Sorry, one more.
In Awake! 1994 May 22 p.2
Youths Who Put God First (3-15) you wrote
"In former times thousands
of youths died for putting God first. They are still doing it, only today the drama is played
out in hospitals and courtrooms, with
blood transfusions the issue."
Four years later you contradicted this by saying (w98 12/1 p.14 Defending Our Faith)
"Jehovah's Witnesses have been targets of
false accusations - barefaced lies and twisted presentations of their beliefs... The accusation that numerous children of
Jehovah's Witnesses die each year as a result of refusing blood transfusions is
totally unfounded."
Then in w04 6/15 p. 23 par. 16 'Be Guided by the Living God' you amended the Blood Policy:
"What about small fractions extracted from a primary component, such as serums containing antibodies to fight a disease or to counteract snake venom? (See page 30, paragraph 4.) Some have concluded that such minute fractions are, in effect, no longer blood and hence are not covered by the command ‘to abstain from blood.’ (Acts 15:29; 21:25; page 31, paragraph 1) That is their responsibility."
Question: Did all those children that you were so proud to tell us had died in 1994, all die needlessly because of your incorrect doctrines which you later changed in 2004?
