Are u serious? Pls can u enlighten me on this? Wow!
Christianity is not against saving lives through blood transfusion, that is why Christians donate blood for free as a service to humanity .

Also the fact dat u are born in a Christian, Muslim or not religious is not compulsory u should follow suit. A child dat wants to live should be allowed to live. Freedom of life is guaranteed to any law abiding human beings.
when the child is 18 bro.....have u not heard about that before

Says the law. When healthcare givers feel the babies require a treatment parents or caregivers do not approve of they take over care of the babies.

You don't even think children have a right to get healthcare? Lol

If children didn't have any rights not that lagos state govt wouldn't have been able to take over care of the patients

Your patient is your number 1 priority so saving the child's life is what is most important
u don't even know that parents have the right to pick what medical treatment they want for their child...u don't know that if a parent says he doesn't want so so thing the medical personal has no right to force d parents....just like an individual has d right to pick what form of treatment he wants, so is a parent having the right to pick what medical treatment he want for a minor....Lagos State govt will lose the case ......do u know how many of this cases happen in the United state? How many have u heard that d doc forced the blood transfusion for d child when d parents says no....you all claiming u know the law saying rubbish out of sentiment...the parents saying they don't want blood those not mean Dy want d child to die, they only ask for alternative treatment which could av been gotten had it been the hospital coperate with them and their religion....

As a son of an ex-witness, this and many more made us leave the group and made me less religious. I cannot fathom going against commonsense when it comes to health. And to think there are scientific folks who support the parents. shocked

So paul made a new law different from the mosaic law right?

Abstain from blood. Abstain from seeing abstain from touching abstain from eating abstain

Abstain from everything blood. Abstain from blood products or components or fractions.


Let's be sly together intact let's assume for paul. He must have meant what we are thinking.

You know he said abstain from fornication too. Since you assume blood fractions from blood donated by worldly people is ok what fraction of fornication should we accept?

You left with your parents cos you never made the truth your own.

My witness friend used to be from a witness family. Her witness father married her non witness mother and taught her the truth. Her father died and her mother remarried a fellow non witness. Now she's d only witness in her family and she's waxing stronger.

I've only studied with d witnesses for so long and i already have my convictions.

You shouldn't be less religious. Whether you live or die, you should live for Jehovah

I don't know the bible like many witnesses out there. I'm still studying. But Lemme try and take you on with the little I know.

But first, is it OK to conclude that you do not have that much regard for the bible?@d bolded?

Please lets not insult ourselves. Lets try and make logical arguments with all civility
It will interest you that "many witnesses out there" too don't know the Bible. They only bask in what your leaders have instructed/allowed them to know about the Bible. Reading the Bible and understanding it often leads one to become faithless. (As is was in my case.)

So don't ascribe that much glory on them just yet.

I don't have regard for the Bible because it endorses slavery, genocide, tribalism, homophobia, deceit and incredulity. Do you have regard for the Bible? If yes, why?

so you are a braindirty sensible. Learn not to talk like a slowpoke when u have problem with people's belief. Can you show me where in the scripture we were commanded to take blood as a form of treatment?
Your head is really paining you. One thing is to be blinded by religion another thing is not to know the difference between right and wrong ....You better pray for light

Damages for saving a child's life? I'll remind you of this post. Shey JWs branch will take up the case? Let's see
don't worry I will help with d reminder.....we can follow each other on naira land so that when d case end we will be able to reach each other...do u think it is only in Nigeria parents refuse blood for their minor? Why hasn't d govt of other countries sieze d child from d parents...let me give u a brief story in the u.s concerning this blood transfusion and jw.....over 40-50 years ago, this same type of case came up and the medical team forced the child to take blood against d will of the parents, they sued the medical team and u know what, they won. Not only did jw won, they also worked hand in hand with hospitals in the u.s to find alternative treatments for people needing blood maybe during surgeries or what av u and infact in a documentary aired sometime ago in the u s(u will see d video on YouTube) u will see some medical practitioners happy that Jehovah's witnesses refused blood cos it made them research on safer ways of treating people without the use of blood....if u are in d u s and u av any issue concerning blood transfusion just tell them u are a jw and see how they will quickly help u do arrangements of ur own treatment and even call the religion medical team.....no u .s doc will ever think of transfusing blood for a minor without d consent of the parents cos d law says the parents has the right to choose whatever medical treatment he want for the child .....mind u , cos this Nigeria parents said Dy don't want transfusion doesn't mean they said Dy don't want d child to be treated...my guy the story long but Lagos State govt will lose the case.

Thank you for your point. l'm sure the parents will not reject her. It pains me when people talk based on ignorance. Since the child is not 18 years old. The parents have the right to accept or refuse blood transfusion for their child.
i can't believe someone who can use the internet would really say this ...what is wrong with you people ? does religion not make you know the difference between right and wrong ? would you have preferred they let the baby die ??

Can you please explain to me the scriptural justification for accepting blood fractions? I'm waiting for your answer.

If you are really interested in getting answers you could visit the website...jw.org u will find interesting answers to whatever questions u have and if you have extra questions or need more discussion, u can just fill in a form on the website and a witness will be arranged to visit you

That wasn't really Paul. It was d GB.

You sound read. You must be following up on adjustments made on the issues of blood transfusion.

Yes abstain from whole blood, abstain from components.

Now witnesses are not zombies. Like Boreans in the book of Thessolonians, they read the bible thoroughly and build their individual consciences.

Now some of these witnesses argue that certain fractions of blood, after some filtration/seperation can no longer be considered blood, and science agrees. Afterall, these fractions are present in some drugs, some health processes like dialysis, neo-natal feeding etc

These arguments seem sound, and the GB agrees that if your conscience allows you, by all means, suit yourself. So some witness go for fractions, others insist that blood is blood and would not accept fractions of even their own blood.

When people who don't know call JWs a cult. I just laugh. The bible is the common manual for every witness as should be. In cases where the bible does not give a clear command, prayerfully follow your conscience.

Each witness is guided by their own personal convinctions. That is hardly a feature of a cult

toh, suit yourself with the name calling, still doesn't make a difference in stopping Jehovah's witnesses in following God's commandments concerning blood whether the world does it or not....
