    Recently I saw a news report after a terrorist attack in Israel, that stated when a Jewish person dies all his/her remains must be buried with him/her. This means if an autopsy is done all samples must be returned to the famiy for burial. My question are these: are Jewish people forbidden under Talmudic law from donating organs? Are they forbidden from accepting donated organs? If they cannot donate but can accept organs, how is this rationalized as being fair?
