I believe in an afterlife but I also realize that we live now in the present It's tragic when we live in the past " if I only did this or did that" or the future like the witnesses do " when the new system comes I'll be happy" Both attitudes rob us of enjoying life now each day

How many here desire 'Reality' over the fantasy of eternal life?
by AK - Jeff inme.. wasting time believing in such silliness is like hoping one day to turn into mickey mouse.
why not accept life now, while you have it, and understand that like all others before you, you are going to die too.
you won't wake from that.

ugly women as the most unlikely to find partners
Consider this boys: If we choose an ugly woman she will be so happy that you want her, that she will never leave you and no one will try to take her off you
And as stillan said We all want loyalty from our mates

"When armageddon happens, I want to be able to SEE the people dying"
by jambon1 insaid to myself & others by a jw elder.. i always recall this as a sort of .
when this elder was pressed on the matter, he replied that it was because of all the years of laughing & sneering & mocking that he had put up with, quoting the scripture that goes along the lines of 'where is this promised presence of his'.. i realise now that this person is not loving.
and yet, i would hear similar sentiments from others such as 'just wait until the end' or 'i wonder if they'll be saying that when jesus comes with his big sword'.. even as a jw pioneer, the thought of such a thing happening to people repulsed me.

What helped me come to terms with the threat of Armageddon was If their concept of God is correct . That he is going to destroy billions of people because they never read a f...ing Watchtower then I don't want to know him. I would rather be bird food than accept such a God and mix with heartless Cretans that rejoice over such a prospect

First problem is that the creator of the universe does not LIVE in this universe, soooooo, how does he make contact? So, let's pursue that and see where it takes us.
Happy guy not wanting to ruin a good story but I would like to respectfully suggest you read christian theology on the nature of God (eg. omnipresence and also that God would not be God if he was constained by any boundaries) and not JW thinking and then come back to us

At the risk of being shot down by the skeptics here I will relate one experience. I was driving my truck when I was overcome by grief thinking about the loses I was going through choking back tears so my offsider would not notice when I felt this presence like I was being hugged and a voice not audible and not simply a thought in my head said its OK Bob we can do this. No I was not on drugs and if anything I am very skeptical about Christians telling me that Jesus talks to them and tells them what to do
