Thank you so much it's really so helpful and full of information I just had a project about how different cultures view the concept of death and I just found everything here every single detail thank you for your hardworking and for sharing 🤗🤗
Useful video thank you. A comment on your slide about Buddhism: there is no explicit injunction in Buddhism to expect or not expect organ donation (though part of the teachings cover giving one's life to help others). I know many Buddhists who sign up for organ donation because of helping others survive/reducing suffering. Some do have some disquiet about organ donation (for example in some traditions not wanting to disturb the dead body for a period). It's an intensely personal choice: the focus is often brought back to the core Buddhist precepts as a basis and down to the individual. The precepts (including kindness, generosity, honesty, simplicity, mindfulness & awareness) aren't commandments. There's useful guidance on the UK National Health Site (search for "NHS A Buddhist perspective on organ donation") I wasn't clear which denominations are covered by "Christianity" (eg protestant) given that Catholicism has its own slide.
its crazy, its so important to have some kind of way to moarn and process death...even if doing it is expensive feels like money shouldnt get in the way or like you should create a way to make sure that persons life which was special is respected despite your own beliefs. anyways never thought to look at a medical perspectice overview of religion diverse belief on death to help my death anxiety.
I am a buddhist and am unsure on where/why you believe organ donation is not permitted? Not being allowed to donate after death almost goes against our core values..
This was very early. It was an oral thing because most deaths were due to disease so to prevent its spread, it was banned orally. However, today if lord Buddha was alive, I am sure he would permit it.
The fact that different religions believe in contradictory after-death stories is an indication that most if not all are wrong. I demonstrate this and a lot more in my book '"Divine Projection: How and Why Humans Created God."' People who believe that when our brain dies we no longer exist in any form (aside from a memory in the minds of those who survive us) are most likely to be right. Everything else is ancient superstition.
The "Christian" section is pretty bad, and as it is discussed relative to "Catholic" (also Christian), it reveals ignorance about Catholicism too. Near incredibly arrogant to presume to discuss "Christian" or "the Buddhist culture". What, thousands of years of different traditions, scholarship and inculturation all over the world!? For heavens/heaven's sake!
The wages of sin is death but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord 🙏 Romans 6:23 You have sinned against God by breaking his laws and commands and a just God will demand a punishment for evil but because he is rich in mercies and full of grace he has offered you a chance out of eternal damnation through the sacrifice of Jesus Christ the lamb who was slain to cover the sin of the world , repent and turn from your sins and realize your transgressions go to Jesus and beg for his forgiveness he will not turn you away
