This a sick and twisted policy that the cult has and is the main reason I will never go back. Its truly a religion by the stupid for the stupid, their reasoning's on this subject make no sense what so ever. -

Did I not read on this board somewhere , that the governing Body had a letter/policy of some sort absolving any" Witness" from responsibility , leaving the decision to be made by the medical staff treating the patient ?
A letter/policy that has not been made available to the rank and file even though it was drafted some months even years ago ?
If this is truly the case , then surely the family would have a good case of suing the Watchtower organization of failing in their duty of care for their members ,withholding potentially life saving information that could have saved a life.
Was it a Marvin S. post ?

I wasn't stupid. I was indoctrinated, misled, trusting, naïve maybe. Looking back I feel stupid but that's not the point.
Labeling Jehovah's Witnesses as 'stupid' isn't going to help them and it's rather unkind in any case.
Now, certain individual Jehovah's Witnesses certainly are as dumb as a bag of spanners but let's not taint the whole group by the vacant mind space of a cerebrally challenged few.

What a waste.
And all for some imaginary, Patriarchal, Iron Age god who is invisible, silent, and impotent.
