JW's were allowed to take blood at one time?

    It would seem to me then that the 'Organization' is not as united as it claims to be. If certain ones are disfellowshiped for taking blood and now sine 2000 they're considered as disassociated. Do different countries and areas act in different ways.

    Gawd, the grey areas are so confusion that I can't keep up.

    Either something is wrong completely, or it's not. Black or white... I don't understand the need to make all the grey areas... it's because they keep changing and people don't realize it.

    This is from the Dutch edition of Consolation, Sep 1945 (my translation)

    "God never issued provisions prohibiting the use of medicines, injections or blood transfusion. It is an invention of people who, like the Pharisees, leave Jehovah's mercy and love aside".

    All I know is the society is messed up. They always do that crap of saying one thing, and then changing it again for no reason. Then they wonder why people leave, and don't believe a damn word they say. I know this much, I have no problem donating blood now. I certainly don't have a problem taking a blood transfusion if that will save my life.
