the scottish citizens who received infected blood (which you bring up in nearly every blood debate) are real people. so are the british homosexual men with hiv (that you bring up all the time). are they not 'props'???

I dont know, maybe, i have never thought about it, if I am honest.

I have never told anyone that, what I actually say is, Hello, my name is Robbie, would you be interested in a free home Bible study, if they say yes, then i demonstrate how we study, if they say no then i thank them for their time and say goodbye.

seconds out round 2(there appears to be a slight cut above stellspalfys left eye it must have been self inflicted as Robbie has yet to throw a punch)ding ding

have you given any thought to potentially using physical violence or real blood to save your children?

No but then again i haven't been looking out for UFO's or Grande piano's falling from the sky either.

On the contrary great Vince, the blood issue in the case of children or minors is a non issue, its simply out of a parents hands and to therefore hypothesize about it is irrational and illogical and unreasonable. In the case of violence a Christian is allowed to use self defense to protect themselves, what that defense amounts to is a matter of conjecture, however, it is forbidden to take life.

the probability of children needing blood transfusions or being physically. attacked can hardly be compared to the probability of seeing ufo or piano falling from the sky.

its not irrational to ask you what you would decide it were in your hands. many jw's in the past have had to make tough decisions. its not a huge leap for you to put yourself in their shoes.............that is of course unless you just want to dodge giving an answer.

Yes it can for as i have stated, the blood issue with regard to minors is a non issue and is likely to cause as much dilemma as a piano falling from the sky and I have lived in Glasgow almost all my life and can count on one hand the number of times Ive been attacked, but rather interestingly, only last week when my wife was loading groceries into the back our truck her trolly was preventing a driver from reversing out of the car park, the man got out and started to give her some lip, I immediately jumped out and told him to get back in his car and shut up it was no way to talk to a lady, happily for him, he complied 😀

the blood issue is a non issue in the case of minors, there is nothing to discuss, no moral dilemma, nada! the use of violence however leaves room for debate.

what if he had physically attacked your wife? what then, would you stand there, fumbling for your mobile to call the police waiting patiently for 5 minutes for them to turn up.
