Description

Why the concept of "brain dead" is incorrect. Determining the time of death. On what type of blood is the prohibition against drinking blood? What are the three vital organs according to the Rambam? Does one have to do extraordinary methods to extend the life of a dying person, living with extreme pain? Who decides if one wants to have a risky procedure to extend ones life? Is suicide ever permitted? Can one be podeh an eglah arufa? Why is the day called Yom Hakipurim(plural)? Chumas-Emor: adults are required not to give forbidden foods to a minor. Can one place a retarded child in a goverment run non-kosher facility?
