  This idea might not be new, but does a website like this exist?

  i am deeply upset every time there's someone in the news who has died because of the stupid and immoral blood doctrine.. i would like to make a website documenting every single instance of a news report of someone dying from lack of a blood transfusion, and to keep track of it.

  that would give some data on the real and current incidence of deaths due to the blood transfusion doctrine.. is there already a website like that?.

  Resources management librarian Stephen Schmidt recommends two notable books this year from established British novelists who seem to have found their footing once again. Ian McEwan and Martin Amis are old masters at the game. But their past few novels have left something to be desired. Not so this year. McEwan's "The Children Act" is an engaging novel about the private sorrows and life-or-death decisions faced by British High Court judge Fiona Maye . While dealing with her husband's infidelity she also is forced to decide the fate of a teenage Jehovah's Witness. He needs a blood transfusion or he'll die, but his faith and his parents are preventing him from having it. This is another classic McEwan story of reason and science over religion.

  First entry:
  
  http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/religion/11279376/Doctors-can-ignore-deeply-held-views-of-two-Jehovahs-Witnesses-to-treat-their-burns-victim-son.html

  But Mr Justice Peter Jackson gave doctors permission not to administer blood transfusions to a 63-year-old woman who was a Jehovah's Witness.

  The woman had subsequently died.

  Doctors working for Newcastle upon Tyne Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust had asked for permission to withhold a blood transfusion.

  They said the woman, who had been a Jehovah's Witness since the 1970s at least and had a history of depression and paranoid schizophrenia, was "gravely ill".

  Mr Justice Peter Jackson said that when doctors made the application the woman had "clearly lacked" the mental capacity to make or communicate decisions about treatment.

  But the judge said that after being admitted to hospital the woman had been "adamant" that she did not want treatment with any blood products.

  He concluded that the woman had made a decision, when she had the mental capacity, that doctors rightly considered had to be respected.

  The judge said the human right to life was "fundamental" but not absolute. He said there was no obligation on a patient to accept life-saving treatment and doctors were not entitled or obliged to give treatment.

  Also,

  I would like to know if there's a way to look into newspapers and make a historical review of these newspapers for these news. Perhaps even "JW dies because of rejecting organ transplants" or "JW dies because of rejecting vaccination"...

  Bobcat, essentially I am asking if anyone has a better scan of THAT picture you mentioned.

  Wifibandit, it is the one BobCat said. That picture you posted would be useful if it appeared in a WT publication... Do you know if it is a "private" picture or a Watchtower publication picture?

  Digitizing all WT Literature

  2. friends

  i have lots of wt literature that i want to get rid of, and i know that a lot of the literature is "valuable" in the sense that we need to have a record of what was said and when... and hopefully, all the pictures.. one of the least well-preserved of wt literature is the yearbooks.

  they contain valuable information that is not on the wt library... for example, all of the pictures of the many jw's, or the charts and data, or the daily text.. .

  so, atlantis, or anyone who wants it, i am willing to ship the yearbooks to you with the condition that you will scan them and provide them for the entire community, and you pay for the shipping.anyone willing to take them?.

  Hi Atlantis,

  I'd love to, but I am leaving the city. I left all my books with someone I trust. She will try to scan them.
