Really? You have not been paying attention. Look back at this forum as I'm not going to repeat it.

It is you evading my question.

My already answering you is not evading. It's you not understanding or not wanting to. Gotta go to work......

I have followed it with interest. There is nothing in the Bible about "the dangers of blood transfusions". Which passages do you think substantiate your claim?

This doesn't answer my question either.

FMF is asking you if [your version of] Jehovah would be pleased or displeased if a child died because the parents had withheld a blood transfusion?

It's an excellent question and one which if you are confident in your doctrine on this matter, should feel more than comfortable answering succinctly.

I find it sad that all the Christians here at RHP are avoiding the question I asked about feeding your child blood to keep them alive. It's clearly a puzzling question and one that would expose the tranfusion issue as being also wrong.
Perhaps the point has been made.

I've a answered it. Everyone else has probably lost the will to live. I do notice however that you are avoiding FMF's question. As I've answered you, will answer this:

Would [your version of] Jehovah would be pleased or displeased if a child died because the parents had withheld a blood transfusion?

Didn't you once say that whether or not a JWs receives a blood transfusion is a "matter of personal conscience"?

So why the big deal about prohibiting it?

Same question to Galveston75

probably missed this among your other attempts to divert the discussion.

i will answer it just so you don't get the false impression you "got us".

yes, if there is a proven medical benefit, i would feed blood to children, adults, cats. i would do that even if the benefit is mild.

medicine doesn't have to be pretty and delicious. it has to prevent death and ideally to improve a patient life.


we do radiotherapy, chemotherapy for cancer patients. in the overwhelming majority of those cases, the patients would die otherwise. we give them what is essentially poison and you whine about giving another human something far more bening, a blood transfusion.
