  @stuckinarut2 Of course if he studies that way he'll wind up full of s***. That's a WT side effect.

  @Pete Zahut I think @joe134cd is justified in raising the ban of vaccines by WT to his father since back in the early days, this is exactly what WT did to its members. And these instructions were presented as "scriptural" and from God:

  "Vaccination never prevented anything and never will, and is the most barbarous practice . . . We are in the last days; and the devil is slowly losing his hold, making a strenuous effort meanwhile to do all the damage he can, and to his credit can such evils be placed. . . . Use your rights as American citizens to forever abolish the devilish practice of vaccinations." (The Golden Age, Oct. 12, 1921, p. 17)

  "Thinking people would rather have smallpox than vaccination, because the latter sows seeds of syphilis, cancers, eczema, erysipelas, scrofula, consumption, even leprosy and many other loathsome affections. Hence the practice of vaccinations is a crime, an outrage, and a delusion" (The Golden Age, Jan. 5, 1929, p. 502)

  “Vaccination has never saved a human life. It does not prevent smallpox.” (The Golden Age, Feb. 4, 1931, p. 294)

  "We do well to bear in mind that among the drugs, serums, vaccines, surgical operations, etc., of the medical profession, there is nothing of value save an occasional surgical procedure. . . . Readers of The Golden Age know the unpleasant truth about the clergy; they should also know the truth about the medical profession, which sprang from the same demon worshipping shamans (doctor priests) as did the ‘doctors of divinity.’" (The Golden Age, Aug. 5, 1931, pp. 727-728)

  Pro-Blood Transfusion Directives for the Ex-JW

  hey everyone, i have a question... all of my family members are jehovah's witnesses, save my son and me.

  if something were to happen to me and i lost consciousness, my parents would be the best of kin called on to make medical decisions.

  how do i ensure that if a transfusion is needed, hospital/doctors are clear that i do indeed want a transfusion and that my parents cannot override that decision?

  Hey hon, I'd have a word with your GP and ask him what steps you'll need to take so that your hospital record is strictly non-negotiable as pro-transfusions. I'd almost forgotten all about this since fading but when recently in the ER for my son (minor fracture), they checked if all of my details are up to date. They asked about address, phone number... and then religion.

  "Jehovah's Witness?" the registrar at the front desk asked.

  "NO!" I practically exploded. "Please take that off my son's files. He is open to transfusions should he ever require one. Please mark us with no particular religion."

  And just like that, the records were amended.

  Good luck!

  @Betheliesalot Sorry, accidentally hit the downvote. Totally agree with you!

  How's this for the "loving provision of the disfellowshipping arrangement":
