It doesn't, that's why you have to take immuno suppressant drugs, so your body doesn't reject it.

And Jehovas - they cannot accept or donate. How will they get around that.

Also Scientologists.

They could opt out but I'm sure there will be cases where "mistakes are made" which is unacceptable IMO.

Under Jewish law, organ donation has met increasing acceptance as medical transplantation methods have improved. In both Orthodox Judaism and non-Orthodox Judaism, the majority view holds that organ donation is permitted. In some cases, rabbinic authorities believe that organ donation may be mandatory, whereas a minority opinion considers any donation of a live organ as forbidden.[1]

In favor of organ donation, most authorities rely on the overarching principle (pikuach nefesh) that requires extraordinary actions to preserve or save life.

Another issue is Jews donating organs to non Jews. Some say that because every man is created in the image of God pikuach nefesh spreads to non-Jews also. Also, there is a fear of enmity between Jews and non Jews so rabbis say that pikuach nefesh has to apply to non Jews also, because there is already a complaint in the medical world about Jews being willing to receive organs but not give organs. In addition, by putting yourself on an organ list there is a possibility that a Jew on the list will be bumped up if a non-Jew is given your organ.

Overall, according to many Halachic rulers, there is no Halacha that says you can't donate organs, and usually it is pikuach nefesh that gives people permission to donate. However, because of some dissenting Halachic rulers, it is advised to consult with a rabbi before making a decision.

It seems sensible in practice but I still don't know if its not something that should be opt in rather than opt out, shouldn't people make the decision for themselves?

They still can decide for themselves. The only difference is they must do it proactively.

There is nothing wrong with going to your grave sans a couple of organs. Actually there's alot wrong with going to your grave with some healthy organs. They magotts violate your body anyway. Actually it would be more dignified to have some of your organs live on.

I just think it should be opt in rather than opt out. And you have to wonder if people's paperwork wouldn't be deliberately lost to give someone an organ. What if someone is a viable donor but their identity's unknown at that stage? I'd have no problem donating my organs but I still think people should be given the choice, not have their consent presumed.
