tabarugonzo didn't care about milk has white cells or not, why Watchtower Society taught him cares about some medical productions have white cells or not. What I mean is Why "go beyond what is written," then fool themselves with all those mess ? The Bible simple say about "blood." Why they should make themseves God to prohibit this and that, then lead themselves to confusions. Like before 2000, they use a lot of God's law ("violate God's law about abstain from blood") to prohibit people access to hemoglobin and suddenly change. Now, some accept hemoglobin some not. Mind you, tabarugonzo, just tell me which productions you can and which you can not transfuse into your body. Do you know them by "yourself" or if circumstance happen to your relatives, you should rely on decision of others ,"from brothers in Society." Just stop any elder in your congregation and ask them which medical liquid can be transfused, which is not. They certainly don't know. They should ask "Society." So Society is God.
Watch here
, it is God's law to prohibit you transplant organs, then again God's law allows you transplant them. (James 1:17).

Is there any Scriptural objection to donating one?s body for use in medical research or to accepting organs for transplant from such a source?W. L., U.S.A.
When there is a diseased or defective organ, the usual way health is restored is by taking in nutrients. The body uses the food eaten to repair or heal the organ, gradually replacing the cells. When men of science conclude that this normal process will no longer work and they suggest removing the organ and replacing it directly with an organ from another human, this is simply a shortcut. Those who submit to such operations are thus living off the flesh of another human. That is cannibalistic. However, in allowing man to eat animal flesh Jehovah God did not grant permission for humans to try to perpetuate their lives by cannibalistically taking into their bodies human flesh, whether chewed or in the form of whole organs or body parts taken from others

*** w80 3/15 31 ? Questions from Readers ***ó Should congregation action be taken if a baptized Christian accepts a human organ transplant, such as of a cornea
or a kidney?
Regarding the transplantation of human tissue or bone from one human to another, this is a matter for conscientious decision by each one of Jehovah's Witnesses. Some Christians might feel that taking into their bodies any tissue or body part from another human is cannibalistic. They might hold that the transplanted human material is intended to become part of the recipient's body to keep him alive and functioning. They might not see it as fundamentally different from consuming flesh through the mouth. Such feelings may arise from considering that God did not make specific provision for man to eat the flesh of his fellowman when he made provision for humans to eat the flesh of animals that had been drained of their life-sustaining blood. They may give consideration also to the way people in Bible times viewed sustaining themselves by taking in human flesh. For example, see the account at 2 Kings 6:24-30; Deuteronomy 28:53-57; Lamentations 2:20 and 4:10. At John 6:48-66, Jesus spoke figuratively of eating his flesh and drinking his blood. On hearing this discussion and not perceiving the spiritual significance of his words, some of his Jewish disciples were shocked and turned from following him. These accounts illustrate how some humans felt about eating human flesh.
Other sincere Christians today may feel that the Bible does not definitely rule out medical transplants of human organs. They may reason that in some cases the human material is not expected to become a permanent part of the recipient's body. Body cells are said to be replaced about every seven years, and this would be true of any human body parts that would be transplanted. It may be argued, too, that organ transplants are different from cannibalism since the 'donor' is not killed to supply food. In some cases persons nearing death actually have willed body parts to be used for transplants. Of course, if a transplant should require taking in another person's blood, undeniably that would be contrary to God's command."--Acts 15:19, 20.
Clearly, personal views and conscientious feelings vary on this issue of transplantation. It is well known that the use of human materials for human consumption varies all the way from minor items, such as hormones and corneas, to major organs, such as kidneys and hearts. While the Bible specifically forbids consuming blood, there is no Biblical command pointedly forbidding the taking in of other human tissue. For this reason, each individual faced with making a decision on this matter should carefully and prayerfully weigh matters and then decide conscientiously what he or she could or could not do before God. It is a matter for personal decision. (Gal. 6:5) The congregation judicial committee would not take disciplinary action if someone accepted an organ transplant.
How many "faithful witnesses" (or blind themselves witnesses) died because refuse hemoglobin transfusions ? And they will again call them as Un-"sincere Christians" soon. Do you want to be among those Un-sincere brothers ? Ask yourself. Do you "by yourself" know which production can be transfused into your body, which is not, or you just step by step follow "Society" in this alive or dead matter ?
