Science vs Religion: A study of the NOMA model in relation to Jehovah's Witnesses

My project aims to evaluate the differences in viewpoints between Jehovah’s Witnesses and healthcare workers specifically in their refusal to donate or receive blood products. I believe that this topic can both validate the use of the NOMA principle due to the Jehovah’s Witnesses literal interpretation of certain Bible verses but also demonstrate what a NOMA violation would look like as demonstrated by the ethical, legal, and autonomic conflict shown in the articles in which the wishes of a Jehovah’s Witness to receive blood products and the requirement for the healthcare worker to abide by their wishes and potentially watch them die.

Abstract

My project aims to evaluate the differences in viewpoints between Jehovah’s Witnesses and healthcare workers specifically in their refusal to donate or receive blood products. I believe that this topic can both validate the use of the NOMA principle due to the Jehovah’s Witnesses literal interpretation of certain Bible verses but also demonstrate what a NOMA violation would look like as demonstrated by the ethical, legal, and autonomic conflict shown in the articles in which the wishes of a Jehovah’s Witness to receive blood products and the requirement for the healthcare worker to abide by their wishes and potentially watch them die.
