned Parenthood this country has no moral authority on the subject.

I’ve read speculations that a lot of human trafficking isn’t even for sex but organ harvesting for the worlds “ruling elite”. Who knows? I certainly don’t discount it out of hand.

Ten years ago I would never have believed we were allowing organ harvesting from aborted babies here in the USA.

The depths of evil out there would probably shock even the most cynical of us.

For the invisible things of him since the creation of the world are clearly seen, being perceived through the things that are made, even his everlasting power and divinity, that they may be without excuse. Because knowing God, they didn’t glorify him as God, and didn’t give thanks, but became vain in their reasoning, and their senseless heart was darkened. Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools.

I don't believe I'd be shocked by ANYTHING the Chicom government does.

(Isn't China the country that would bill the family of people they executed for the bullets used to kill their loved ones?)
