It is quite clear from this report that the doctor in charge had absolutely no clue about bloodless surgery- the future. He also made false statements which exposed his ignorance of basic scientific facts. When a person suffers a blood loss the most immediate threat to life is not shortage of blood, as such, but an inadequate volume of fluid. This can be achieved using a simple saline solution, it is cheap and can be prepared by any doctor worth his certificate.
In normal adult humans, most blood cells are produced in the bone marrow. Every day, for every pound of body weight, your bone marrow produces one billion [2.5 billion] red cells, 400 million [1 billion] granulocytes (white cells), and one billion [2.5 billion] platelets. The saline solution is therefore a favourable liquid solution for the body to produce the needed amount of blood cells. You don’t need blood to achieve this.
Transfusing stored blood has NO immediate advantages concerning the transfer of oxygen, because the haemoglobin of stored, citrated red cells is not fully available for the transfer of oxygen to the tissues for some 24 hours after transfusion. This woman could have been saved easily. When the JWs opted for bloodless surgery they were choosing the best medical procedure. It has been scientifically proven that the advantages far outweigh blood transfusion. Over 160 hospitals are practicing in the US today. www.noblood.org . The question we should all ask ourselves is – if bloodless surgery was that dangerous why did Korle-Bu Hospital create a department for it in 2004?

Scientific fact - saline solution DOES NOT contain BLOOD CELLS! The most important blood cells needed when a person is DANGEROUSLY anemic are red blood cells.Saline solution may sometimes help buy time as the body builds up more red blood cells if the level of anemia is not life threatening. If the shortage of red blood cell is very severe there may not be time for fersolate, folic acid, erythropoietin etc to help body to make ENOUGH blood cells. Again, saline solution, normal saline etc does not contain blood cells! I was clueless like you too once. Read the book suggested by Henry. Read also what Blood is ( not the same as saline), read how blood cells- red, white blood cells, platelets etc are made by the body if you want to be scientific. I recommend google to you. Good luck

Comment to: Woman dies for refusing blood transfusion
Another scientific fact - severe anemia that is not caused by bleeding (like during surgery) can cause heart failure. Giving saline to someone that is anemic but has not lost blood (ie volume) can KILL! More suggestions for improving your scientific knowledge. Read about the functions of red blood cells, causes of anemia ( and know it is not only caused by blood loss), causes of heart failure, saline solution or more scientific name - normal saline. You like to google right? Good luck

Awakening of a Jehovah's Witness: Escape from the Watchtower Society
by Diane Wilson:
This tale of mind control, the use of fear to manipulate vulnerable people, and final escape from a suffocating cult environment is a revealing exposT of a secretive contemporary sect, as well as a true psychological thriller. Diane Wilson spent twenty-five precious years of her life, first becoming indoctrinated by the dogma of the Watchtower Society, and then struggling to free herself from its pervasive, intimidating clutches. In this probing, brutally honest assessment, Wilson describes how a childhood of psychological abuse and lack of self-confidence rendered her vulnerable to the seductive doctrines of the Jehovah's Witnesses. Yet as time went on and the society demanded rigid control over every aspect of her life, even her every thought, Wilson began to rebel. Her gradual awakening, at first unconsciously through physical and psychological ailments, and then consciously as a caring therapist helped her rediscover her true self, is a fascinating story.
What she reveals about the goings-on within the closed Watchtower Society will shock the average person who assumes the polite, well-dressed people who pass out leaflets are much like any other conservative religious group. Wilson contends that membership in the Jehovah's Witnesses requires obedience bordering on psychological enslavement and complete suppression of individuality. Her engrossing memoir will be of great interest to former Witnesses, students of cult phenomena, and anyone who has ever had contact with Jehovah's Witnesses.

