Here's another link to an article concerning Irwen Zalkins team. It also includes an interview with a PiMO, interestingly, as the PiMO is demonstrating the fear witnesses have about leaving the org and loosing their famillies. This piece doesn't pull any punches and the title accuses the Org of being " Cultish"!!!!

Questions About the Watchtower's View on Blood Transfusions.
by Pallbearer ini admit to not being very well informed about the watchtower's view on blood transfusions.
i have a couple of questions that i hope someone here is able to answer.. i understand that the watchtower now considers it to be okay to receive blood fractions.. my first question is: are all fractions considered to be permissible?
and if not, specifically which fractions are not permissible?.

Also, most white blood cells are found in organ tissue, not in the blood itself. Each organ transplant, permitted by the society since 1980, necessitates the transfer of millions of white blood cells.
I believe witnesses will have bone marrow transplants(?) If so they are taking the very thing that produces those white cells and red cells!

Transfusions of whole blood are relatively rare these days. Current practice is to give you the component you need.
Not where I work. Theatres we use whole blood all the time in major surgery.

Excellent piece on Watchtower's appeal to the Supreme court
by Diogenesister inmark o'donnell ( john redwood) has outdone himself in this excellent piece on watchtower's appeal to the supreme court regarding their definition of clergy-penitent rights.. the case they are appealing revolves around gilbert simental, a known abuser who, although eventually removed as an elder, was allowed to remain in a position of respect, with the parents of his victims kept in the dark about the risk he posed to the children with whose care he was entrusted.
.
anyway it's an excellent piece and well worth reading.. https://jwsurvey.org/news/jehovahs-witnesses-lose-california-child-abuse-case-appeal-to-u-s-supreme-court-part-one.

Last Thursday's Meeting in Elmira, On
by newsheep ini had gotten a phone call from a brother who was really upset.
he said there was a resolution passed that everyone is in agreement to the selling of the elmira hall.
the strange thing is at the congregation picnic an elder told him that a few years ago the deed to the hall was signed over to the org.

Don't they notice that the day something bad happens they get a talk telling them to grass on each other if anyone says anything negative and not to read anything negative about the org.
They took their money for the car park filling knowing they were planning to sell the hall. That must have been planned by the branch office at least a year prior. I bet the CO knew. It's becoming a blatant con, they are confidence tricksters.
They ask for a show of hands fully knowing the motion will get passed. It's just to fool them into feeling they have a say when really they have none.
