JW’s do not reject Jesus. All propaganda which sadly people will gullibly believe rather than check out the facts. Is this myth that JW’s don’t accept Christ perhaps because they know that the doctrine of the trinity is found nowhere in the Bible & didn’t become a part of the doctrine of christendom until the 3rd century? This false doctrine states that God, Christ & the holy spirit are one God, co-equal & co-eternal. Many JW’s are buried also. It’s a personal choice. And for the information of the uneducated commenter, Jesus was not buried, duh! He was not placed under the earth but in a tomb. No digging involved. If you have a Bible, look it up. In fact, you might try reading it so you know what you’re talking about before you speak!

Jehovah’s Witnesses have no problem w/having hip or knee replacements. I know many who have had these surgeries performed. They just make sure they have a good doctor & one who will respect their stand on blood. And in answer to one comment, God doesn’t want us to experience unnecessary pain. JW’s don’t refuse surgery & can’t think of any that can’t be done w/o blood transfusions & far more safely I might add. Prince’s ‘pelvic thrustin gyratin & splits’ were done before he became a JW which was in this decade. You can find all these facts on Google so check it out before you start making false, misleading statements. Oh, sorry, I forget that this is what so many are intentionally doing.

Prince’s personal medical decisions are surely made with both God and his health in mind. Anyone who is aware of Bible Scriptures know that Jehovah God prohibits accepting blood from both people and animals. Those of us who have refused blood transfusions based on this premise during medical emergencies, remaining faithful to God despite peer pressure from those who are unaware or unwilling to accept Bible Scriptures as God’s word, know that the only reason doctors push the blood transfusion on us is because it is cheaper. You want to talk abourt dangerous medical decisions? Most doctors agree that it is more dangerous to accept a blood transfusion than the bloodless alternatives Witnesses do accept. Our refusal of blood transfusions mean we put God first, not what others think. Afterall, he is the one that sets the rules for all of us despite the fact that so many refuse to accept them.

Prince is not a Jehovah’s Witness(not baptized) although he is studying the bible with them. He’s gonna have to stop with all the freakiness and bad habits first. He does not need a blood transplant for hip surgery. The bible forbids taking in other people’s/animals blood so that is probably why he refused a blood transplant. You don’t think in all these years of medical advancement they have not come up with an alternative to using somebody else’s nasty donated blood for a transfusion??? They do and the hospital and your insurance company don’t want to pay for it. That’s why they push donated blood on you, plus they only test it for HIV like that’s the only thing you can contract from a transfusion, but there are alternatives. Please don’t be ignorant on here and bad mouth J W’s, my grandmother is one and if you have any ?’s just ask. Also, for the the record Michael Jackson, his siblings, and his father were never J W’s.

Prince became a Jehovah Witness recently, back in ’01. He was a Christian during his prime era’s.

That boy better go ahead and get those hip replacements. JW’s didn’t seem to have a problem with all that pelvic thrustin gyratin and splits he was doin in the 70′s 80′s and 90′s. It’s sad when we allow ourselves to be led blindly. If there is a God in heaven that exists to love us, why on earth would he want us to experience unnecessary pain?!!
Ah’m just sayin.

Your article is lacking key points and facts. I really wish you would have done some background work and reported on the alternative methods that are available aside from blood transfusions. Get your facts together and try to post a complete story.

Prince maybe scared of the surgery, but there are alternatives. And I don’t blame him nor JW for not wanting others blood in their bodies. People can sell their bodily fluids for $25.00. And all you have to do is fill out a form as the screening process. Imagine all the drug users selling blood and plasma, that is eventually put into someone else. I know many JW who have had surgeries and didn’t accept someone else blood, and they have made full recoveries. Prince stop acting like a baby get the surgery.

They have partial Hip Replacement Surgery now where 90 percent of the hip bone is left in tact and only the ball cap is replaced and the ball socket it is less invasive surgery with less blood loss and a much faster healing and recovery time with a much smaller a mount of physical therapy involved but time is of the essences the longer he waits the less likely he will have this option available to him these types of Hip Surgery’s for Dancers are not that uncommon these Day’s.

If yall speak to Prince tell him to try out all the other alternatives first.Its a good possibility if he gets a hip surgery that it will eventually cause him pain to in the future.And surgery of coasre is irreversable.I get tired of seeing people suffering because surgeries when they have alternatives they arent told about by their doctors(some doctors will give you surgery just for the profit they get off of it).All of them arent like that.

I have friends who are Jehovah’s Witnesses.The ones I know are good people.Ofcoarse you have good and bad as in any group of people.The thing I wonder about the religion is if someone read the bible and saw witnesses of Jehovah then used it to recruit for their religion.I may be wrong but the name Jehovah’s Witnesses stirs up curiosity in my mind.

I would say that it depends on rather the surgery in question was d oto and physical injury like a car accident that led to it or rather it was physiological. If it is physiological I would encourage him to go see several nutritionists to see what’s in his diet that may be leading to the deteriation of relative tissue and the likes as well as get sugesstions from them of nutritional supplements he can add to his diet to reverse the matter in question.

I do not follow a religion like the Jehovah’s Witness’ religion or any religion that rejects Lord Jesus Christ (God in the form of Man) and that religion takes the Bible and converts it into its own secular thinking. They believe in creamation only, but Lord Jesus Christ, when he died for our sins, was not creamated; he was buried and rose from the dead. If it’s not in the Bible, I will not take man’s word (regardles if they are a church official or regular person) over God’s Word. Get the surgery Prince; there’s nothing in God’s Word that forbids it. I know about the Jehovah’s Witness religion. My mother’s family are Witnesses and tried to convert us. In the Bible, Jesus had disciples that witnessed to the world on his behalf. Jehovah’s Witnesses, changed disciples to Witnesses.

Yes just to back up what TanyaInSacramento said, many hospitals (ie. Bridgeport-Yale Hosptital, Bridgeport,CT)across the country have designed entire practices and centers in regards to “bloodless surgery” in there hospitals. This story is completely misinformed

JW’s have no problem with surgery..and they also believe in alternative methods in place of blood transfusions. Your article is giving a false statement. I used to study with Jehovah’s Witnesses…
