A will would've prevented these supposed kids from getting an inheritance? You're saying those kids have a shot at a piece of his estate through DNA testing, which would prove they're his kids and the law could divvy it up to them how it sees fit? |

He didn't have a will because he was a Jehovah's Witness. They are some truly strange ****ing people.

Being a JW has absolutely nothing to do with having, or not having a will. No where is it encouraged, or discouraged, or discussed in any circumstance.

It would have been difficult, if not impossible, for people to claim inheritance based on being related to him. Without a will, people not previously identified as heirs can challenge for a piece of his estate. |

Yeah, I have close relatives that are JW... some very odd customs no doubt, but I dont think having a will is among them

I have family that are, and family that are not JW's. Outside of not celebrating holidays (what many people view as weird,) my family that are JW's are some of the most fun, happy, respectful people I know. I don't know if I agree with odd customs coment TBH (my personal opinion), they simply read the bible and try and live their lives by it.

Its just that I've always felt strongly that God doesnt care if you have a birthday party, or get together with other family on what non-JW call Christmas. Even though its true Christmas is a bastardized holiday, its still just about the only time of year you can guarantee that everyone will atleast try to get together Only JW will go to Heaven, all other so called Christian faiths are basically apostates, even if they're sometimes well meaning... that one always gave me a hairlip, though they've stopped saying that for the last many years Its a long story, my dearest Great Grandmother (same side as living family) was a highly devout Jehovas Witness |

Ok, maybe we're not as far from each other as it seems then.
I don't have any desire to see people develop addictions to pain meds because I can see how much it can **** up lives. But if I have to take a chance that one more person will become addicted in order to relieve one more person's pain, I'll err on the side of relieving the pain.

All of them, IMO. Find another way to prevent those deaths than asking those in real pain to grin and bear it.

Medical marijuana. It really does wonders with much less of an addiction problem.

Marijuana does some great things medicinally, but it doesn't relieve pain nearly as well as opiates. It's not even close.
