Oh yes, indeed, I stopped smoking 33 years ago while "studying" with a JW. Hadn't I done that, I might be dead by now. Side effect but anyway, Thanks WTS, I enjoy every day of life, even though you're not central anymore in my concerns...

Being a Witness makes you feel "special". That's good, isn't it?
Why yes it is! And they have very special "short buses" for all you special people :)

It can help JWs keep away from cigarettes, drugs, excess alcohol and sexual promiscuity which could lead to sexually transmitted diseases. And from what I had noticed back in the 1980's JW marriages were more stable. They had on average better control over their instinctive desires and more orderly lives. This may not have been the case everywhere.
Of course these in the WTS come at a great cost. And they are also common among those really practicing mainstream christianity.

Perhaps on some other planet, but certainly not on planet earth.

Well, unless you are comparing the witless lifestyle with an even worse cult or living in a monastery, nothing. Just about everything the witlesses do right is done right by some in the world, too.
