   What you claimed was the truth, even when scripture opposed your stated   
   beliefs.

   Menstruating is a normal monthly occurrence. There is no reason to attempt to   
   qualify it, it was a long time issue that she spent money on, as an adult. A   
   hemophiliac is a lifetime situation from birth. It only is bothersome when   
   cut.   
      
   Does blood return to God, as it is life?   
      
   Obviously you are not considering what you claim. So why not study up on   
   Soul, Spirit, Blood, Life, from the scriptures solely and totally ignoring   
   the WatchTower Mag from men.   
      
   The questions I asked you all were designed to help you think, not just   
   repeating the dogma of the JW like a parrot. You appeared to keep falling   
   back on the mag’s thinking as if it was your brain, rather that thinking   
   about the word of God, solely and asking God to clarify your thoughts.   
      
   I am curious, what does WatchTower say about AI?
