"Basics of Blood Management" by Dr. Petra Seeber and Dr. Aryeh Shander - Inaccuracies and Myth

by OrphanCrow in

patient blood management arose out of bloodless medicine and alternatives to blood transfusions.

pbm has been accepted as the standard of care in australia and has been implemented into the health care systems of other countries such as canada.

a prominent promoter of pbm has been aryeh shander from englewood hospital in new jersey.

vidiot: Jeezus, the Org must have convinced themselves that the "bloodless" medical technology field would end up a f**king gold mine.

It is a f**king gold mine.

Don't forget that it was only 5 years ago that the noblood societies, that the Org is aligned with, attended the United Nations WHO conference in Dubai and it was at that conference that Shander et al successfully convinced the WHO that patient blood management is the "golden standard of care"...for the entire world.

Patient blood management - using the patient's own blood

Blood management - avoiding donor blood

Both concepts are now adopted by WHO - a United Nations organization - as the optimum way to handle blood supply...for the world. Our blood guidelines are now set by noblood societies with ties to the religion which prohibits blood transfusions.

And that is why I am so interested in deconstructing the Seeber/Shander account of where and how this blood management movement took hold. And the root of the movement is yours truly - the Watch Tower Society.

The global blood management movement, which effects everybody, is a Watch Tower movement.

DrWho: She took the book home and read the first pages, got scared , wrapped it up in gift paper and hid it under her bed, strange behavior ?

It is sad behavior. Sad.

To be so terrified and to not know that freedom from that mental anguish is only a tiny mental click away

She still has the book. Maybe she will unwrap it some day

DD: Saying that "free help" has no value is ludicrous

Yes, you are right. It is a ludicrous statement. "Free" help can certainly help sometimes.

But...to expect that "free" help is better that "charged" help just because of a moral judgement - a judgement on the helper's motivation - is also a ludicrous position.

That would be like questioning your mechanic's motives just because he wants some money in return for a service you can't perform yourself

DD: There's no reason he can't help people for free.

I think that paying for food and shelter would be a good reason.

Everybody seems to think that "help" is supposed to be free or it is suspect.

Personally, I would think that if something is free, it is valueless.

What is the purpose of life?

by slimboyfat in

while reading the magazines the other day it occurred to me that jws never really had a very good answer to that question.

because it was aimed at young people and it said something along the lines, "if you believe in god you have a purpose, but if you don't believe in god your life has no purpose or meaning".

i think that is a faulty analysis of the situation.

OrphanCrow

Looter, nobody here believes that you are an 18 something guy. Or 19 something. Or 20 something.

You display the typical behavior of somebody whose view of the world is based on feelings rather than reality. Your belief in god is a feeling - an emotion. And when someone questions your belief, you respond emotionally, not rationally.

And when that fails, you resort to the Big Threat: God is gonna get you.

You are powerless. You do not have personal power - you have to rely on an imaginary friend to fight the battles of the mind for you. God is simply a mental construct that steps in to make up for what you perceive to be your personal failings.

God is only as powerful as you are. God is an exact replica of who you are - an impotent being with no power whatsoever

Drwho: He mentioned once that a Cult education website had been bought out by Scientology , which in turn kept the original name, maybe this is the website ?

It is the Cult Awareness Network that was bought by Scientology

looter: Of course you would say I know nothing about it because you don't even believe in God and like, Viviane, you believe my faith to be juvenile.

You know nothing about my beliefs or lack of beliefs. Nothing. You think you know. But you don't.

And that is what faith is. Thinking you know what it is that you don't know.

Pretending you have knowledge when you have none.

All faith is juvenile. It is the nature of faith.

And you, sir(?), exhibit juvenile behavior.

looter: You don't have to be old to hold true beliefs, you know.

I know. We agree on the point that anybody can hold any belief. Belief is like that - it applies to anything that we know nothing about. Where we don't agree is on the insertion of the word 'true' before 'belief'.

Now, can you tell me what is the difference between believing in Santa Claus and believing in a god in the sky? Do you believe in Santa Claus?

Looter: I am not a brat! I am almost 20 and I've had a great life in my day and I'm probably more of a man than you'll ever be! So shush, you disrespectful gumbo.

Lol!

hahaha!

I love this thread.

My morning entertainment.

Tell me, Looter, let me guess....you were teaching in the synagogue when you were twelve, too, weren't you?

What is the biggest hypocrisy you have seen as a witness?

by HereIgo in

i have far too many to name, but ill start with obscene music, gambling and cussing like a sailor.

all the while preaching to "worldly people" about their impending death at armageddon.

thoughts?.

The biggest hypocrisy?

The WT's acceptance of Hemopure - a manufactured blood product made from cow's blood. Animal blood.

For decades, they have stood on a bad interpretation of an old biblical edict against the eating of animal blood - not human blood - as justification for refusing life saving blood transfusions. And then...when it became valuable to the WTS...for whatever reason...they said it is okay to have a blood transfusion made from the same blood that the Bible forbid - animal blood.

That is hypocritical. Ban human blood transfusions based on a biblical scripture about animal blood but then allow blood transfusions using animal blood.
