  Jehovah's Witnesses and tolerance, let's just think about that for a minute. As far as JWs are concerned the ideal society will exist when there are no more;

  Atheists

  Muslims

  Religious Jews

  Orthodox Christians

  Catholics

  Hindus

  Jain's

  (Basically, any religion other than theirs)

  Gay men

  Gay women

  Transgender people

  Smokers, users of the weed or other stimulants

  Unwed parents

  Folks who practice yoga or transcendental meditation

  Well you get the idea. If their version of paradise is that people of all races will live together in harmony that is a form of tolerance that is literally skin deep.

  You forgot to include men that wear tight pants and/or colored socks and women that wear Spanx.

  That's why I say that while talking to a JW can be a very pleasant experience, they're very nice to talk to, but to get to the core of what they believe is going to happen to those "of the world," is to find something truly horrific.

  JW beliefs and Human Rights can't coexist, they're simply incompatible. JWs can be nice to the face of a Homosexual, all the while tacitly believing they'll pay for their sin. It's insane to know that I once thought this way.

  A long list nicolaou. One group conspicuously missing though that must be added: Apostates.

  Hell; I'd even include Shriners, Girl Guides, and soup kitchen volunteers on that list.

  How the hell did I miss that! Yep, no Apostates, heretics or freethinkers in paradise. Just leave your rational mind behind in the smouldering ruins of Armageddon...
