Teenage Jehovah's Witness 'died after refusing blood'
Joshua McAuley
Tributes to Joshua McAuley have been placed at the crash site

A teenage Jehovah's Witness crushed by a car as it crashed into a West Midlands shop is thought to have died after refusing a blood transfusion.

Joshua McAuley, 15, was airlifted to hospital from the incident in Smethwick on Saturday but died later that day.

Elder at Smethwick's Kingdom Hall of Jehovah's Witnesses Clive Parker said Joshua, who worshipped there, had "made a stand on the blood issue".

A post-mortem examination is due to be carried out on Thursday.

Joshua is believed to have told doctors at Selly Oak Hospital not to give him a blood transfusion on religious grounds.

Jehovah's Witnesses refuse transfusions because they believe the use of products derived from blood is forbidden by God.


It is a very complex area that has to be approached on a case-by-case basis
Selly Oak Hospital spokesman

A spokesman for West Midlands Police said Joshua's family, who live in Smethwick, did not wish to comment.

Mr Parker said Joshua was conscious after the accident in Cape Hill. He added the family worshipped at Smethwick's Kingdom Hall.

He said: "A mother has lost her son, and Joshua had a brother. He has lost his brother, he was there in the morning and then gone by the afternoon. They are terribly distressed."

A spokesman for Selly Oak Hospital would not comment on the individual case but described the issue as an "extraordinarily complex area" with no set rules.

"There is no automatic right to override parental wishes or that of a minor. It is a very complex area that has to be approached on a case-by-case basis," he said.

Two other adults were injured in the crash, which happened in the Cape Hill area at 1114 BST.

Police said a 24-year-old woman was in a serious but stable condition in hospital and a 32-year-old man sustained a suspected broken arm and leg.

A 28-year-old man from the Winson Green area of Birmingham was arrested after the crash and bailed pending further inquiries.

I just passed nursing school and they teach us that we have to be neutral to this, no matter how much we want to just give it to them, or make them take it. Very sad indeed. There are some JW's (who have the funds) who stockpile blood months before a major surgery.

Oh definitely!

How anyone could ever be a scientologist is beyond me. Seriously, what the fuck is wrong with those people? Do they like science fiction a little too much that they need to apply it to their core beliefs?

Jason Lee is a scientologist :facepalm: WHY?!?!

Being Christian is just as retarded.  I mean at least a lot of the Scientologists knew L. Ron Hubbard, or at the very least read some of his works.  Actually, being Christian is even more retarded.  At least L Ron Hubbard lived to see some type of modern science.  The Bible was written by a bunch of sheep herders.

Oh really?  How many people died in the name of Christianity?  Islam?  How can you even compare the shit the major 3 world religions has caused to some retarded cult.  I know they don't worship L Ron Hubbard, but he wrote Dianetics.

L. Ron was a science fiction writer and his cult's beliefs have no basis in reality.

He also said this "Writing for a penny a word is ridiculous. If a man really wants to make a million dollars, the best way would be to start his own religion."

So how could anyone believe his shit? At least the Bible is engraved in us since the day we're born so I understand why people would believe in that.

They're both incredibly ridiculous but you have to be one looney fuck to be a scientologist believeing in thetans, Xenu and E-meters.

I honestly think you have to be just as fucking retarded to believe that the god made the world in 6 days, that god made plants before he made the sun, that Noah was able to fit 2 of every species of animal except fish on a boat, and that the bible is to be taken literally.  I think they are both retarded.
