Are you unable or unwilling to answer my question, I can't quite work it out?
I have decided that the question is irrelevant to the topic and will be ignored.
Let the hounds howl.
Perhaps there is more than one point that could be taken from this post? That's up to each person here. I didn't refer or mention anything about this from a religious view point, I simply mentioned what the army is interested in from non JW doctors.
But anyone can take from this post whatever they want. If one is not interested in this info with something that could be used in the future if confronted with a major loss of blood, that is ones own personal decision.
But if one does not want to be given blood from another person or does not want to expose themselves to the many dangers involved from blood transfusions, here is an option one could look into.
If one is not interested, simply don't mention this option to your doctors.

Sure they have. I've never said they didn't save life's. ( But that statement does not imply that I would ever approve of one. )
Accepting a blood transfusion is ones own decision. But it's also one that could cause dire health issues that could affect their life for sometime afterwards or possibly forever or It could even mean their life if the complications get bad enough.
In times of deep distress when ones life or the life of a loved one is in danger, one has to decide which way to go in preserving that life.
This newer method that the US Army is wanting to learn as well as hospitals is an option that one can hopefully take to continue life.

I agree, and we should base that decision on the science and not religious views.

Yet the fact that you posted it here and not in the science forum suggests that you had some religious message to go with it. What is your religious message?
