Just more legal fiddling by the men who are really running the organisation these days: the lawyers!
Meantime, all the GB and it's committees can come up with in 10 years is a pathetic & trifling flip-flop on the generation understanding. Dumbasses

It looks as if the Society of Blind Leaders is trying to wash the blood of human sacrifice from off their hands. It is more difficult than they imagine because their past record shows they are well and truly guilty.They can run but they can't hide their blood guilt will stand up to the forensics.
Their crimes of causing death by deception will not go away.
Their crimes might haunt them in death .Charles Dickens might have been right when he wrote that as a warning to Scrooge he was visited by the ghost in chains who said " I forged them link by link while in life."
How many chain links have been forged on to their followers by the Watchtower Society?

Sorry guys- I think you all have it backwards. The HLC brothers presentations have the effect of informing Witnesses that they CAN accept certain treatments that most assume would not be acceptable. (You CAN have fractions, recirculation, etc.) It is well known that the GB is not unanimous on this issue and that some members of the GB would not personally accept fractions, etc. The direction sounds to me like a pullback. The "no fractions" camp got its nose out of whack that the HLCs are going around saying that fractions are OK.
Some HLC brothers talk about people lying in hospital beds not understanding the "new light" The HLC brothers have to explain and reason with the people that there are acceptable options.
Sorry- really twisted, I know. Up is down, down is up.

concerned that some HLC members are putting their own slant on the WTS "conscience matters".
You bet!
I've heard some of these talks. What I've heard is, "if you refuse to accept any fractions, and refuse to accept recirculation of your own blood, the vast majority of so-called 'bloodless hospitals' won't even accept you as a patient. If you want to have 'bloodless surgery', you must accept fractions & recirculation."
I.e., the talks scared the bejeezus out of the R&F, causing large numbers of them to blindly accept anything the WTS says is "acceptable".
I suspect the Society, or at least a prominent part of it, would prefer that the R&F refuse everything, and resents this "nudge" toward the "wrong side" of "conscience issues".
I suspect this recent prohibition on HLC talks is a reflection of the ongoing internal schism regarding blood - it seems the blood hardliners, those who would want to restrict anything & everything from being "acceptable", have won the latest battle.

HLC talks to cease
Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things. The Tower shalt faileth: but whether there be tract-campaigns, they shall fail; whether there be Hospital Liaison Committees, they shall cease; whether there be publisher gains, it shall vanish away.
