What Has Religion Done To Us- A True Life Story by contactwale: 7:41am On Nov 21, 2012 |
NB: For those who read upside down, please note that this did not happen to me. I only copied the story from the NET I got the first phone call just before 1:00pm, UK time. This was Tuesday 13th November 2012. It was from my sister in Lagos. She was frantic. Our younger brother’s wife was bleeding, losing a lot of blood, laid out on a bed at the National Hospital, Abuja. She had just delivered a baby, their second in just over two years. My sister informed me that despite serious pleas from everyone in the family, from clinical staff at the hospital, and from concerned strangers, my brother refused to give his consent for his wife to have blood transfusion. NB: For those who read upside down, note again that this story did not happen to me. I only copied it from the NET |

I couldn’t believe that an educated man (he has a Master’s degree from the University of Ibadan) I'm not surprised,I'm sure he had a M.sc in stupidity Stupidity is seeing the obvious but choosing to believe the lies |

This is where my JW brothers are completely out of order !! This also happened to someone I knew , only in his case he refused to take his sick daughter , aged about 8 years , to hospital for treatment. She eventually died. Main reason why following cults and MEN will trip you into a ditch. |

I even wonder if the deceased husband's wife is a Jehovah's Witness to and if she would've agreed to what was being done to her if she had been conscious and able to make her own decision. |

frosbel: This is where my JW brothers are completely out of order !! U are all the same. Its the same way a guy would have the guts to slap a young girl and say he was right; how a man would have the heart to rob thousands, buys private jets and roll in a governor's convoy, watching his congregation trek, sweating under the sun; its the same way a man would look down on women, calling them inferior; its the same way a parent would chase their helpless children out of their homes becos some silly pastor termed them witches; its the same way churches keep emphasizing on money and causing noise pollution, not minding who they are disturbing. U are all delusioned. 3 Likes |

inurmind: An in law of mine died cos when she got ill at childbirth instead of taking her to the hospital my cousin took her to church for prayers. How is that any different from the OP? Pentecostal Church o! I'm sure almost every family in Nigeria has one or two such stories. This is a case of epidemic proportions. Yet they have a right to do their live anyway that they want to do it. and feel superior as they do it. Clear eyes for other people delusions but a total failure to see your own delusions. Humanity is really something special. 1 Like |

All the Jehovahs Witnesses in the house come and defend your religion. I am even sure that a percentage of you would allow your children to die because of your religious beliefs |

@ OP, All those who had the chance to give consent 'to save the life' of that young lady but refused have blood on their hands. ... but one question: Why wasn't the lady asked for her consent for the transfusion? She is adult and capable of giving consent and the consent of relatives was not more important than hers at that critical point. Waste of a young life! Those infants were callously robbed of their mother by their own mis-guided relatives! What a shame! |

Minion: Ur Painfulness! Is religion really this bad? Hades: Religion is only bad when you follow your god and leave your brain behind. Mortals are foolish. Why abandon your brain? The brain that was given to you by the highest powers Minion: I do not agree with you, My Lord! Religion is the bed-rock of human civilization! Hades:Human civilization, You say! There was a period when religion ruled the world far and wide. No-one could go against its norms. That time was called the DARK AGES! Minion: The matter of the soul is of utmost priority. Anything can be sacrificed Hades: Foolish being! Do not be blinded, open your eyes Minion: I want no more of this talk, my Lord! 2 Likes |
