Watchtower’s lawyer, Donald Ridley, writes to correct a secular author for stating that Witness parents “believe that taking in blood will result in the child's being cut off from the possibility of obtaining eternal life.”

Ridley writes:
Unfortunately, though Ridley takes time to correct this secular writer, he neglects to explain for sake of the same writer that there is a reason why Jehovah’s Witnesses have historically held the very view he shared.
Watchtower wrote:
Watchtower taught the community of Jehovah’s Witnesses to believe that letting their child have a blood transfusion was to endanger that child’s opportunity for everlasting life.
Perhaps Ridley should recommend to Watchtower that it do a better job undoing the belief it taught so individuals in the community of Jehovah’s Witnesses are no longer misguided by that teaching. For, it looks like Watchtower sent the wrong message.
