What is the defintion of "is harmed or defeated by an opponent"?  Is there any outside of the battle or inside of the battle combos to get around that?

I'm pretty sure the Stalks of Flax switch should work for a bit.  Switch and use Job yourself and let the owner of the card kill him.  That will stall for at least 4 turns. 
    1.  Switch for him.
    2.  Use him the second turn you have him.
    3.  They pull him out and keep him in dust and ashes for one turn
    4.  They get him back.

Or put Tribal Elder in your deck and use him too.

Stalks is an effect caused by a card not of the same alignment. So it would be harm. If Stalks was a covenant, it would not be harm.

nice.  Thanks.  I would assume that everyone use'n a Job deck though would have in WoP, right?  Anyway to band to him by getting around WoP and still not be'n negative, without a big combo of course.

Nope.

Don't you all try messing with my Job, he's my homeboy. 

Placing an Evil card on him would Harm him.
