(((Mouthy))) You already know that I have the utmost respect for you
1st of all I respectfully disagree, 1st, we could call the doctors murderers because they refused to administer the blood. But they are not, because their hands were tied and they simply could not perform their duty. The JW who dies have their hands & minds tied. They are victims same as you were a victim. The GB are not followers of themselves, they are the ones who lay down these unbiblical doctrines and go about changing thier minds later at their lesiure. They should have examined all avenues before they even opened their killer mouth.
2) Isnt that what they are BLIND-??? would you condem a blind man cos he cant see?No well they are BLIND
I certainly would not condemn a blind man who accidently shot me in the foot, grace at all costs. But I would condemn him if he took a knife and deliberately stabbed me and my family over and over again while shouting "This is a mistake".
I do not believe they are blind. Remember Bill Cetnars story? He went to the place where they make vaccinations and asked them where is the blood that goes into these vacs? They said there wasnt any blood. Bill then went and passed that message on to the GB, so they knew their doctrine was wrong. Did they immediately send for all CO's & DO's and get the message around quickly that JWs could have vaccinations? Nope. But they could have, it took them approx 1 week to get the message around to all the UK CO's & DO's that Bill Bowen was going to be at the UK Bethel. They even called an emergency meeting to let all the elders know that they were not guilty of protecting child abusers. Why couldnt they have done the same with Organ transplanst & Vaccinations?
All congregations knew that Panorama was going to show on TV, it was announced from the platform, they could have quickly dont the same with Vacs, serums, organ transplants and even now with the blood fractions being allowed. Yet they make no such move, its only been recently that JWs are beggining to realise that blood fractions are allowed.
My point is, they were not blind, they knew their doctrine would still be causing death yet they made no big move to correct it but let it filter through the magazines at a lesiurely pace. Yep they are murders.
Remember also that a couple of years later that there were still missionaries in prison who had not been informed of the change.
They were also murderers during the Malawi events but that is just another one of their fatal practices.
I dont say we are all not responsible for the things we do, when my Grandmother was going into have an operation I was the first one to make sure they were aware of my grans stance on blood. I would have felt guilty if she had died due to then blood issue but at the end of the day, my hands were tied as was my mind. Just like the doctors.