Yes, all of us Christians believe we need to rely on the Bible. The Bible says that if we seek God with all our heart and mind and soul, we will find Him. However, it is sad that many humans have allowed others to put fear in them to the extent that these so called "teachers" deceive them and lead them to destruction. The Bible says that "there is no fear in love because fear has to do with punishment. Perfect love drives out all fear." The Watchtower has deceived millions of people for a long time. Millions have seen this and have been saved from this deception but millions of others are still being deceived. Pray that your family members don't get themselves entangled in this FALSE RELIGION. It will destroy your family! I mean it!!! Let the love of Christ rule your hearts and NOT the rules of some old white men in Brooklyn, New York! Their founder, Russell, died dejected in 1916 following his failed prophecies!

Read Lev. ch17:10-14 and you will appreciate the value of blood to Jehovah God. Then read Gen:ch 9:4 and add Acts 15:25-29.
If you are finding it difficult to follow the bible, please do no blame Jehovah's Witnesses who are read and apply the Bible in their daily lives.

Don't use insults. Just make your point. You have not commented on the fact that the Governing Council of the JWs caused many members to die when they ruled that organ transplants were not allowed. After many years, they ruled that they were wrong in their assertion. Their argument was that transplanting was tantamount to "eating" the organs and those organs are transplanted with blood on them. Do you see how unreasonable these arguments are? Salvation is a free gift from God by faith in Jesus Christ and not by works of man.

It will be nice for people to quote from the Bible when arguing than to insult. Each individual have to make a choice to follow his/her believes. But let the word of God guide each one of us. Now what about the account in Acts:15:20; Leviticus.3:17; 17:10; 19:26; 7:26; 3:17 and Gen.9:4...Yes these might be connected to animals, and especially since civilized humans don't are not cannibals, it is obvious we don't need the point spell out for us that human blood is equally sacred thus is considered as out of bounds for misuse or ingesting via tube or through the mouth which in technical terms are all 'eating', yes we all love to pick and choose what suits us especially when the going get's tough...no wonder we have people stealing, cheating etc...although they claim to read the Bible. It is easy to call someone stupid till we become enlightened and see that we should choose our words carefully. While we are on this subject can someone sincerely enlighten me by quoting exactly where the Bible mentioned that consuming alcohol especially in moderation is wrong. Why don't you condemn eating since the Bible speaks against gluttony...Oops, you can't why because you know well that gluttony is excess. Apostle Paul must be a criminal for recommending Timothy to consume some wine because of his stomach problems...should I go on!!!

Wrong, wrong, wrong! God has nothing to do with this. Nothing! God has giving us eternal life. That life is in His Son. Whoever has the Son has life but whoever has not the Son has not life! In the Acts 15 you refer to, do you know that the Gentiles who believed and were saved were saved by GOD HIMSELF without HIM requiring them to follow any Jewish rules and regulations? It was James and the apostles who wanted to burden these already saved Gentiles with the Old Testament laws. The Bible says that Christ was born under the law to redeem those under the law. In fact, in Galatians 3, Paul goes to a great length at explaining to the Galatians that they should resist being burdened with the regulations in the law. That said, in Acts 15, when James stuck the compromising rules for the Gentiles he stated that "it seemed good to the Holy Spirit that the Gentiles follow only these things... and the list included abstain from blood. In the Old Testament, abstaining from blood had to do with not eating meat with the blood of the animal still in it. How can you jump and conclude that eating meat with animals in it has any relationship with Blood Transfusion? Please THINK! THINK! THINK! And allow Jesus Christ to free you from the burdens of the WATCHTOWER!!!!!!!!!

Lest I forget...there are complications involved in blood transfusion...I dare you to be honest...how many cases of transfusions which resulted in death do the media publish....Oops almost none...does it mean that all transfusion saves life?...I know your answer...'at least we tried!' shame on you, be rational and use good judgement and stop picking on a people because of their religious believes.

