    no sex............

    no cars.........

    no other life in the universe...........

    no electricity, airconditioning, computers, internet, videogames,

    I'd add:

    No phone, no lights no motor cars,
    Not a single luxury,
    Like Robinson Crusoe,
    As primitive as can be.

    i'm with serotonin on this one......;who the heck would possibly want to live forever with ONLY jehovah's witnesses.

    we would have all the time in the world to do everything and travel....and see what?? no more eiffel tower, no more egyptian pyramids, no more statue of liberty, no more sidney opera house,....

    forests, desert, sea and mountain. while that's really nice i'd like to see some man made things. and since it's not exactly like it's doctors, engineers, architects and artists making up the organization...;how the hell would we even get there?? on foot?

    if they only took enough time to think about it they would realize they really want to start living now. What a shame of a waste of life! i feel angry and sorry for my friennds who are still in giving the best years of their lives away to a FALSE ORGANIZATION!

    My thought exactly. Everything for most of them at the present time is......."work hard for the organization now and enjoy everything else in the new system. Unfortunately, the general response to thinking about how paradise would be is..."wait on Jehovah to reveal things in due time", therefore eliminating any possible pondering about the "righteous new system".

    I didn't like the fact that after everything was all nice and perfect and everyone was happy, Satan is supposed to be let loose again. Everyone would be tested and judged (again). Didn't everyone go through enough to survive Armegeddon the first time? So much for an abundance of peace!

    That is an interesting question.

    I, for one, will have to admit, though, that the idea of paradise appealed greatly to me. I love viewing mountains, animals, sunsets, riding horses, weeding, etc.

    I loved the idea that there would be no sickness or death.

    I didn't even care if there was no indoor plumbing

    I did kinda think I would miss seeing babies, though.........when the earth was eventually full.

    Oh, well.

    i think that everyones vision of paradise is different.for some folks,it is boring hairstyles and dull unimaginative clothing.and lots of studying and rules..aint my idea of perfect living.nope,not at all...i was afraid that id be stuck w/all of those horrid grinning litso's in the pictures,and even as a chils,knew,that my destiny was elsewhere,somewhere better.somewhere w/velvet and satin,and fine wines and great music.and wild crazy hair..and satan,of course.

    And the 1,000 years of remaining strong without being perfect

    Ditto! And to make things even worse, you could still be killed by Jehovah AFTER you've achieved perfection!
