Jehovah's Witnesses knocking?
The hypocrites are thick, I'm afraid. Still, such evil was found in heaven itself, until ousted. Don't oust yourself. Deal with these crimes the way that has always been available for you. The Elders, and the Police. If I ever saw a rape, I'd call the police. If the rapist accuses me of lying, and the victim can't support me ... too bad, I'd do it again. Such could happen in or out of the brotherhood, but you see something like that, you call the police. And if it's in the brotherhood, you call 'all' authorities. Also, if you have reasonable suspicion, like your child telling you. You tell 'all' authorities, The police may be able to obtain info, statements and evidence satisfying the elders. You may or may not want to tell the Elders first. (depending on what exactly happened, or whether the elders are a help or a hindrance to getting the situation taken care of.) Your own one on one with Jehovah should be able to let you know if an elder is out of line in this important situation. And fear of reprimand wouldn't stop any who love their children. I would not have been confused about this, 20, nor 40 years ago. I don't like confused people who don't call the police when they know of such a crime.— April 16, 2010 2:10 p.m.

Fractions are readily available from animal blood. HBOC is bovine. Seperating blood from its owner has become more scientific and involved. Blood minus blood fractions is still whole blood. ( We have always allowed the clotting factor because whole blood minus the clotting factor is still whole blood.) Also, since I've been in,(50 yrs) we've always allowed things made 'from' blood, but not 'of' blood. (antivenoms, vaccinations, etc.) The reason we don't take blood is because its sacred, but the issue we're forced to confront is "are we passing up a good medical thing?" No. One blood transfusion wiped out Paul Michael Glaziers family. That's just the tip of what's in the denial file. As for all the carnage we've havoced refusing blood, controlled studies are better. Google bloodless hospitals. In existance for decades, these show no such grim statistics. Opposite! Regards. Margarett— April 14, 2010 1:24 a.m.

1914 - Compare the events to Jesus statements on the mount of olives and the four horsemen. Is Armageddon in our day? Well, it has to happen before an all out WW3. Blood: We don't take it because of its sacredness, but we're also not passing up a good medical thing. One blood transfusion wiped out Paul Michael Glaziers family. Tip of the iceburg of what's in the denial file. Bloodless Hospitals,however,...in existance for decades, ... report no such grim statistics for going bloodless. Children: Woe to all who have children in these days. Jesus own statement. False Prophets: Jesus was warning about 'visable' sightings, stressing in same script that his coming would be like lightning. "Everywhere." And though not visable ... very discernable. Judge a tree by 'its' leaves. We have brochures on every subject. www.watchtower.org— April 12, 2010 1:11 p.m.