The organisation has been institutionalised and deceived many with half-truths. All the medical advancement and the publication from the so called faithful slave, is based in a developed world where all the practicalities of what they tell the congregation exists. The men who made you believe the Jah prohibits blood transfusion does not know the Jah, they talk about except glorification of what they think is right, supported with biblical contexts. Even the devil can use the bible to deceive. No wonder millions of JWs has made unknowingly to them the organisation or society 'a god' which must be served and obeyed at all costs. Jehovah, the God they seem to adore is watching because to me, Jah is placed second to the society. If you pause, pray, reason and do your research well, Jah will open your heart to know who He really is. I have been there bro. I believed and trusted what I read and learnt but when I came across the Jehovah I have thought to know, He became first and the organisation second. This didn't go well upon reasoning to those following the society blindly. I am a health professional and knows more about transfusion. It is true, there is no guarantee that whoever receives blood can live forever or be saved instantly. What Jah created is life, not meant to be destroyed. Whatever you may have thought, I would not advise that woman to refuse the transfusion for religious reasons. Her refusal does not give her outright salvation for doing obeisance to religious belief which is thought God approves. PRAY, PRAY, AND PRAY FOR JEHOVAH TO GUIDE YOU TO REASON WHITHOUT RELYING SOLELY OF WHAT MEN BELIEFS TO BE EXPECTED FROM GOD. GOD IS LOVE. IF PEOPLE CAN TASTE AND SEEK FOR HIM INSTEAD OF SOME INSPIRATION, APPROVAL, GUIDANCE AND WITNESS FROM MEN, THEY WILL REALISE HE IS A SIMPLE, EASY TO APPROACH AND A LOVELY SUPERNATURAL BEING.

The problem of blood transfusion by the JW
gave birth to the "bloodless Surgery"in the advanced Countries.Which for one reason or the other is the preferred Standards Operating
procedure for JW members and non members alike for more than a decade now,like the "Micro Surgery".
I knew of a Child in W'ba,Ghana. whom had blood transfusion and never became herself as before.This Child was bothered by Skin
rashes and other ailments all the time,and looked weak after the transfusion.
The JW have developed Certified high potency and quick blood replenishment Capsule or tablet,as far back as I could remember(I stand corrected).
I'm not a JW,but I would not accept a blood transfusion.Because machines to test the blood may not be 100percent accurate.
There are reports of some people who tested positive after blood transfusion back then.

i'm a Medical practitioner in Europe, i'm not a jehovah witness,, here in Europe, blood transfusion is used only in extreme cases. The risk involved is never completely given to the geral public. Millions of people in the world has contracted serious diseases like Aids,hepatite B, hepatite C, and other illness in particular in Africa. we need proper health education system in terms of prevention, and proper and suitable diet to limit to avoid avoidable anaemic situations. Nevertheless, in the situation mention in this article, there was no need for surgery. Nothing shows that the lady could have been saved by the blood transfusion. In developped countries, les than 5% of the medical personel will accept blood transfusion. Yes, the evidence is clear. no scientific screening could tell you all the diseases in a blood before giving to you 100%. May the lady rest in peace.

This is going to be our destiny for eternity.
The bible has and is killing us as a people....we've been praying harder and harder and more than ever as a people since the bible was introduced to us and our situation has worsened collectively ever since.
Isn't it time we stop for a moment, as a people, open our eyes from our praying positions and start thinking for ourselves for once?
We believe (not know) all that is written (by men like u and me) hook line and sinker and have thrown any idea of thinking for a moment....we are banking our hopes on the myth that there will be some heaven after we die and therefore trash and destroy what we have here on earth....just look at our country, Ghana, and the rest of the continent as it stands....
Does anyone think a God in his/her right mind will give you a better place after you die, when you couldn't even fathom the level of recklessness you inflicted on what was entrusted to us on earth? Even an animal would not do that let alone a God.
Most of the comments here are all referencing the bible. The bible says this, the bible did not say that etc etc.....Again the bible were written by men/women just like u and me...and we should get this through our thick skulls once and for all that it is not the word of God.....it all came from the minds of men/women.
Ghana and Africa as a whole should wake up from our religious slumber if we are to make any progress in life. What we have failed to understand is that we don't need religion to be good people. We can be good by ourselves to ourselves and our goodness is good contrary to what the bible has made us to believe. Our goodness or righteousness is NOT like a filthy rag....let's do all the good we can without seeking any rewards for it, like going to heaven after we die, let's do it becos that's who we are as a people.
We've been made to believe that the earth was made some 6000 years ago, yet irrefutable evidence exist today of mankind being here over 200,000 years ago....again we have to understand that this world is not going anywhere for the next billions of years, so we better take good care of it for posterity...your and mine great great great great grand children.

