The Watchtowers Changing Stance On The Blood Doctrine by Yooguyz: 10:19am On Oct 27, 2013
The Watchtower is inconsistent in allowing blood fractions. This
is readily apparent when
considering the following.

"Jehovahs Witnesses do not accept transfusions of whole blood or the four primary components of blood namely, red
blood cells, white blood cells,platelets, and plasma. They also
do not donate or store their own blood for transfusion." Kingdom
Ministry Nov 2006 p.3

"Beyond that, when it comes to fractions of any of the primary components, each Christian, after
careful and prayerful meditation, must conscientiously decide for
himself." Watchtower 2000 Jun 15 p.31

1. If it is wrong for a Witness to donate blood, who do the blood
fractions they use come from?

2. If blood must be poured on the ground, where are the blood
fractions they use derived from?

3. If abstaining from blood does not allow taking a "major"
fraction, why does it allow a fraction of a fraction?

4. If blood fractions were always acceptable to Jehovah, who is
responsible for the Witnesses that needlessly died refusing them, due to Watchtower policy
forbidding them prior to the year 2000?

You forgot the part that says " Those Options are left for them to decide, they are not compelled to take any"

And Maybe this will shock you , don't be surprised that so many that call themselves Jehovah's witnesses. Go for blood transfusion secretly _ but as we all know the end result is not always so cool - I know you know -

do you think that witnesses who refuse to take blood during emergencies love doing it? How about does who refused to take factions of blood prior to when changes were made in the blood doctrine? How would they feel?
