Hi there. Wooow, you look just like the mean sob I assumed you`d be. Oh no, I was mistaken, you`re Satan, aren`t you?
And then the real God would show up and bring me to heaven, and he`d say: Hi there, welcome. Your room is thru that hall, on the left at the end of the corridor. There`s a minibar, cookies, an eternal pot of hot, colombian coffee, and free cable (yes, porn too). Enjoy!
IMO it's not without value to consider the full implications of decisions we make. Too often people do things today and disregard the consequences of tomorrow. However, I considered the possible consequences before I decided to leave the JWs. That's why I said
"I'm glad to have left the JWs in order to lead a happy life; I'm even more happy not to be spending eternity with JWs."
That's how I felt then and it's still how I feel today. I honestly do not believe in Armageddon and none of us can even prove there is a god.......let alone that he is accurately described in the bible and that the bible is accurately interpreted by JWs.
However, in case the JWs are right.......then I STILL don't want to be around them for an hour, let alone a torturous eternity listening to their self-serving, egotistical, racist, misogynistic drivel, void of any intellectual content.....being a female second class citizen and forced to obey a bunch of control freaks....plus don't forget, there is no sex/marriage in the New System. I'd rather be dead.

Im kinda rusty, but I never heard that one! Really????????
Can I have sex with brad pit before you kill us both?
plus don't forget, there is no sex/marriage in the New System
I havent heard that on either. Could someone show me in the BIBLE where it says that?

No marriage thus no sex for 99% of people (the resurrected ones)
Yes I remember that teaching, and that pissed me off.
I don't remember exactly what scripture, but it goes like this: and they will be like angels, not marrying or given in marriage...something like that.
I honestly do not think that JWS teach that. I am not aware of it. If I am mistaken, please show me in an article where it says that.
Read Matthew 22:30 in the NWT and then research the WT publications. That is where the JWs get the 'no marriage/sex in the resurrection' thing.

Defd, they have taught it orally for years. Daniel Sydlik announced it at a District Convention in Tennessee in the late 1990's while he was talking about Jeremiah.

When “this system of things” is brought to an end at Armageddon, then persons can no longer be children of it. Consequently, those who were once children of this system of things but who died cannot be children of it if they come up in a resurrection. Only by a resurrection can any of the dead enter into the new world, “that system of things.” Having been counted worthy of a resurrection from the dead they will neither marry nor be given in marriage, as Jesus said. In this respect they will be like the angels, who do not marry and procreate their kind.—Matt. 22:30; Mark 12:25.
*** Rbi8 Mark 12:25 ***
25 For when they rise from the dead, neither do men marry nor are women given in marriage, but are as angels in the heavens.
I know a lot of JWs are very upset when they lose a spouse, and think they can never be together again in the New system. I always thought they would change it with "new light" . This is obviously a heavenly resurection, well its obvious to me !!!
