Well I spend time in police custody in Marx's East German embodiment, and slaving for WT , for the benefit of that "elite" so: getting wise to their ways, Walstrom.

In Marxist theory, a Capitalist Society pits an Elite against Have-nots. Those with power, wealth and privilege exploit poor, disenfranchised underclasses struggling to keep their head above water.
There is different elites. Take the Elite of the left, the Merkels in Europe, they have the agenda to destroy the pesky aboriginals by importing hordes of strangers of an even lower caste, 80% of which do not come to work.
Take the entrenched Government elite in North America, they too like to broaden their base by importing more of the exploitable.
The Rich elites, that is something else. Some of the Nouveau Riches, the Gates, Bezos., Musks disprove Marx, they do great things, regardless.
WT theology? They want to keep the slave system going, Onesimus et al.
Even in paradise wt minions think they are going to give "assignments" to the slaves.
now you have to slave disown yourself to survive Armageddon,
then for a thousand years they want us to slave to get perfection. Marx would max out.

The emotional environment among hormone laden teenagers, resentment between in and out cliques, all play a part, and absolute rejection, frustration will led to an absolute response.
Humans should be spaced apart, only one or two to a km^2
Wait until we have ~ 100 billion perfect bodies, teenager-like, after the end of the millennium, when they come out of the four corners of the ring for the final boxing match. guns blazing.

the covenant was not it effect until jesus died
ok, so would the partaking of the apostles have less of an effect at the last supper, than after, in subsequent celebrations ? (in the first passover after Pentecost, Peter was in prison, was freed, and there was no "Memorial" going on when he met up with the rest of them. bsw).
No direct effect of Jesus' ransom death has ever been scientifically detected. Even wt concedes that newer aspirants to the 144 000 *might be even less perfect mentally than average, now that they imbibe of the symbols that are supposed to bring perfection. * on topic
not sure what the SDA does ...
neither am I, but since they and Mormons eschew alcohol,? At the marriage miracle, Jesus' wine was potentially pretty potent. ( The attendants did not want the guest getting any more drunk. [DWI laws in effect already for Charioteers then]?)
so you are a theist but believe the bible is nonsense , what's that ? Paganism ?
No, not Theist, but a Deist, as in Deism, belief in a creator (the universe did not make itself), but the creator does not fiddle with it since it's beginning, like performing rib removal and cloning, flooding it, confusing languages, changing the rotation of the Earth, sending beings to Earth to be killed, to satisfy a killer instinct.--- Thomas Paine , Age of Reason. ca. 18 00 CE, one of it's exponents. google it please.

i did read about that , the nazis did in fact behead some , not sure they were claiming GC or LF, my point is that it appears to me that you have to preach-- Jesus.
Nu-lyte: 1650+ Jws died in the camps, persecution, some more perhaps because they refused war work on the front. true martyrs. but by comparison, the German army executed 20 000+ of their own for refusing combat, desertion.

how to remember him in his covenant , he told them to expect it , first one was a dry run , they had to keep doing it until they were martyred to qualify , it replaced the Passover . If you don't believe fine by me but we are discussing the belief , you atheists enter these threads and don't even want to discuss it usually ... no point in continuing
Nu-Lyte: that is clever and funny, the last supper was a dry-run. may be like the SDAs that use grape juice? seriously, I am not an Atheist, but a Deist, willing to discuss any aspect of the bible stories , objectively.
Talking of the 144k and covenants. The cup was the NEW COVENANT, wt makes a quick sleigh of hand to make it the KINGDOM COVENANT.
All should be in the New covenant (forgiving Adams sins), and partake, John 6.
then, you can sacrifice everlasting life on Earth to gain the upward calling. Jesus sacrifices, as the second Adam, his right to everlasting life too remember?

Like wise, with respect, they have addressed it every day since their inception. I have no idea what “billions” of partakers you could mean. The sum total of all witness to ever live isnt a billion let alone the comparative few have partaken. The org teaches nobody outside is saved so you cant mean all other nominal christians who partake.
of course wt does not want to acknowledge that the billions of "Christians", (currently 2.3 billions) even exist, spiritually speaking. To wt there were only 80 partakers anointed per year since 033 AD. whereas in reality there were billions. According to that bizarre wt view point, these billions of drinkers of wine and eaters of wafers will be in paradise. I do believe that wt teaches that all pre 1914 church members will be resurrected, the unrighteous Jesus spoke about. Wt has not sunk that low, to teach that nobody except the 80 per year will be saved.imho.

This is the only religion I know of that actually acts out the last supper in the fashion of the first church .
many interesting points you have, but the above one is wrong, because when Jesus passed the emblems, none of his disciples were anointed. Even he expressed himself as one with an Earthly hope, "sitting on tables, drinking wine himself in the kingdom, ruling Israel". So to follow Jesus, all should partake. who knows they might be anointed later. or worse, the anointed should not partake, because the only anointed at the last supper, Jesus, did not.
The big problem, and you will come to that, perhaps, is, that it is all stories. There never was a talking snake,or donkeys, An Ark floating above Everest, Millions trekking in the desert for 40 years. Jonah eaten by a fish, the Earth standing still or even rotating backward, people walking on water, people coming out of the graves and invading Jerusalem.
These are stories on the credibility level of Little Red Riding Hood and the big bad Wolf. badly written bible babbel.
don't take it too seriously for too long.
If there is a communion tradition, fine, let the anointed serve and the OS eat and drink.
P.S. sorry you mentioned the Early Church, and I described the original last Supper, , already a difference had developed. -

There is the rub for wt, although they deny there was an Earthly Calling before 1914-18, WT theology implies, that, with perhaps 134 000 sealed/dead before 1914, the m/billions of previous partakers, if they did not commit the "sin against the holy spirit", must be resurrected on Earth.

False, they do not deny an earthly hope prior to 1918. They believe anyone faithful from abel until jesus death had an earthly hope.
With due respect, Wt to my knowledge has never publicly addressed the issue what happens to the billions that took the bread and the wine, but forgot that they should have stopped at 144 000. The above paragraph was limited in scope to the wt delusion, "bible written only for partakers", covering the period of communion sharing, not the whole human history. Neanderthals and all.
MBillions in paradise will be past partakers! If the wt hope, based on the talking snake has merit.

In JW theology, "Other sheep" do not exist apart from the "Great Crowd" in the Christian Era
You might be right, the two terms define sub-groups of the "Earthly Class". The great crowd are only mentioned in Revelation aka "the Lord's day". There really is no Great Crowd before Armageddon*, because they come out of the great tribulation, and that has not happened yet.
There is the rub for wt, although they deny there was an Earthly Calling before 1914-18, WT theology implies, that, with perhaps 134 000 sealed/dead before 1914, the m/billions of previous partakers, if they did not commit the "sin against the holy spirit", must be resurrected on Earth.OS, whether they, or wt likes it, or not. There will be millions of partakers in paradise!
All earthly-bound humans, aka the 12 Tribes of Israel, are of the non-anointed Sheep, or wt's Other Sheep.
the real OS are Cornelius and later gentile anointed. bsw.
