To minister is to serve and help those who need it. To be a minister is to be the one who serves and helps others. IMO of course. There is also the clergy aspect. Many people can and will be close minded and ignorant, Many of them on the religious front will call themselves christian. Many will think this makes them righteous and/or authoritative. Ignore them and accept them. Try to teach them if you want but be prepared to bang your head against the wall. Christianity despite popular belief does not hold the monopoly on religion or spirituality. Also remind yourself of the many good christians there are. It helps.

Depends on the situation. To protect, defend, and also survival. If the situation warrants it of course.

Please say a prayer/blessing for my recently departed grandmother Hilda.

Rob Halford is the lead singer for Judas Priest. Heard about this on the radio. I sent some thoughts freddies way. Queen is definitely an epic band that I will sadly never be able to see.

What do you mean by upload them? What do you mean by hidden to the public?

No as that is not how they "work." I've been playing around with pendulums since I was a kid. I will make no specific claims of fact about them except that they do seem to work. It could however just be subconscious muscle movements that make it work. If you take a pendulum and hold it over a males hand or body it tends to swing one way. If you then put it over a female hand or body it will swing another way. There used to be a custom of holding one over a pregnant woman to see what sex the child will be. You are supposed to after having acquired one sit there and think "what is yes" and "what is No." It will swing in certain ways depending. You can then ask questions and observe the way it swings as either being yes or no. The feather really does not affect this at all. That one worked fairly nice. Honestly it's just something I've done on and off since I was a child and had read about it. Its fun and an interesting thing to fiddle with. I have had some quite accurate results with it. I once asked jokingly if my current girlfriend had cheated on me. It had swung a yes for me and continued to do so during multiple tries. I of course did not take that as anything but strange. It did turn out she had. I don't generally sell what I've made for myself over the years. I have given away some things.
