:Is IYHO (in your humble opinions) the Catholic hospital stance (as I presented it; please correct me if I'm wrong), ethical? Should the Watchtower Society take a similar stance should they start buying hospitals, would that be ethical?

People rarely die if they don't have their tubes tied, although that would put a heavy financial burden on someone with 9 children as you mentioned.

Failure to administor or accept blood transfusions has in thousands of cases put a significantly heavier burden on the patient: one from which the patient never recovers.

You're comparing apples to oranges, Rick. The ethics involved in your example are two dissimilar to compare.
