DEADLY DOGMA

The utter hypocrisy of the Watchtower/Jehovah's Witnesses prohibition against blood is that they can now take ALL the *parts* of blood so called 'blood fractions' the components that blood is composed of.

So what's the difference? Either blood is sacred or it isn't.How can ALL (whole blood) be sacred to God but not PARTS (fractions) of it arbitrarily set aside by Watchtower standards?

Such utter hyprocrisy!

"Recipients in group 1 underwent orthotopic liver transplants without intraoperative blood-saving or salvaging techniques, whereas all transplant recipients in group 2 underwent intraoperative cell salvage (ICS) and acute normovolemic hemodilution (ANH) whenever feasible," the authors report. " ANH indicates a therapeutic initiative that involves simultaneously removing the patient's blood and replacing it with NONBLOOD products."
Its pretty obvious what your opinion is about Jehovahs Witnesses. I went to school with a few of them. They are nice people and helped me with my medical studies alot. I cant say I agree at all with your comments. I also wanted to point out that it says witnesses received "NON BLOOD" products. Your comments are way off.
