Is this 'Real Housewives of RHP' schtick of yours some sort of new edgy banter?
Originally posted by iChopWoodForFreeIt's not listening to wrong answers I don't approve. I'm actually a very good listener as all JW's are taught. You can't teach unless you first listen.
I'm guessing that "good questions and good answers" are only ones which you approve?
The fact that anyone who disagrees with you is a "spiritually void [son] of satan" is disgusting.
The fact that your mind is so closed that you can't even entertain the thought you might be wrong is frightening. I would keep my children well away from you.
But as time has proven over and over there are ones who do not want to learn but are only here to argue as dive dude just admitted.
I never said that all who disagree are spiritually void, did I? No I have never said that.
If you would like a civil conversation I'm open...
But a side comment to this is so far that I've seen only (1) person has thanked me for posting this life saving medical breakthrough and most others have done nothing but ignor this and have argued like spiritually void humans usually do. If some one else has mentioned how good this sounds, sorry I missed you.
I only hope all here really take this procedure seriously and request this if any loved one needs this help. Taking blood from another human is very dangerous and can affect ones life until they die....

-Removed-Yes, you are not correct.
JW's do not take blood because our Heavenly Father, our Creator, has proscribed the taking of blood.
(Acts 15:28, 29) For the holy spirit and we ourselves have favored adding no further burden to you except these necessary things: 29 to keep abstaining.......from blood, ...... If you carefully keep yourselves from these things, you will prosper. Good health to you!”
def. to abstain is to refrain from something by one's own choice.
Would you agree that as the creator of blood, Jehovah has the right to instruct us as to its correct use?
Perhaps you recall God told our first parents they could eat of every tree but one. They disobeyed and lost everything.
Now there is no tree with forbidden fruit. But, after the flood of Noah's day God again set out one prohibition for mankind. This time it involved blood.
(Genesis 9:3, 4) Every moving animal that is alive may serve as food for you. Just as I gave you the green vegetation, I give them all to you. 4 Only flesh with its life—its blood—you must not eat.
We can choose to obey and benefit or disobey like Adam and Eve with consequences.
Originally posted by roigamAnd here you are deliberately leaving words out of verse 29 in an attempt to make your point. Quite disgraceful really.

Verse 29 is about animal sacrifice and blood rites, and not life saving blood transfusions. And you are willing to pick out and extract words and remove them from their verse and isolate them from the complete sentence they came from in order to convince others that your corporate us-and-them affirming stance is somehow biblical, when it clearly isn't.
Originally posted by roigamThis cannot be depicted as having anything whatsoever to do with life saving blood transfusions.
(Genesis 9:3, 4) Every moving animal that is alive may serve as food for you. Just as I gave you the green vegetation, I give them all to you. 4 Only flesh with its life—its blood—you must not eat.
(Genesis 9:3-40) Everything that lives and moves about will be food for you. Just as I gave you the green plants, I now give you everything. But you must not eat meat that has its lifeblood still in it.

I don't think I actually thanked you, per se, for your information but I certainly welcome the advancement in medical practice that you have drawn our attention to.
However, I'm not sure what you mean by people arguing "like spiritually void humans" unless you are referring to your fellow JW robbie carrobie who has spent more than a dozen thread pages here resisting and rejecting any discussion of this issue from a spiritual point of view or refusing to place it in the context of a spiritual discussion - so blatantly and clumsily, it's comical.
If your partisanship has blinded you to what has been going on on this thread ~ and thus perhaps inadvertently given your comment a strong whiff of disingenuousness ~ then you should reflect upon it.

So what is your name calling, goading and refusal to answer point blank questions called? If my behaviour is deemed 'tabloid' what do you characterise your behaviour as?

EXEMPLARY!
