Standing For The Right To Life No Matter What
I am going to attempt to answer a difficult question which is whether your soul leaves your body when you are brain dead. Bain dead is when your brains suffers a catastrophic injury that leaves your brain with a persistent flat electroencephalogram reading but your body is still living and still trying to keep you alive as God designed it to do. It is also trying to either repair or circumvent the damage. It does not give up until true death.
God designed the human body very well and it can do amazing things to get over the abuse of this corrupt world. So the idea than you can not recover from being “brain dead is a complete myth.
Even when a region is so badly damaged the brain may use another region to replace its function and thus restore some semblance of use. This is called Neuroplasticity.
You can go from being non conscious to being conscious so the liberal theory that non consciousness means death is nonsense. Brain dead individuals are woken up after given sleeping pills.
There is little I know about the human body butit is enough to convince me those who support the "brain dead" theory are lying or are being fooled.
In addition science is making huge strides so that advances now account for miracles like having the blind see. One experiment is with rodents where their sight is restored by nanotechnology. Another experiment has transferred new neurons generated in one part of the brain and plugged them into the brain in another where they began working.
These organ donors are in scant supply while the demand while the demand for their organs keep going up. There is a lot of money involved in this industry and that is most likely one motivation for the deception.
The doctors may see it as a triage decision where they are sacrificing one human who might recover to some extent from the damage for several others whose life might be saved by his or her organs. The family members on the other hand are being deceived and making the call because they believe their loved one is dead or because they figure it is better to be dead than disabled.
I am a kidney disease patient and face the choice whether to have one of these people who have their own families and friends killed for my personal benefit. I do not have that right whether the Government said so or not and my God condemns the actions of those who would do or condone such a terrible deed.

Source 2 is definition of Neuroplasticity

Source 5 is about scientist moving neurons from one part of the brain to another.

nice thoughtful post Kerwin..the respect for human life has been so trivialized..nice to be reminded of the sacredness.
Why do you have kidney disease?
Judging by you blog I would assume it is due to years of drug abuse.
M,
My kidney disease is a genetic affliction. In over 100 years a number of my family members have had it. God test us all in one way or another.
SO, when you're braid dead, is that like being bald?
M: I'll take your snide, irrelevant remark as a smokescreen for having no argument to pose.
Kerwyn: Always look up. You show remarkable faith. God bless.
Anomy,
I am glad all the errors you noticed was one misspelling since I can not afford to pay a copy editor. I have corrected it.
I prefer to address people by their name or a non offensive pseudonym. Could you please use one or another in the future?
Boo,
You should read source number three before making a comment about it. Source 3 states that is was a GP(who I believe is a General Medical Practitioner) that made the discovery. Are you stating doctors do not know what they are doing when the try to help the sick and the ill?
"I am going to attempt to answer a difficult question which is whether your soul leaves your body when you are brain dead. "
You never addressed that difficult question Kerwin. Does the "soul" leave the human body when you are brain dead?
Wait...
Before you answer your own "difficult question" you should probably give a solid definition of a "soul". Any tangible evidence you have would be helpful.
M,
I have never heard of a method to scientifically prove life exists and yet to define life biologist look for characteristics that are present when they observe that life is. You can do the same with the soul and so one quality that is present is consciousness. I can scientifically prove that the soul does not exist before consciousness but in all cases consciousness is present a soul is also believed to be present. When you wake up a person from the brain dead state it then follows that their soul is present so unless their soul came rushing back it was present when they were in an unconscious state of mind.
There is also a legal definition that was made in the English Common Law which is the backbone of the law of the United States. I believe Louisiana who uses the Napoleonic Code instead is the only exception to that rule. The legal definition is based on the Theological/Philosophical teachings of Aquinas and equates the soul being present when life is. He also taught life can be assumed to be present by the detection of movement.
