thanks for bumping that. One bit I disagree with though is even considering the possibility of the WT rescinding this doctrine even after Gene Smalley and Fred Rusk croak. As you said they're between a rock and a hard place. To overturn this doctrine entirely would leave them open for liability claims. The other thing which I think is a more terrifying thought to them than legal concerns is the potential turnover of JWs. The turnover as a result of rescinding this would make the 1980 Franz Incident and the exodus of 1976 look like sunflower seeds. Comparing it to "opening the flood gates" wouldn't even do justice to the amount of JWs that would leave if they rescind this.

DEADLY THEOLOGY - a History of the Blood Issue and What's Next
by Dogpatch inof all of jehovahs witnesses peculiar ideology that attracts the most attention is their controversial and inconsistent prohibition of transfusions of a red biological fluidblooddonated by caring people to help save lives.. in light of the fact that patients in need of blood seldom require all of the components of whole blood, modern medical treatment calls for only that portion needed for a particular condition or disease, and this is referred to as blood component therapy.
[1] the following information is centered on this therapy that is being used to save jehovahs witnesses lives.. by barbara anderson.

Ironic isn't it, the WT would have a bigger problem with you celebrating your birthday, than you celebrating the anniversary of you posting on an apostate message board.

Better you than me Sab. I'd be afraid to get into an argument with her. I can imagine myself running toward the door as the spear whizzes past my ear and lodges in the door.

One thing the WT got right was the Trinity being false.

I was really fishing on this thread, like I was hoping Jonathan Dough and that other fellow with the parrot on his shoulder would post something because I know they have strong feelings on this subject. Granted I didn't give it much time for them to make an appearance, but I got disappointed and figured I better make my confession.

On a side note, William Shatner turned 80 the other day.
That is freaking awesome !!
Really? Thats crazy. He's had a heluva life. All those pretty green alien women he made love to.......
I have a confession to make. I don't have a strong feeling either way regarding the Trinity. I'm just bored today, and was looking for some kind of action on here. Plus its been a while since we've had a Trinity thread.

Ok, so they knew each other, great. Still doesn't prove anything other than they knew one another. The text didn't say, "Father may I now become part of your abdominal muscles." Two seperate beings with one acknowledging submission to the other.

I'm not intending to place blame on anyone, just pointing out how ridiculous it is. All three are one, preposterous and laughable if it weren't so tragically outragous. John 17:3 exposes how flimsy of a doctrine it is.
