Pregnant women refuses blood
by Giordano inhttp://jehovahswitnessreport.com/blog/jw-refusal-of-blood-transfusion-mother-and-baby-die#more-4001.
a 28-year-old woman and her unborn child have died because of the womans decision not to accept a lifesaving blood transfusion.. doctors at the royal hospital for women and prince of wales hospital in randwick, sydney, australia, have described the harrowing effect on hospital staff of two otherwise avoidable deaths.. the woman, a jehovahs witness, was seven months into her pregnancy when it was discovered she had leukaemia.. amy corderoy, health editor, reporting in the sydney morning herald states,.
more than 80% of pregnant women suffering from the cancer, called acute promyelocytic leukaemia, will go into remission with proper treatment, and the outlook for their babies is good.. .

Just finished reading about this case in the Mail. Two more avoidable deaths because of stubborn adherence to retarded religious beliefs. The GB has a lot to answer for.
It has to stop. When human life under 18 is involved, government must force blood transfusions on the person(s) in need. No ifs or buts.
My thoughts also go to the woman's family.

Active posters: What education have you had, what degrees do you possess?
by EndofMysteries infrom so many posts and conversations on here, you'd think over 1/2 the posters here possess doctorates in theology, physics, biology, etc.
i'm curious aside from the books and research people have done here, what degrees they have.
to start, i just got an aa and going straight through full time to an mba.

I think children should not be raised to value faith - the big problem here, of course, is children having their parents' religion forced on them. What can be done? Perhaps government should look into this - make under 18s or under 16s joining a religion illegal. If we have an age of sexual consent, why can't we have an age for religious consent?
We should teach them to question everything and demand evidence. Teach them how to think not what to think - agreed. Not just university but parents have a responsibility in this regard.

I disagree that they aren't all dangerous - what about middle-of-the-road C of E? They haven't burnt anyone at the stake for centuries, if they ever did. They generally tolerate others' religions, others' piss-taking. Some splinter groups allow gay couples, gay priests.
I feel it's a shame when atheists overplay their hand.

@Jonathan Drake - fair question in response. I would prefer our imaginary alcoholic drinks himself silly than harms you or your family.
However, not everyone with personal belief in God are theists, neither are they necessarily susceptible to charismatic preachers. I'm sure you knew this.
I hope atheism doesn't start to eat itself.

Even if Solid Proof were provided that God Existed.....I would never join a religion - good point, I agree with you there. I think I'm confusing religion with personal belief - it's late in the day and I've had a few pints
