People said: Child saved from parents, wow I think that sometimes people are so cruel, they dont think about the things they said...I think that we are so blind and lie too.

They have to worry about the children that get abused by their parents, they get raped, molested, dont know what family time is, they have no morals or some one to teach it to them. Jehovahs Withness dont give their children away, or send them out, they teach them the values of a family and life, try to raise them in Gods love, no drugs, no sex before marriage, no lie, not to be selfish, respect, and most important love..

THe blood thing comes up, and they attack them like the worse peope in the world, I think that if we all tryied to be like Jehovahs people are, this world would be a better place, and happy place.

They are agaings drugs, smoking, violance, sex before marriage, abortion, they dont do crimes, drink but dont get drunk, dont lie, dont go to wars, dnt use guns, they are against divorce.

The teach their children a way to live in this world that's so bad, to be loyal and faithful to God...to hate what's bad in Gods eyes...Wow imagine if we all would do that, this would would be perfect for all of us...Oh wait

they dont vote neighter, they fallow the low, they dont go around doing all the crazy things that we like to do and just suffer from the consequences...

Wow after all they are great people, great neighbors, great parents....

Tami,  I hear you, but that is a very controlled situation. When someone is bleeding out, they need  blood.

My feelings come from losing a friend who was a Johova Witness.

What a good guy and a great father and family guide. Sadly he died directly from refusing blood that would have saved his life, and his children and wife would not have been left without a husband or father.

My mother is a devoted Jehovah's Witness. She has had many major heart surgeries and several various other surgeries and never once had a single blood transfusion. They use a cell saver machine that recycles your own blood. Many diseases have been spread by the use of blood transfusions that are not needed, not to mention many other complications. People are judging without being informed. Makes one look like a fool.

Well,from what I know,children may be considered as under the care of their parents,but it is also said that as long as they aren't 18(can decide for themselves),they may be considered as someone not officially under any religion(meaning their parents' religion is not of theirs, but merely guides to what they may choose to be under in the future) But then, I think about how the child would be growing up,she'd probably be ignored/neglected because of being "tainted".What a sad,twisted fate she would fall into. She would be saved from death,only to be submitted into a torturous life of rejection by her parents,because of living due to blood transfusion. So somehow,I just can't understand why people suddenly come up in society to create a sect that is said to be an "improvement" of a religion. I apologize if I'm disrespectful to the sects of the religion,but why can't people be satisfied of what has been long taught?Or if they're so unsatisfied,why don't they just quit the concept of religion altogether? I even feel that those who create the sects,merely feel the need to do so because of wanting others to believe their own concept of the religion/the Bible or they don't agree with a practice just because it's not convenient for them-or simply for the money and fame. I grow tired of the battles about religion since some are drowned in their own hopes and desires of salvation to hear the cry of sense and logic-much more in matters of people dying. If only life was simple... Sorry,I'm ranting.I just had a long debate with a Born-Again.I just really hate its superiority complex about salvation and whatnot...keep telling me "I'm just not as close to God as they are" Ugh and that "I'm not reading the Bible right" what is with that?How do THEY know they're reading it right?They answer with "God talks to us" right and He doesn't talk to me because "You're not Born Again"...that's where our conversation always ends...in circles really...
