They would probably think they were being persecuted by Satan and they would use it as a further sign that we are in the 'Last Days'.

Try thinking for yourself, make your own choices, make your own reasonings, try reading the Bible without a Watchtower aid or even try reading a different translation of the Bible and compare the two. Don't be afraid to disagree with the Elders or any JW even. If there is a God and he did give you the power of choice & freedom then USE it and don't just gullably swallow everything the Watchtower Society tells you.

Why Paradise Would Drive JWs Insane
by metatron inwhat would qualify as the most paradise-like spot on earth?
i'd say somewhere in the pacific islands.. tropical breezes, lying in the warm sun on beautiful beaches ..... and so on.. but funny isn't it that these places often have high rates of suicide!?.

The thing is, you simply don't know how you would react if you we suddenly placed in a paradise world free from corrupt goverments and supposed 'bad' people as the JW's perceive it. Obviously it would be something totally new to them, they would not have experienced this before, this would be completely new surroundings, new situation, new laws, new people etc. So how can you say they would react to this new environment by saying they would go insane?
Sorry, i disagree with you.

How many Witnesses actually have outside interests or a hobby or read books or even think?!
Good point, but i think this is because the WT makes their own members so busy with preaching, studying & meetings that any outside interests become clouded out.
But funny isn't it that these places often have high rates of suicide!?
If this is so, this might be due to political, economic & social problems the country & people sufffer from, not necessarily any issues to do with geographical location.

WHATS ALL THIS ABOUT 1935 and the ANOINTED??
by chuckyy inhi......just wondering if i have missed some "new light.
" is it now a case of the org saying that 1935 is no longer the date of the 144000 places in heaven being filled???
have i missed something??.

It was in the May 1st watchtower questions from readers section.
What they actually said was that the gathering of the 144,000
anointed, previously believed to have ended in 1935 apart from
replacements for those who fall away, is in fact still taking place,
and the org doesn't know how long this gathering will go on for.Dedpoet,
you don't happen to have a scanned copy of that WT do you that you can post per chance? I'm trying to build up a WT library of embarrasing cock ups & continuous changes in beliefs and this one would make a nice addition.
