Partaking of the emblems
by pralis in
1. watchtower
2. beliefs
i've always been curious as to the reasons why only "the anointed" were permitted to partake of the emblems at the memorial.

we all know that the wtbts says the "other sheep" are the non-anointed christians who merely observe the memorial (by the way, by "other sheep" jesus was talking about the gentiles that would become part of the new covenant; he wasn't referring to some strange class of non-anointed christians).

they've often compared the situation to the foreigners in the congregation of israel who were not permitted to observe the passover (see exodus 12:38, 43 -- they draw this correlation because the memorial is the replacement for the passover observance).

What Satanic Rituals???
by Nathan Natas in
1. jw
2. friends
in a recent post metatron and judith mentioned in passing that dubs they knew had been involved in satanic rituals.

forgive my morbid curiousity, but exactly what sorts of rituals were these?.

bear in mind that as dubs we were told that the rituals of the roman catholic church were satanic, that smurfs were satanic, that rock'n'roll was satanic, etc., etc.