It Obviously hurts when all you know and have been made to believe is challenged and cannot stand the test of reasoning and knowledge.
I'm of course sorry and mad at the same time for the loss of life due to a religious and biblical stance such as this, and duly acknowledge that.
I also do realize that you're one who cannot separate yourself from the bible, and i don't blame you, because that's all you have been made to believe and known.
I marvel at your comments "it's not a matter of dumping the bible, it is religion gone mad" and my question to you is what is the basis of the religion under consideration? your guess is good as mine, the bible and men.
What i said may sound senseless and nonsensical to you because you have no clue about the scruple you call the "bible" and how it came into existence as well as why is was written for you and your kind. Of course it's a book of faith, which means it does not have to be factual, true or historically accurate, so understanding such a book does not make you any better than a two year old kid reading and understanding the mysteries of "kweku ananse and ntekuma", the tooth fairy, santa klaus (father christmas), cinderalla and the adventures of super mugu-yaro.
My point is let's get rid of all these religious scruples and their attendant rituals and start thinking and doing instead of using them as a crutch with our outstretched arms asking for help from people, who by the way, could care a hoot about the so called holy books and religions.

Even if this interpretation that accepting blood transfusion constitutes eating blood, Paul taught in Rom. 14;17, that the kigdom of God is not about eating and drinking.
I cor. 8:8 says, "food will not commend us to God".
So eating or not eating of any type of food will not commend anyone to God.

I hope my Jehovah's Witness relatives (I have many in my family) are reading this! It is very sad that some people have allowed thier minds to be seared by mere human regulations! The Jehovah's Witnesses have allowed a few men in New York to dictate to them what they should do and not do - rules and regulations that have no Biblical backing at all. The blood transfusion issue is one such rule that is a completely WARPED and WRONG interpretation of scripture. God saved the Gentiles and poured His Spirit in them before a meeting was held by the apostles to determine which of the Jewish Old Testament laws they should follow. Remember that God did not demand that these people follow any rules before He saved them and gave them eternal life and poured His Holy Spirit on them. They only had to believe in Jesus Christ!!! Now, even if we consider what James imposed on the Gentiles, he just said they should not drink blood. Blood transfusion IS NOT the same as drinking blood. What was being referred to is a practice in the Old Testament whereby people ate meat with the blood in it. This had nothing nto do with BLOOD TRANSFUSION! Absolutely nothing! In fact, the Jehovah's Witnesses even went as far as saying that Christians were instructed not to receive transplants - Kidney and Liver transplants etc. For years, many JWs believed what their leaders told them, refused transplants, and died. It took many years before the same JW leaders came back and retracted their ruling and alowed organ transplants! Very SAD, very very SAD. And I have a brother, and sisters in this FALSE and deceptive religion. I continue to pray that the Lord Jesus Christ will have mercy on them and open their eyes to this deception.

