In my country, everyone is an organ donor unless they specifically opt out. Usually due to religion.

I've been seeing organ transportation ambulances near my city's hospital from time to time. It's weird to see, but a good thing.

There should be no opt out, even for religion. No I do not respect your customs as much as I respect someone else's life.

I agree. I think people who choose to opt out for selfish reasons should be placed lower on the list. It's inmensely hypocritical.
