This topic is a hard one to answer for a couple of different reasons. Do I think it's okay for someone to profit from their organs? If it were up to me I would say sure it's their body. But , when I look at it from a Christian standpoint I realize that our bodies are our temple. We should not harm them but only use them to bring glory to God. I can understand how someone may need the financial
help it can bring for them however I do not think it's for us to make this decision but rather God who created us. Thank you for listening and hope that makes sense! REPLY
