i realize that the anointed class inherits heaven while the great crowd inherits a renewed planet earth, but how and when are the anointed chosen?
are these people born with spirits or do they grow them as they live?
when they die, they don't sleep but go right to heaven, right?
There is no 'choosing'. You just feel it. Like something comes over you. That's what I've been told by those who felt they were annointed. My maternal grandfather was one of those people.
Of course, you do realize, this is all bull shite, right?

the message would appear to be that jehovah needs money more than that old lady needs food:.

Just when you think they can't sink any lower...
in the congregation that i grew up in there were about 30 children under 16 (myself included).
as time went on they one by one slipped away from the meetings and most never got baptized.
of those 30 children only myself and two other girls stayed and got baptized.
Lynnie said: my uber elder cousin went to the Doobie brothers concert just recently which I was amazed about since it was held at a casino venue.
So, um, your uber elder cousin knows what a doobie is, right?

This religion will cease to exist in my immediate family, once my Dad passes away. Not only did their kids (me and my brothers) not get baptized, neither did any of the grandkids. Yessssss!

Health Problems: my Father can't even stay awake long enough to eat his meals let alone listen to Botchtower's clap trap. I control his money now. Botchtower has received nothing since that happened. And they will never receive any more. They were into him for 10's of thousands of dollars. NO MORE!
would i?
i wouldn't mind if he slept through eternity (he sleeps most of the time anyway).
i'd just like to be able to move him around occasionally.
Unfortunately, your cat is going to die before the JW version of Paradise Earth arrives. If you truly want your cat around for all eternity, follow berrygerry's advice.
yes my holy anionted mom who has cancer is concerned that the loving god jehovah may ask her in heaven to destroy here non believer family including her 5 year old grandchild during armagedon....how messed up are these crazy people!!?

a recent o.p origins of the universe bought home to me with ovbious clarity that i have no scientific background.
this realization was rather embarrassing for myself to admit, particularly as my child of 11 has began asking some rather intersting questions on scientific matters.
anyway i have subscribed to " scientific america" because i find it a great magazine for those with no scientific background.
YouTube also has a lot of good Science videos. The original "Cosmos" with Carl Sagan can be found there. Also check out James Burke's "Connections" series.
Edited to add: Even as an adult I also enjoyed the children's Science shows "Beakman's World" and "Bill Nye the Science Guy".
If I recall correctly, Farkel told us once he had COPD. That is not a pleasant condition to live with. It is chronic and progressive. I know because my Mom had it and died from it.
this is a report about the successful implementation of the patientbloodmanagent in germany and prof. zacharowski as well as the business trip of his life with shocking facts about transfusions in his bag.. http://screenart.tv/portfolio/gefaehrliche-bluttransfusionen.
this year 2016 president obama and vice biden awarded german physicians prof. kai zacharowski with humanitarian award for patient safety.
the patient safety movement foundation set the goal to massively reduce the number of preventable deaths of hospital patients worldwide by 2020.
Religion, which is based on mythology, needs to stay out of peoples' bedrooms and medical treatments.
