Morphine. can JWs use that, it goes back to biblical times? after that the only crucial drug they miss out on is penicillin . and i think mouldy bread can work... I would trade biblical medicine for modern medicine in many things, just not the sacrifices.
Oh! An abominable sin indeed! 😀
Actually, they are not looking to go the heaven anyway. They want to live on a paradise earth.

Originally posted by RJHindsThey still use things like ECT, I think they still use a platinum based anti cancer drug from the 1900s sometimes (and not because its particualy good) and theres so many rubbish pills for mental problems up till a few years ago you were better of without them but the Drs pushed them. (they are better but olanzapine for example makes some people fat even though it does have benefits) I had an interesting conversation with a Dutch Doctor who said not prescribing pills was the key to keeping his patients healthy, apparently in Holland they are very reluctant to prescribe and the stats show it works.

My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge.
Because you have rejected knowledge,
I also will reject you from being priest for Me;
Because you have forgotten the law of your God,
I also will forget your children.

-Removed-If you believe any religion ( and I do not )
then the righteous shall be saved and others will not.
So it depends on what you believe to be righteous.
There are lots of people out there who are telling you
that this is righteous and this is not.
Their opinions differ so greatly that it makes all religions farcical.
So here is my take on it, no matter what religion you want to take on.
Love one another, help one another, do unto others what you would
like them to do unto you. Be helpful, be constructive.
Do not bear false witness. Tell the truth always.
If you can be a decent human being then maybe others can learn
and be the same.
That is the proper way to live.
How many times must people say it?

I'm not advocating a mallet and saw for broken legs but i don't like modern medicine, i avoid it, but do give it credit when it produces silver bullets - drugs without side effect or drugs that work against something serious - but there are gaping holes and a lack of understanding of cannabis it has a big evolutionairy role in humans - it receptor duh - only plant to have one - and the lies about it make me see lies and there are plenty about prescription drugs.
