    • Do you donate blood?  Have you ever?  Is it moral?

    • Yes.  Donating your blood is moral.  I cannot even see a moral problem with selling your blood.

    I used to donate blood regularly until a few years ago when the blood bank decided that I was no longer an acceptable donor because I had lived in Europe during the mid-1980s and they say that the risk that I was exposed to "Mad Cow Disease" is too great to accept my blood.

    • I have not. I don't think it is immoral but I am not sure if there is a Church teaching on it.. It may actually be charitable.

    If anyone says that true and natural water is not necessary for baptism and thus twists into some metaphor the words of our Lord Jesus Christ" Unless a man be born again of water and the Holy Spirit" (Jn 3:5) let him be anathema.

    I think it is charitable. If nobody gave blood, then many more people would die in hospitals than do now because of the lack of blood.
