    She's under some serious mind control. What's this about the Society buying machines and heading the charge for bloodless facilities? What facility would not have blood stocked for emergencies? I get the reasoning why a blood tranfusion should not be the "goto solution" because of it's risks, but why completely keep it off of the premesis? The only thing the Witnesses have done is made a lot medical practioneers cry over losing children on their watch. Extorting the medical community by forcing them to kill your children to bend to them to the will of a cultic interpretation of Acts 15 is not my idea of heroism. The opposite, actually.

    Jehovah's organisation have always permitted blood fractions and have always considered this as a conscience matter.

    What???? I became a witness in 1956 and blood fractions were not allowed until about 1978. It was not a conscience matter up until then.

    Bonnie_Clyde - Its a typical example of how younger JWs have no idea about their own history.

    Reading a lot of Russell's and Rutherford's books convinced me they were all making it up as they go along.