my usual question is what makes africans believe and trust that the bible and qoran are true words from God? according to both books the first people to have been created were adam and eve and they were supposedly white people, how did we get black people?? if we realy believe that humans have spirits in them that will ascend to heaven after death and enjoy real time life, where was that spirit before birth?? who know where they were before birth?? It's a shame the kinda madness that has taken over especially ghana and nigeria in the name of religion. Africans existed over 199,500 years as anatomically modern Homo sapiens untill the whitemen came to colonise us in the 14th century till 19th century,(that's about 500 years). what did we do for ourselves with the over 199,500 before they arrived?? with the 500 years of colonisation the whiteman gave us formal education, brought us together to form countries, laid the road and infrastructure networks of our countries, brainwashed us with God's true religion' etc etc! after handing over to us at indepence to continue with the foundation laid what have we done so far?
We african must know that every human being was born tabula rasa. the alphabets and numbers we use in writing were developed, the electricity, internet, telephone, cars, airplane, ship, computers, ACs, clothing etc etc were made out of applying the mind on the natual environment. again, the maths, physics, engineering, anatomy, biochemistry, pharmacology, physiology, medical imaging, surgery, accounting, etc etc were all developed by men and women like ourselves, what have we black people done for the world??
Instead of thinking about the world and how to make life comfortable we have imprisoned our brains with religion. Go to our universities and all the students and lecturers are thinking and talking about religious activities. come to china and see african students defying chinese govt's policy of no unaproved church groups and cry in tongues. How on earth will a person believe that there's a place call heaven where sugar and honey, food and water, room and bed, beautiful ladies and nice guys to date and much more to enjoy after death? why then do we all run away from death?? i think this was an imaginary promisory story by some ancient leaders to motivate their followers to behave well and do good.
we don't need religion to do good. doing good is a universal requirement by all nations/govts/individuals. men and women are working hard under snowing weather to solve their problems whilst we spend our times under perfect weather crying on the floor for our god to come and solve ours for us.we hadly try doing something and even when we start something and meet little resistance instead of thinking and replanning we run back to pray then after we have failed we then go to those who don't pray like the chinese, japanese, germans etc begging for help. i wish our govt could have a national ideology law that would override any religious nonsense so that people like this poor girl don't die because of pastors who eat, housed and ride in physical cars but think and work spirits!

Dear Northern Parents r st., I am awfully sorry but you got it wrong about the people you say do not pray , and because of that they are 'progressing'! There are very active Religious Groups in Japan, Germany , Korea, the USA, Singapore etc. that you seem to esteem so much.
It is not Religion per se that is the problem. It is people's understanding of the Scripture and how to live by its principles. In China, Japan etc, they have their 'Traditional Philosophies of Life', which, of course, they would not call Religions but they are! Have you been following the news about the Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe and the furore he has created when he visited the Yasukuni Shrine of the 'War Heroes'? Since you seem to be in China, ask about Taoism and the various forms of Buddhism there. Why is that many Africans always want to put down our own way of doing things and still laud those of the 'White Man' ?
Please, let us shift the discussion onto 'The Understanding and Practice of Scripture/Religion' not 'Religion' itself!

Thanks Northern Parents r st.,
But that is exactly part of my point!
Nowhere in the Bible or other Scriptures are we told to sit doing nothing and 'Just wait for Miracles'. Yes, we believe that God works but WE ARE SUPPOSED TO DO OUR PART! So, my argument is still valid. It is the way some people understand and practice Religion. Many European Countries will affirm that they are 'Christian'. Check around! The basic values are based on Christian Principles. In the U.K. for example, the Queen is still the Head of the Anglican Church. In the United States of all places, the Dollar has the symbol saying 'In God We Trust' and during the inauguration of every president, Christian Prayers are recited at the function! In Germany, Angela Merkel's Ruling is called 'Christian Democrats'! These are not mere labels. Brazil , one of the fastest growing economies in the world, is staunchly Catholic. India, the second largest Democracy with a vibrant Economy is majority Hindu.My central argument therefore still stands.

Quite right Seth,
They are not an old religion but one that was invented in the USA just over 100 years ago.
Russell himself admitted that he was not educated and allegations of improper financial dealings were regularly being made against him by other members of his "sect".
They have regularly predicted the end of the world and have always been wrong. The last time was in 1975 when thousands of Witness followed the teaching of the Elders and sold their worldly goods and gave the money to the organisation as the "end of days was nigh" only to be left impoverished and ruined when it never happened. Many then left the sect and never returned.
They no longer predict the end of the world, not because they do not believe it is going to happen but because they would be left open to criminal allegations of fraud and deception by the State acting on behalf of anybody who disposed of their worldly goods, gave the proceeds to the organisation, in the belief that the Elders were speaking truthfully and was then left penniless when the end did not come.

