The posts and the correspondence between the Watchtower Society and the government of Bulgaria are all in the H20 archives, but I will attempt to summarize.

This was a recent incident.

In order for the WTS to be recognized as a legitimate religionin the country of Bulgaria, the WTS had to stipulate in writing that they would not punish anyone in their religion who agreed to have a blood transfusion. There was a lot more to it than this, but my memory doesn't recall all the details at this late hour in my part of the world.

The bottom line was that the WTS, by signing the Bulgarian document created a different standard for its members there than it did in the rest of the world. The Mexico/Malawi situation was an earlier example of this same type of hypocrisy.

Perhaps someone else would be so kind and dig up the evidence and present it for our new reader on H20.

Thanks.
