No one has come up with any hard numbers yet on how many children die each year from their parents not letting them have a blood transfusion. And yet a few here condemn us for that biblical backed command That we are simply following.
If the ones here are truly concerned and upset and would like to voice their opinions on the abuse children recieve from their parents, check out these sites and maybe throw your energy and hatred for parents abusing their children:
Just a few of hundreds of sites with info on what children go thru either directly or indirectly from their parents.
These are things JW parents would never do to their children. But if they did they would be removed from the congregation, unlike most so called christian churches today who would not remove them.

'Pure evil'? Hilarious.
For example in a Biblical context
That which results in pain, sorrow, or distress. In order to convey the correct thought in English, the very comprehensive Hebrew word ra' is variously translated as “bad,” “gloomy,” “ugly,” “evil,” “calamitous,” “malignant,” “ungenerous,” and “envious,” depending upon the context. (Ge 2:9; 40:7; 41:3; Ex 33:4; De 6:22; 28:35; Pr 23:6; 28:22)
The Greek word kakos' may be defined as that which is (1) morally evil and (2) destructive; among the ways it has been translated are: “bad,” “evil,” “hurtful,” “injurious,” “wrong.” (Ro 7:19; 12:17; Col 3:5; Tit 1:12; Hebrews 5:14)

clearly by definition that are the very embodiment of evil, its personification, its essence incarnate etc etc etc Now you will tell us why they are not to be considered 'pure evil'.