The Pharmaceutical Industry can fool the ignorant. Useless Doctors like you will always defend their career even if it is killing people. Cure for cancer has been suppressed for over a century due to those with moronic attitude like you have. For 40 years a doctor who treat cancer - Dr Burzynski - has been put on clinical trials, no approval yet. He gets sued by the FDA always. The FDA goes to his patients to convince them to sue Burzynski's ass so they can give those patients cash rewards. Other treatments too exist but no doctor is supposed to say they cure cancer else they get thrown behind bars. All these are done with the aim of suppressing treatment to get Pharmaceutical companies running their businesses for profits. Keep people alive, don't treat them, so you can drain cash from their asses. And Ghana's FDA is following the same process. I am glad a patient was advised to go herbal and stay away from drugs(poison) when their sickness was diagnosed at a hospital. My family uses medical technology for diagnoses/checkup. And if we have any illness which is rarely the case, we jump on herbal remedies. Fuck conventional medicine.

Another scientific fact - severe anemia that is not caused by bleeding (like during surgery) can cause heart failure. Giving saline to someone that is anemic but has not lost blood (ie volume) can KILL! More suggestions for improving your scientific knowledge. Read about the functions of red blood cells, causes of anemia ( and know it is not only caused by blood loss), causes of heart failure, saline solution or more scientific name - normal saline. You like to google right? Good luck

It is sad to hear the news of the death of this lady. She exercised her right of self-determination and her biblical conviction.
For most patients that refuse blood transfusion, quick alternatives to blood transfusion must be offered. There are various modalities depending on the presenting clinical challenge (disease), namely:
1. hyper-oxygenation (giving extra oxygen)
2. Injection of blood stimulating drug, erythropoietin (EPO)
3. Giving intravenous fluids to maintain the blood circulation volume.
4. Arresting the cause of "the lost of blood"
5. Giving blood forming vitamins and folic acid - by injection or by oral (mouth) route.
The treating doctor must arrive at the cause of anemia quickly and start the appropriate alternatives to transfusion TIMELY.
The above are my experience as a hospital manager and a healthcare practitioner myself.

Miss CC has just delivered a baby and had a large tear in her cervix that was not picked early. She bleed a lot and became restless.
I was called by the father regarding the issue as the treating doctor was insisting on blood transfusion. She was taken to theatre when I arrived at the hospital and the source of bleeding was stopped in theatre. This took place in a district hospital. As the hospital gave an indication of lack of capacity to continue her care, the family arranged transfer to a higher hospital. In the meantime intravenous fluids and oxygen were given continuously.
The argument of blood transfusion continue in the larger hospital. But a discussion with the doctors and the family took place. She was then given EPO and blood forming vitamins throughout her stay in the hospital. Her HB at the time was 1.56g/dL.
In two weeks her HB improved to 7.3g/dL and she was discharged on oral blood forming drugs.
This was a case I was personally involved in. So alternatives to blood transfusion does work.
I wrote this piece as on this date of the current article we are informed Korle-Bu has run out of blood supply. What may happen to even a patient who accept blood transfusion but blood is not available for transfusion. The doctors will have to implement the alternative strategy to save even this patient. So coming to be conversant with alternatives to blood transfusion is very important for all healthcare workers.
Due to ethical considerations, the places, and names of the hospitals and the patient can not be disclosed on this comment.

