More than 80 followers of David Koresh perished over a 51-day period at the Branch Davidian compound outside Waco, Texas, and the whole world watched. Jehovah's Witnesses have been dying one at a time, refusing vaccinations from 1931 to 1952, refusing organ transplants from 1967 to 1980, and refusing blood transfusions from 1944 to now, without attracting much attention. Yet, with 4.5 million full members and 11.5 million attending meetings, the number of Jehovah's Witnesses dying in obedience to their leaders adds up to a tragedy worse than Waco.

Will this holocaust equal the Jewish holocaust?,
By A Customer
This review is from: Worse than Waco: Jehovah's Witnesses hide a tragedy (Paperback)
People still talk about the horror of what happened at Waco to the Branch Davidian Compound, yet this event pales in significance when compared with the Watchtower caused holocaust. Reed gives the background and statistics about the Watchtower holocaust, and much much more. As was once said, when thousands are killed it is a statistic, but when one person is killed it is a tragedy. Reed puts a face on this holocaust. by discussing the lives of some of those many men, women, and children that have perished in the Watchtower holocaust. Some estimate that the number could be over 250,000 persons died from not only refusing life blood related medical treatment but also due to refusing organ transplants and even orthodox medicine (and instead relying on crackpot worthless treatment such as radiodiagnosis, treatment by mysterious radio waves). All of this began largely because high level Watchtower officials, especially Clayton J. Woodworth and William Hudgings, distrusted and actively opposed orthodox medicine. And like the Nazi holocaust, the actual total number will never be known with certainty. After world war II the Jews said never again, yet a holocaust is occurring right now with hardly anyone calling the world's attention to it. Fortunately David Reed is one who is standing up to do what is right and bringing this to the attention of the world.

Missinformation,
By Ian Davison (California) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Worse than Waco: Jehovah's Witnesses hide a tragedy (Paperback)
If anyone has turned to this book it has definately been because they have never spoken with one of Jehovah's Witnesses or DOCTORS regarding blood transfusions. Jehovah's Witnesses DO seek medical treatment. If anyone would go on the internet and look up BLOODLESS SURGERY you will see that there is NO NEED TO USE BLOOD. There are blood alternatives. Mr. Reed is telling everyone that the earth is flat earth and that people are still using leaches. In my opinion, he is using an OLD controversial prejudice to make money.
