How do JW's determine a person is anointed?
by thinker11 ini've always wondered about this.
when a person believes they made a spiritual connection with god and proclaims themselves as anointed, how do they determine whether this person is anointed or not.
does a group of elders look at the person's spiritual resume and check off the person's pioneer stats, bible knowledge, attendance, work ethic, personality, etc and then believe in the person if they have a good track record?

...kind of Rumplestilskin-esque of him, no?

When that book came out, there was a flurry of excitement about what those "two things" might be.
We never guessed they were his shoe size and his favorite color.

The single guy probably thinks he can pretend the disfellowshipped guy is dead.
The single guy may find himself having his ass kicked by a "ghost."
Hopefully there won't be two or more witnesses to this supernatural event.

Hospice and JW
by Terry Clees ini am a bereavement coordinator with a hospice company.
i have noticed that most often jw patients decline chaplain care and also the family ends up declining bereavement care.
where i work our chaplains do not proselytize at all...they merely walk with the patient in their faith at the end of life.

Q.: What can we do to serve our JW patients better?
A.: You are in a difficult position. Were you aware that The Watchtower Bible & Tract Society (WTB&TS) is opposed to interfaith or ecumenical events? The reason for this is simple: Jehovah's Witnesses believe that they have THE TRUTH and that all the churches of Christendom are snares and rackets operated by Satan. The only way you could overcome this would be to have a JW minister on your staff, and the catch-22 is that no real JW minister would agree to participate in such an effort.

Last installment of the Scientology series tonight on A & E
by nonjwspouse in10 pm est on arts and entertainment channel.
where leah began with the idea of just a few shows, i think she is now taking this on for "as long as it takes".
she is in that mode of being outraged that what she believed in so long is such a lie she wants to shout it from the rooftops, and get people to notice.

I just watched "Ask Me Anything, part 2" (our friend Steve Hassan was GREAT!)
...and now I see two more episodes on the schedule; an un-numbered one titled "What Went Down: Victim Blaming" and an episode #8 is scheduled, titled "Leah Remini - APOSTATE".
She is doing "The Lords Work" - freeing us of the domination of men who would be Kings and Priests over man.
"I should like this, and I mean it most sincerely, I should like to see the last King strangled with the guts of the last Priest" -- attributed to Voltaire, Diderot, and possibly others.

Randy, I owe you an apology, because I made a mistake. My mistake was that my recollection was fuzzy. Although I _AM_ the publisher of the "replica reprints" to which I made reference above, I am also the publisher of THIS book... does it ring a bell?
I had confused the titles involved in my earlier description of the way you "assisted" me with the distribution of the 2nd edition of Tony Wills' book, "A People for His Name." As I outlined above, you were willing to offer "A People for His Name" for sale on your FREEMINDS site only if the books were provided to you at no charge, so that you would be the sole beneficiary from those sales.
Ring a bell?
Go ahead, deny the facts; call me a liar.
Have you ever heard of the "Wayback Machine"? Yes, it is named after the amazing device featured in the "Mr. Peabody & Sherman" segments of "The Rocky & Bullwinkle" cartoon show, but the one I'm talking about is REAL -- it's no Bullwinkle.
Mr. Peabody, Sherman, and the WayBack Machine!
Its formal name is The Internet Archive - https://archive.org/ - and it preserves, as of right now, 279 BILLION snapshots of web pages!
AMAZING!
Here's one I am especially fond of right now: a snapshot of the FREEMINDS STORE from May 8, 2012! LOOK! You're offering copies of "A People for His Name" for sale!
How's that Memory Muscle working now, Randy?

I have identified myself, Randy. I am the person who is behind
http://www.lulu.com/spotlight/oldlightreprints
and who donated some of my replica reprint titles to FREEMINDS at no cost to you because you were unwilling to assist me unless it cost you nothing to do so.
Maybe you took all the books I sent you and put them in the garbage.
Maybe someone here can recall buying some of those replica reprints from you.
Maybe your memory is failing you.

I want to clarify something I said: "No one "assisted" me in any way. I had no 'minions' doing my bidding..."
Actually, there were many who assisted me, but I didn't treat them like "minions" and compensated them for their assistance, without which I would have been less successful.
I treasure those friends I have worked with.
