How a jW can 'get away with' taking blood

Tallyman

All you have to do is pay some (phony) penance and a variation of the following:

Day 1 in Hospital - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

HLC to jW Patient: Did you take blood today?

jw Patient to HLC: Yes, but I had a horrible accident
and lost 70 percent of my volume
and besides, I'm sorry.

HLC to jW Patient: Well, okay.

Day 2 in Hospital - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

HLC to jW Patient: Brother, we understand you took blood again
today. 3 pints, we were told.
We may have to recommend disfellowshipping.

jw Patient to HLC: Oh, well, my sutures ruptured and I lost a lot
of blood and they had to do something quick,
and besides, I'm STILL sorry.

HLC to jW Patient: Well, as long as you are repentant.

jw Patient to HLC: Oh, you can be assured I am.
My family is all in the truth and I don't want
them to believe I am un-theokratic.

Day 3 in Hospital - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

HLC to jW Patient: What's going on? We heard you took blood again!

jw Patient to HLC: Yeah, but it was just one more pint.
They needed to top me off and I am well now...
and I just want to say that it was just
ONE more moment of weakness and I'm just as
sorry today as I was three days ago.

HLC to jW Patient: Okay. See you at the Kingdom Hall.
Maybe at the upcoming Circuit Assembly,
we can use your experience to show the brothers
a sterling example of true repentance.

jw Patient to HLC: You betcha!

Tallyman,

You didn't mention that UK hospitals sometimes offer their patients Black Pudding for breakfast.

Here's the recipe:

Black Pudding
Ingredients:
1/2 lb of pigs liver
1 1/2 lb of lard, chopped
15 cups of pigs blood (no drinking this while you cook)
1 lb of bread crumbs
2 1/2 cups of water (use the water left over from cooking the liver)
1 cup of rolled oats
1 onion, chopped
1/2 tsp allspice
1 tsp sage
1 tsp thyme
Salt and pepper
Poach the liver in boiling salted water. Drain it and keep 2 1/2 cups of the water. Chop up the liver.
Mix all the ingredients in a bowl.

Pack into an oiled heatproof bowl. Cover with wax paper and aluminum (or aluminium if you're from Ireland) foil. Tie the foil down securely over the bowl.

Steam for 4-5 hours. Remove it from the bowl and let sit until cold. Cut into disks about 3/4 inch thick and 2 inches round, like cookies. Fry until crisp on both sides.

Serve with bacon, sausages, fried eggs, grilled or fried tomatoes.

MMMMMMmmmmmmm!

YUMMY!
Englishdude, now we know why you are smacking and licking your lips.

What jW 'on the mend' could possibly resist a Breakfast Treat like that??
They'll just have to scarf it down early before the HLC arrives.

Englishman,

Thanks for posting the recipe. I just tossed my Wheaties.

p.s. Tally that was funny

I note that some JW apologist on the newsgroup has taken issue with your mention of "disfellowshipping - he trots out the old (well, new, actually) line that this was never a disfellowshippable offence; it just means you disassociate yourself. These are the same people who say they never got excited over 1975 too...

HLC to jW Patient: Did you take blood today?

Just a question, is the HLC can asked this kind of question
to the Jw Patient, is there this kind of pression in this
case ?

We will have a new law in french about the "état de sujétion"
(when an adult can't think by himself) it is very important
to know what the HLC says in this kind of situation.

Thanks in advance.

Bye

Steph,

Couldn't find this "jW Apologist" who takes exception that a jW who takes blood is buying his ticket to the Judicial Kommittee.

This kind of KultJoker tries to raise the Watchtower Flag up the pole and see if anyone will salute. Their worst enemy is information, and the ABSOLUTE worst information can be found in their own literature:

In view of the seriousness of taking blood into the human system by a transfusion, would violation of the Holy Scriptures in this regard
subject the dedicated, baptized receiver of blood transfusion to being
disfellowshiped from the Christian congregation?

The inspired Holy Scriptures answer yes...
According to the law of Moses, which set forth shadows of things to come, the receiver of a blood transfusion must be cut off from God's people by excommunication or disfellowshiping...

if in the future he persists in accepting blood transfusions or in donating blood toward the carrying out of this medical practice upon others, he shows that he has really not repented, but is deliberately opposed to God's requirements.

As a rebellious opposer and unfaithful example to fellow members of the Christian congregation he must be cut off therefrom by
disfellowshiping.

"like cookies. Fry until crisp on both sides. "

Don't you people KNOW what pudding is???

Black pudding, Yourkshire pudding--these are not puddings! Think more like Tapioca, or Jello instant pudding, there you go!
