I would check with the individual States to determine which online schools are accepted for State employment. I know that Texas excludes the majority of online schools as not acceptable for fulfilling education requirements for State jobs. If the State doesn't accept a degree, it is unlikely it will be very useful to other employers.

Who was the first person to become a Jehovah's Witness in your family?
by RULES & REGULATIONS inmy mom,dad,uncles,aunts,and grandparents were all raised catholic.
they were all baptised and married in the catholic church.. one day in the early 1960's,a witness preached to my uncle.
he started a bible study and later had his immediate family join in.

WANTED ! JW Apologist
by wobble inthis must have been mentioned before,but now reniaa is back it could be fun.. if jw's are even part way to the truth,and all other religions are false, then they must have a doctrine that is unique to them,given by holy spirit, but plainly taught in the bible,without resorting to fancifull exegesis and bouncing around from verse to verse out of context etc.. what is that doctrine?.
love.

Thank you Reniaa...and I agree that many of God's chosen ones strayed and sinned, but they did not practice falsehoods for any extended time...and as you pointed out, they were punished and repented.
The problem I have, and I may not have been clear, is that if Jehovah chose the FDS in 1919 (as claimed by the WTBTS), why did those chosen people continue in "false worship"? The Bible Students still used the cross, celebrated holidays, worshipped Jesus, accepted military service and believed in aspects of Pyramidology and Astrology at the very time they were "chosen". They did not abandon these practices until many years later...would it make sense that the religions of the earth were examined at that time and God would choose a people who engaged in the same practices as the ones God rejected. I am not aware of them being punished after their being chosen for their trespasses against true worship.
If "new light" being revealed as time went on is the answer to all of this, why would this be? Nearly 2000 years had already passed without approval of "apostate" Christendom...why would those very apostate practices now be overlooked during the Master's examination of the Slave? What made this small group of Adventist rooted people different from any other Millenial group of its day?
I know these are alot of questions, but it really boils down to one...the entire JW authority as God's channel on earth hinges on this appointment as the FDS in 1919. What makes that so?...is it because the very people claiming that appointment say it is? I could say I was appointed by God as his channel, but I doubt anyone today would buy in to that premise...explain why it is any more plausible that it occurred in 1919 to a group practicing most of what Christendom did at that time...as claimed by the JW's. Thanks...

Reniaa...I appreciate your sincerity and desire to find the "Truth", but I am still hoping you can address my question earlier:
Question?...when has Jehovah ever chosen a messenger that was steeped in "false religious" practices, continued in those practices, and then used them on an on-going basis? Did any of the ancient men of faith continue in their "detestable" ways? Did Paul continue his pharasaic practices after his experience on the road to Damascus?
Your earlier answer to me didn't address the question, but rather focused on a mis-direction about judging. I am not trying to trap you, but rather point out a question that led me to "dig deeper". The question isn't whether other belief systems are wrong but rather whether JW's are right. Let's address this question and then we can have other discussions on doctrinal issues. We first have to establish authority rather than doctrinal correctness.

Reniaa...I see the premise that all believing JW's rely upon is that the FDS is an accurate interpretation and that it is God's direct choosing of them as his channel "to preach the message and fulfill these end times we live in".
Question?...when has Jehovah ever chosen a messenger that was steeped in "false religious" practices, continued in those practices, and then used them on an on-going basis? Did any of the ancient men of faith continue in their "detestable" ways? Did Paul continue his pharasaic practices after his experience on the road to Damascus? I am guessing you won't answer this directly, but I would think you might want to think on it before condemning every other faith (or lack of faith) for their hypocrisy or false teachings.
