I do think the dodging is silly ......Example -- Question: G-75 is the sky blue? Answer: G-75 how about them Yankees ? LOL or when presented with a question answering the question with a question which can be appropriate at times but not always ....He asked me a hypothetical question and I answered it of course I flipped back also to see how G-Man would answer it which is fair.....however normal conversation is hard when things are being dodged or other questions are being thrown out there and also the confusing of issues

Can you grow tomatoes in Scotland with any success ?

Oh jeez, not this again.
Thread 159181
We've all been here before, giving the same arguments,
and not showing any sign of any real appreciation for the opposition,
but instead resort to mocking and probing one another's intelligence.
Do yourselves HUGE favours and end this foolishness already!
You're NEVER gonna make the million move milestone if you spend all your time and energy on here 😀

I've been trying to make the distinction between eating / drinking / whatever with blood and Transfusion as factually and scientifically they are not one and the same .....JWs seem to blur the two together but you know I acknowledge they have the right to believe what they will .....

First point blank the blood is "entering your body" and if it has some dangerous diseases in it, could it not still infect you? Of course and probably would be more dangerous if it was directly put into you veins as stomach acids sometimes kills bacteria.
If you swallowed poison of some kind or injected it into you veins..same result, right? It's in you body and has the same affect.

Just offer up the best bible verse you have - not one about animal blood or pagan rites - but one about life-saving blood transfusions.
Whatever. You obviously are ignoring just common sense examples and are here only to argue.

Surely, blood should be checked to make sure it is the proper type and is free from disease. Otherwise, it could defeat the purpose of giving it.

Originally posted by galveston75Think about it for a minute .....blood belongs where ? Easy answer in your veins ( we all agree there is a small risk in receiving blood ) However you can get a disease by ingesting bad food or breathing in air and your right you could get a disease by drinking infected blood so what ? Scientifically receiving blood into your veins is very different from eating or drinking blood. They are different things NOT the same!! If you were to eat or drink blood it would go through the digestive process and apparently humans are not very good and digesting blood ( Not like true carnivores Lions for example ) and too much iron can cause iron poisoning. I disagree with you on this .....you ingest food to be digested but that is not the same as receiving blood into your veins
