I was browsing my issues when I saw I had one called "Blood Banks Running Dry." Now, I had never had that one before, so you can understand my excitement to answer it.
However, once I started reading, I found a glaring problem. The second option you can choose has a man that claims to be a Jehovah's Witness denouncing blood donation. That part of the choice seems ok, but the rest is wrong.
Throughout that option the guy refers to God as God. A real Jehovah's Witness refers to Him as Jehovah most of the time.
Secondly, Jehovah does not want witnesses to monkey around with blood. He holds it sacred, so he would not like for us run around doing whatever comes to mind with it.
Thirdly, the guy says he would like to just get on with it and go to heaven. Only 144,000 (there are about 8,000 left) JW's will be going to Heaven; the rest of us are staying here on Earth, after the apocalypse.
Fourthly, there are no Gospels. That is a Catholic thing.
That about wraps up my complaints. I would like to see these rectified, if at all possible. The issue is giving people an unclear example of what a Witness is.
As a final note, I would like to point out that I am a Witness, or at least in-training to be. As such the above information is genuine, although I may have got a few things a little off the mark. For a better example, talk to an Elder.
