The society really should have to pay the entire legal costs of the idiotic cases they bring forward. Not only are they burning a fortune in public legal costs, but the health care professionals that should be at the hospital are tied up in court.
Someone should sue the society for misappropriate public health resources.
The Watchtower forked tongue is evident when, after acknowledging blood transfusion is therapy as the only viable treatment to preserving life in a specific patient presentation, its official representative states things such as:
“We, too, like the author, would never recommend that the child be allowed to die.”—Eugene Rosam, Director of Hospital Information Services at Watchtower Bible and Tract Society, H E C Forum, 1996; 8(4) p 208
“No reasonable person would want to support a religious belief that is interpreted as bringing death to children.”—Eugene Rosam, Director of Hospital Information Services at Watchtower Bible and Tract Society, H E C Forum, 1996; 8(4) p 210
Shane Brady does not represent the interests of the parents or the children. He represents the interest of the Watchtower Bible and Tract Society, Inc. If anyone doubts this all they need to do is ask him whether his services for these parents would continue if they chose to allow blood transfusion.
I agree with the actual written words from Eugene Rosam. No reasonable person would want to support a religious belief that is interpreted as bringing death to children. Admittedly, the Watchtower states, “In former times thousands of youths died for putting God first. They are still doing it, only today the drama is played out in hospitals and courtrooms, with blood transfusions the issue.” (Watchtower Bible and Tract Society, Awake 22, 1995 p 2) So, as it turns out, no one has to interpret the religious belief of the Watchtower as to whether it brings death to children—the Watchtower organization has admits it brings death to children! Hence, according to fellow Watchtower rep. Eugene Rosam, Shane Brady and the Watchtower organization are unreasonable.

THe father refers to his babies as sextuplets.......Like the medical wanted to take all of them away. They would help the parents to give birth to a healthy(er) twin.
That is a whole different image. He is trying to play the role of victim and thus trying to get sympathisers.
Dispicable.
In our cong NO elder wanted to give any enlightening comments on the ethical implications of this case and given the fact that this is a huge story in that corner of the world: My JW sources out there are deafeing silent. The only comment they offered was: take note: the slave will send there best and brightest and will win.
Sigh......

When I was at Vicki's case in court I went up to him & said ""better than waiting on tables eh ??? That is what he used to do, he asked "were you at Bethel?" I replied YES!!!!! well I visited it a few times so I wasnt lying was I? Glen helped him become a Lawyer. he kept passing him peices of paper through out the whole case. SO added "I bet you wish that was money old Glens passes you ? "
Mouthy, you are so bad!!! You are certainly not afraid to call it how you see it, are you?
So, are the couple admitting to have used infertility treatments?
Well, it's safe to sue now that the babies are out of real danger.
Walk a mile in that persons shoes..................
I dont know how many of you were once devout believing Jehovahs Witnesses, but for those that were, perhaps you can empathise slightly with the situation this couple found themselves in. I have been there and know exactly how it feels to have a prem baby and be faced with blood issue......................it is completely shitty..........my own experience was like having my heart pulled out of me..........and it was the worst dilemma I have ever faced. My son was given blood transfusions and in my heart I was pleased beyond words, sadly he didnt live.
What I do find amazing is that they are now pursuing this ridiculous claim and can only think that they are being actively encouraged by the WTS and this Brady chap. It seems bizarre to me.............I would just be grateful at for the lives of my surviving children. Very, very strange!!
Mouthy, you are so bad!!!
Truthsearcher you JUST noticed that..??/ Your a slow learner I am going to get a lot badder before I kick the bucket

The WTS has a very bad habit of exploiting its followers in this manner to see if they can acquire legal precedents for future cases. It's all about setting precedents in court. Once the precedent is set, it's very difficult to knock it down. There's nothing the WTS loves more than taking an issue all the way to the Supreme Court.
Does anyone have any idea how much it costs to take a case like this all the way to the Supreme Court? The WTS must make a huge dent in all the Voluntary Donations™ they receive toward the Worldwide Work™ with all the legal expenses they have to cover. It would be interesting to know just how much money is involved, so Joe Publisher could make an informed decision about donating.
Born 4 months premature, and that retard lawyer wants to know why the infants were given blood transfusions... Good to see the University of Awake still going strong.
