Some JW's believe that eventually the world will use synthetic blood in all circumstances and the Society will be vindicated.
This probably will happen. But that won't change the fact that they had an ill conceived policy that was stupid, cost lives, and hurt people.

if the wts insists that it can't dictate medical procedures to the flock, how will they work this medical advice into the rules?

I understand the Governing body has a hand in the matter right now. And when that hand gets tired, they will probably switch to the other one.
Thats probably all the action those old f***s get. Oh wait a minute there's some young ones now. Eh still probably all they get. Too busy on zone visits.

when i was growing up there were a group of girls in a neighboring congregation who hit their teen years with a vengeance.
they wore a lot of makeup, acted "worldly", and got in a fair share of trouble (a lot of back room discussions at the hall).
they were true rebels (with a cause, i believe now, looking back).
I saw plenty of those. Kinda wish I had hooked up with one. Well I have another chance. I remember thinking that girls who wore any more than a little makeup were "worldly". Wow was I dumb. Figured that out once was married for a while.
over the last 3 years i have lost 49% of the value of my savings.

Sorry to hear that. Is it like mine where there are reduced risk options like bond or T-Bill funds?

how did the idea develope among the semite people that sacrafice, the destruction of animal life, would be pleasing to god?.
what purpose does it serve?.
It makes absolutely no sense in our world, especially if you don't subscribe to the dubious concept of God. But I'd imagine it would make sense in the past if people felt they were giving something valuable to the powerful deity.

study articles have strong counsel against apostates - modern day apostates display characteristics similar to those of the devil.
their mind may be poisoned by a critical attitude towards individuals in the congregations , christian elders or the governing body.
some apostates oppose the use of the divine name , jehovah.

Gee boys how do you know? Is it the same way you "knew" in 1969 and 1984? If my father is the Devil now how do you know? Huh? You knew it was Jehovah when I was an elder. How do you know anything?
