Is only a verbal confirmation enough or do the elders have to show official, like a printout from the place they got their shots. Like elders checking to make sure the documentation for not taking blood products? I wouldn't show them, I said only the medical system had to know.

30It’s started COBE asking all appointed men if they are fully vaccinated
by Indoubtbigtime inthere is a huge problem now in all congregations as the gb stubbornly will not do the u turn on staying fully vaccinated that many hoped they would do.. all congregations around the world the cobe has to ask all ministerial servants and elders if they are fully vaccinated (meaning no more than six months since last shot).
there is a massive problem now with many many jdubs not getting their latest boosters and not wanting to stay fully vaccinated .
but more serious than that is how the gb painted themselves into a corner with these vaccine mandates.. most governments did a u turn on the vax mandates but the gb can’t get out of this one so easily .

Who is a jw in reality? Well, since every jw seems to have their own answer/opinion about who is a real jw, it would be hard to pin down.

Actually about June 1973, the WTS came out with an article (study), that said using any tobacco product, coca leaves, and betel nut was spiritism, yes that's right, not a health issue. Several years after that article, the WTS stopped mentioning "spiritism" regarding those practices, but starting emphasizing "health issues." That is one technique the WTS uses, stop mention topics in the publications without out actively changing their viewpoint on it. Another example is the WTS no longer says a creative day is 7,000 years long (last mention in 1987), but only "thousands and thousands of years> "Watchtower 1973 Jun 1 "The Scriptural evidence points to the conclusion that they do not. As has been explained in other issues of this magazine, the Greek word phar·ma·ki´a used by Bible writers and translated "practice of spiritism" or "spiritistic practices" has the initial meaning of "druggery." (Gal. 5:20; Rev. 9:21) The term came to refer to spiritistic practices because of the close connection between the use of drugs and spiritism. Tobacco was also used initially by the American Indians in this way. It can properly be placed, therefore, in the category of addictive drugs like those that provided the source for the Greek term phar·ma·ki´a. … Do we want to have Jehovah God be a speedy witness against us as addicts to drugs or other habit-forming injurious weeds, things that expose us to the influence of the spirit demons? Jehovah’s judgment against such addicts during the oncoming "great tribulation" will mean their destruction." ↩" (w87 1/1 p. 30 - The Watchtower—1987 last mention)

What does Watchtower think of being Medically Assisted in Death (MAiD)?
by Vanderhoven7 inthere has been much political controversy in canada over the acceptability of maid.
what, if anything, has watchtower said about this issue?.

Vanderhoven7, not that I could find even the most recent publications. Even hospitals regulate how much morphine they give terminal patients, enough to alleviate the pain, but not to kill them. Usually they have a drip machine attached to your vein that regulates how much you can take over a specified period of time. Of course, refusing medication or treatments that don't heal but only alleviate pain are not considered suicide so far by the WTS. I see that the WTS stance on blood transfusion contradicts what they said above in print. But when has the WTS not talked out of both sides of their mouths?
