I don't blame the Witness people for being skeptical of the Society after what the Society did to the Witness people with the voting article. The Witnesses are really faced with three separate dynamics to every issue now. One, is what the Society puts in print; Two, is what the Society really wants; and Three, is . . . what does Jehovah allow?
Witnesses are taught life is cheap and death is a temporary sleep and loyalty is the real issue. The Witness people have been taught that loyalty to core doctrine is required for salvation and "no blood in any form" is a core doctrine.
The Society has trained the Witnesses for decades to have a martyr complex and a self sacrificing attitude. The other thing the Society is completely missing is the sales axiom. The sales axiom says, the confused mind always says "NO!". The Society is trying to sell the Witness people the blood medical fraction treatment idea with confusion and many Witness people are saying NO.
So, the Society comes back in a few months and presents the same confusing information again and the Witness people still say NO. Many Witness people are thinking that the Society is testing them, like they were taught was done to them with past teachings such as the predictions related to 1975.
The Society hasn't removed the confusion, they've made it worse. They currently teach that taking blood is wrong, and taking blood is okay . . . at the same time. This ain't gonna work! This is an end time group and salvation from death at God's hand is the end goal.
Two things need to be done. The Society needs to remove the current confusion so the Witness people can say "Yes!", and they need to guarantee salvation to people who take blood treatment.
