I agree wholeheartedly with your points. I realized with some research that the Society contradicts itself with the acceptance of blood fractions. Blood transfusions do have dangers, but so do some blood fractions for JW hemophiliacs.
Let each one decide for themselves without the Society dictating. How can any JW have blood fractions without blood donors when donating blood is wrong according to the Society? It's like saying we can't steal money but we can borrow
from stolen money. It would be a serious case of bloodguilt when the Society changes the policy to a "conscience" matter. I serve as the presiding overseer and Watchtower conductor in a Spanish congregation in New York City and I heard
practically all the weak arguments to support the contradiction. When the policy does change, JW's will just say "new light".....My wife and I will be out before then.
