I would have no problem aiding another human being in their time of need, but I wonder if they would accept assumed "evil" blood. I mean, we have no morals, right? So let's see shall we?

Well from what I hear, a lot of religious people think Atheists are evil, as though we plot to bereft the planet of any order or good. I'm not saying all do, but it seems most. I know there's good religious folk out there(and they usually don't try to "push" religion on me), I'm friends with many. It's simple, they say I'm gonna burn up and I retort that I think they're nuts. We laugh and carry on with our day. I can live with that.

No I would not accept your blood, and being a Atheist has nothing to with it. The bible, God's word tells us to abstain from blood.

What do you mean Evil? Just because you are an atheist doesn't make you evil. You just do not have the same beliefs as I do. That is just silly talk. What does that have to do with anything??????
I would accept blood from you if I needed it and if you were a match to mine. I donate my platelets to the Blood Center on a regular basis. I don't care who gets it. I want whomever needs it to receive it.

Every ones beliefs have nothing to do with morals or evilness. It is the way we treat others and act. Not what religion or no religion we believe in.

Yes. Accepting your blood would not effect my Christianity.
You, in offering the blood. I would survive, and have a new
friend, and so would you. being. Being Atheist does not mean
you don't have high moral standards to live by.I know a good
Atheist who received a heart transplant from a christian, but
it has not made her a christian, at least not yet.

There is a blood shortage "NOW" so the" Red Cross" would be happy to accept. Anyone reading this message can also
help by calling their number, and give often as possible.

Depends on 'how' you are offering it....cut a vein and let me drink thereof? Thank you, no....The soul is in the blood and I don't want it commingled with mine.

Via a blood bank transfusion...? If I'm in that kind of shape...I won't even ask where it came from or quibble about it. LOL

Did you know that the next closest thing to blood is water !!

There's a very enigmatic verse in Rev. where...for some reasons...people have been wanting blood to drink..like maybe the vampire cults take off and grow exponentially..or, more likely, there is not much potable water...And guess what God does...He turns the rivers to blood...and those who poured out the blood of His prophets and servants have to drink it. Interesting, huh..?

And, of course, your generous offer may be a tongue in cheek offer..based upon the Eucharist..wherein we Christians partake of the blood and flesh (symbolically) of the Lord Jesus, in remembrance of Him, but also to be empowered by Him, and to demonstrate 'our will' to be conformed to a 'likeness' of Him.

Wrap your brain around those ideas; and let me know what you come up with. Thanks

I know, I know...another bible quote. But this one will answer your question and anyone (christian or otherwise) against it.
Act 17:26-And He has made from one blood every nation of men to dwell on all the face of the earth,...
This means all races,sexes, etc. are from ONE blood. So yes, bro, I would and if you needed it I would give(all if necessary). Not all christians think the same, even if your not one you ARE still loved. Be blessed.
Note: Acts 15:29 is speaking of animals offered to idols, blood (drinking of, disgusting things like a rare steak(ingesting)etc., cannibalism)

People, even Christians, donate blood all of the time. There is no knowing where or who gets that blood. It doesn't matter. They do it to help save fellow humans. Even if it's a life of an atheist.

Jeff my expensive, in case you lived my existence i think you would be Christian. The reasoning for it is my parents and how we've been raised. My mom's nickname is St. Millie. We have been raised interior the church. it is significant. even with the undeniable fact that, the examples my candy mom set for us replaced into the main effect. She is loving, kind and nonjudgmental. She is extremely reliable and religious. She no longer purely "talks the communicate" she "walks the walk". She spend the final public of her time interior the church and doing reliable works for others. She additionally likes to be stupid, snicker, comedian tale and have a reliable time. on condition that i understand your mom is a Christian lady, i could stay Christian. it incredibly is a secret to me why you do no longer "have faith". i understand you're a spectacular, being concerned individual. Your mom and that i've got no longer given up desire which you will some day be pulled back into the "mild". :) ((Jeff))

It is nice of u too offer blood to someone who needs it in times of need.In such a world of evil u have a very good heart.

If u see the religious people in JESUS times didnt agree that JESUS should heal on sabbath.But he did.It wasnt a sin.So u see sometimes religious people will do that ways.

U must however understand that when the first man sinned we got separated from GOD.since GOD is holy he cant bear sin in his presence.So he needs something to wash ur sins off which is why he sent JESUS to die for us so we can be washed from our sins and reconciled back to him.

GOD loves u so much that he sent his son JESUS to die for u to reconcile u back.

"For GOD so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son that whoso ever believeth in him shall not perish but have everlasting life".Ask JESUS to come into your heart and forgive ur sins and cleanse ur past with his blood.

With a simple prayer like above u can be saved.

But if u reject such a plan from GOD u must be prepared to face the wrath of GOD.eternal separation and hell.

Your body has little to do with the state of your soul. As long as you don't have AIDS or some such thing, blood is blood. I'd take it. It's not like the recipient of blood or plasma even knows where the blood comes from, they certainly don't put your name on the bag. If you'd ever given blood you'd know that.
Give blood-save a life.

Yes I would because...
Most Christians don't judge people on religion because God made us all. God created people all similar and tells us to treat you neighbours as yourself. God said this so we wouldn't be skeptical of others. Just because a person is another religion does not mean that they are "evil" just that they choose to believe in different things. If you offered your blood I think anybody would be grateful to accept no matter what religion.

me personally, I grew up Catholic but I don't really go to church, say my prayers like I used to, and so on, but I still believe in a powerful God. (I may not believe in one particular religion, but I know I believe in something if that makes since).
I would generously tke thew blood and thank you in my words (if possible), actions, thoughts and prayers. I believe that everyone, Atheist, Catholic, Jewish, black, white, asian, short, tall, thin, big, teacher or a criminal deserves a chance. I am not God, and I try my hardest everyday to not judge, but I am not perfect, I'm sure I can BE judgemental.
But I would accept and maybe do the same for you or one of your loved ones, one day being a donor myself.
