Provide a detailed presentation which is organized according to the following format:
PART I – Provide a brief Introductory Summary (Must include a clear Thesis Statement).
PART II – Provide a clear Christian position regarding the allocation and donation of human organs.  Provide clear biblical support and rationale.
PART III – Explain whether or not individuals without insurance (such as inmates, immigrants, etc.) should be given the same access to transplantation as those individuals with health insurance.
PART IV – Outline a potential structure of allocation which could ethically categorize and determine how organs might best be distributed (or where someone is placed on the organ donation waiting list). Describe if, or when, a random lottery or a first-come, first-serve system should be used.