LEVITICUS 17. Please let all JEHOVAH WITNESSES read and see if it has anything to do with blood transfusion. In this chapter, God makes it clear to Israel that blood should be used to atonement or asking for forgiveness of sins so that the person offering that sacrifice would be reconciled with God.
Secondly, when they killed any animal, they should pour out the blood and cover it with soil before they can prepare that animal for eating.
There is no mention of not taking blood transfusion here. Please teach the Bible correctly and stop unnecessary deaths arising out of members of JEHOVAH WITNESS MOVEMENT refusing blood transfusions. Precious lives that would have proved beneficial to other people are just being wasted due to misinterpretation of the Scriptures.
Wake up, the most serious propagators of the word of God. Make necessary corrections. God bless you and note also that JESUS IS GOD.

JW's pay taxes law abiding citizens, they can go to any hospital the choose to, some of them are physicians, doctors and Nurses. And I believe those who don't wont to eat pork meat will not be force to! right? She will be res ...

She did not die "for" refusing transfusion. She died AFTER refusing transfusion. GNA WTF are your editors doing?
This shows that most of their articles are not given the due attention and am worried about the integrity in these articles
I hope my Jehovah's Witness relatives (I have many in my family) are reading this! It is very sad that some people have allowed thier minds to be seared by mere human regulations! The Jehovah's Witnesses have allowed a few me ...

It is painful. This woman has killed her self and has gone to hell unfortunately. Jehovah Witnesses are NOT Christians therefore they do not understand the Bible. Join them if you want to die foolishly.
Very stupid comment. Pray for your soul. People come to the hospital with hb of 6g/dl & still go home alive without receiving transfusion. They should tell us what her diagnoses was. The anaemia was secondary to something.
U call that stupid, when your JW beliefs are more stupid. Most of you JWs are like zombies; can't use your own brains to understand that what you are being told to follow is thrash.

Either intentionally or being dumb, you continue to misinterpret the good book; taking things out of contest.
If God has a problem with blood transfusion to save life, why did he spill his only begotten sons blood for the sins of million of people? Christian dogmas will soon come to end with knowledge in sight.
JW do not understand the bible at all. The bible says no one knows when the end is coming,but these stupid JW had predicted twice that the world is coming to an end. They commit crime, fornication and other bad things
Are you serious? Name any religious body that don't have all what you've mentioned and then not get the ratio...who are the majority in all these crimes. Start from the politicians...how many religious bodies do they represen ...

Idiot - then why do nearly all hospital doctors administer blood transfusions when the need arises.
Are you saying they lack knowledge.
What a twisted group full of twisted people with twisted minds. Just take another look at them again That is how they will perish.
Lack of knowledge my people perished. If you refuse blood transfusion what do you do to restore the blood back.
she indirectly committed suicide and i don't think God likes that either.
I have read that there is no truth to this story.
Hmmmmm God have mercy on you people.
JW IS NOT PART OF CHRISTIANITY
Funny - the Witness only "revealed" the rule prohibiting the ingestion of blood as a direction from Jehovah in 1945. Therefore, presumably all those Witness was "revealed" were sinners and had broken the word of Jehovah.

WHY THEN WILL THE POLICE ARREST AND PROSECUTE AN ADULT WHO ATTEMPTS TO TAKE HIS OWN LIFE?
If you don't get entrance to heaven after this then what is your faith.
All of you out there,pls. read John 15:13 & Leviticus 17:11. The Good BOOK urged us to give out blood to save lives.
To me refusing blood transfusion to save your life is tantamount to committing suicide.
which bible verse speaks against blood transfusion?
wait wait, i am confused. If you love life, dont sustain it? or rather, "since you hate life". Frank Amevor, what are you saying
Mr. Frank Amevor and Co should stop confusing your fellow worshipers and lovers of Christ. Where in the bible did say when one is seriously ill he/she should have blood transfusion?
Where too does the Bible speak against Homosexuality. Then go ahead and accept it because the word homosexuality was not available in Bible times. Your argument doesn't hold.
JEHOVAH'S WITNESSES ORGANISATION IS NOT A SECT OF ANY OTHER ORGANISATION. PLEASE STOP CALLING IT A S E C T.
