Make no mistake – Jehovah’s Witnesses are extremists. It’s just that most people don’t know they are extreme because the unfathomable body count from the blood prohibition is unknown, and most people don’t have to personally deal with the gruesome reality of having their family needlessly dismantled, or seeing their molestation as a child swept under the rug.[color=#006600][/color]


Child molestation is a criminal offence... That you had evidence which could have led to a conviction for the offender, yet you refused to institute a legal case but instead waited for d church to take action for you makes you an accomplice to the child offender. That you seem to have d answers to caging a religious body yet could do nothing to help that violated child beats my imagination black and blue!

Every organisation has its rules. If you cannot abide by its rules, you are free get the heck out. No need to cunningly ambush the religion on this page just because you have an axe to grind with them.

Good day grin

But you saw abstain from blood

So Paul said abstain from blood you say it includes blood transfusion yet you accept autologous blood transfusion in the name of bloodless surgery highest hypocrisy. Well since the law was only to the gentiles then the Jews would have being obeying the law since so that law is abstaining from blood of animals.

Drugs are administered through veins. The bible was specific it said eat not consume. Anything can be consumed fRom visible to invisible. You consume energy does that mean you eat energy? Well I don't blame you when you are in an organisation that the governing body members don't know the difference between eating and consumption.

Acts 15:29 also uses the expression, "abstain from".

Things don't have to be introduced to the body or humans only. You can consume goods and services. Bible was specific it said eat not consume. Eating and consumption are not synonymous.
What about "abstain from"?


Bible prohibited eating blood of animals meant for food.
Logically, blood of animals not meant for food can be eaten?

Blood transfusion the human donor doesn't die and blood is not used as food.

Can you meditate and tell me why God prohibited eating of blood? There must be a reason. When we know the reason, the import of the message will be clear.

Not a JW..... but the Bible does not support blood transfusion.... blood is life..... the same why the blood of animals should be drained before eating the meat. I guess it's OK to store your own blood and reuse in a transfusion....but not the blood of another person. What I don't understand with JWs is they are against blood transfusion but support organ transplant..... when organ transplant cannot take place without blood transfusion.
@topic.... Russia is a secular state.... like China... so forget about religion/organisation... no difference. I guess if the JWs met at their place of worship... no problem.... but fanning out and going from door to door... peeking in people's homes.... nooooo..... more like a spy network.... that's not happening!

Pls where did d Bible say it doesn't support blood transfusion??

lol @ spy network. yeah, it does sure wanna look like that but, it isn't.
JW have houses themselves. some live in very comfortable houses, if we are less busy, I tell u,d sleep on bed can be so sweet, we wish to stay indoors ourselves, but, we can't.
preaching is shut up in our bones, we always gotta let it out. and dats because from house to house from door to door, on the streets in public places, you find a JW because, it's a command to preach!!! anywhere u find people, JW would breathe there.
Not against spreading the word.... but why must it be soo personal?..like hush hush?..."let's meet one on one in secrecy in the privacy of your home?"... why not be out there shouting the word in public and let those with ears hear?... never a revival... why?... Russia would not allow that and you should understand why.

This op murdered his brain the day he left jw. I was born a muslim and my father sent me out of home when i became a christian. JW dont do that and even God instructed the Israelites not to have intimate relationship with the nations around them because they were not his worshippers. I want to believe the poster does not really understand the scriptures well, he is not really rooted in the teachings and that made him half-baked jw. He might have been a black sheep of the family even before he left the religion.
And come to think of it, he has succeeded in bringing more people to read about JW while he thought he wanted to bring them down. The traffic as at now is almost 16k. God has used him in favour of the organization.

We don't need your support. You're just like Judas. You know the truth but you left. Family is very important but the body of Christ, the congregation is more important. It's better to have a broken family than a broken Christian congregation.

It's too obvious Jehovah is there for us as always. Check history.... Despite all these attacks... Jehovah's people are still increasing consistently.

When the time is right, Jehovah will act on our behalf. We are happy to be persecuted for righteousness sake.

Mehn this religion is bullshit. Which attacks and which increasing numbers when your numbers are falling in america europe asia n middle east even in Africa sef. The only place where it increased is democratic republic of Congo which has been a war torn country. I think they believe the world is about to end.

And mind you that you are increasing does not make jws the true religion. Islam is increasing every day more than expected

So you gladly await the day where your jehovah will kill 99.9% of earth's population to fight on your behalf. At least Russia is not killing you like the way your doctrine kills people and people being killed

People also get saved without diseases from blood too. If blood is life then using it to save life will be no problem for God. God never said abstain from blood transfusion
Blood is life....is more like blood is the soul of that person/animal. If you can. ... .find out about someone who took a blood transfusion.... or a heart transplant.... ask if there was any change in their character after the intervention..... you'll be surprised. Why you don't hear much about that is because it cannot be medically explained. Blood is life.
Isn't it blasphemy for you to say what God would like or wouldn't like?....and since when God has problems?..... don't ask me where... but the Bible warned about self righteousness.

Lol. There is lake of fire in the bible and there is hades. If you say blood transfusion is bad y accept autologous blood transfusion. This your bible is a twisted one. There is no blood transfusion in my bible. Like is your new world translation that is the best. Translation that they edit and put new words and remove words not in consonance with their beliefs every 10 years.

But as the new adviser of the world's government on JW matters, congratulations. No be today, we have weathered more. You can also go and spool reports about persecution of witnesses because of our rejection of any military duties Eritrea, South Korea, that should give you additional fodder for your mission.

If you buy want to buy a car and the car company tells you to read only the companies review on that car and not other people's own will you still buy that car?

Jws know jw.org is the only authentic website because jw.or says it (jw.org) is the only authentic website. Learn to handle criticism.

There are about 7 million jws in the world and they are being told to read only jw.org everyday don't you think they will have 16k. The 16k is even too small sef. Praising yourself by yourself.

Abstain from blood is not abstain from blood transfusion
In the bible I don't think there was a passage that said animals not meant to be eaten should be killed or sacrificed or their blood poured out.
Eating is not synonymous with transfusion

God said people should not eat blood of animals meant for food or sacrifice to him in respect of the life of the animal they should pour the blood out to the ground.
We don't sacrifice humans to God and we don't eat humans so don't say God told them to abstain from blood transfusion. The human donor does not die or his body eaten

I cannot assume any reason other than respect for the life of the animal. If God had other reasons he would have said it in the bible rather than wait for thousands of years to come for Nathan knorr in 1945 to give the reason and say God was specifically talking about blood transfusion.

It is advisable that they should go and form their own country were they will not be doing this things. They are hypocrites.
