You know darn well this has been discused many times. Why do you keep bringing it up?
So, I'm asking how much blood is too much? How do you decide?

Acts 15:28, 29: “The holy spirit and we ourselves have favored adding no further burden to you, except these necessary things, to keep abstaining from things sacrificed to idols and (((( from blood, and from things strangled))))) and from fornication
Do you see this point here? By strangling one does not allow the blood drain out.
This is all God requires on this point is to let it hang and drain. He never said to weigh the animal, subtract the weight of the blood and formulate some equasion to know exactly how much the blood is in an animals body or anything of the sort. He said to drain it and once it has stopped draiining, your good in God's eyes.
So in reguards to an organ transpliant and if one decides to accept such a thing, all the patient can do is ask the medical staff to drain all the blood possible from the organ. Nothing more could be done then this.
The same would apply to eating meat. Yes there is always some blood left in it. No way at all to ever get it all out. God knows this but yet he gave the word to Noah that man could now eat meat but only under certian rules.
@ wussianne,
sigh, its a quotation from a football (soccer) manager. José Mourinho of Chelsea, a great man! that you were unaware but yet deemed yourself adequately qualified to comment is hardly surprising considering all other matters which you deem yourself to be qualified to pontificate upon! I have no idea what a short bus is but i suspect its a rather tasteless allusion to those with mental health issues.

It's sad because he seems to be a good guy as we've talked a little believe it or not. But even the worst sometimes get over the hate and misunderstandings of who God is and what he wants from us. We'll see....

As far as I know, you're just saying that now to avoid looking like a jackass.

Mourinho moved to Chelsea in June 2004, becoming one of the highest paid managers in football with a salary of £4.2 million a year, subsequently raised in 2005 to £5.2 million.[34] In a press conference upon joining the English side, Mourinho said, "Please don't call me arrogant, but I'm European champion and I think I'm a special one," which resulted in the media dubbing him "The Special One"
