Thd original question was regarding this:
atomant3 days ago
"And there will be NO MORE death or sorrow or crying or pain. For the old world and its evils are gone forever." Rev. 21:3-4.l find this very hard to believe.
Lana's best effort to defend what is actually impossible to believe is this:lanalonger3 hours ago
I’ve always understood it to mean ‘excessive’ or unnecessary pain.
Riddle me this Lana, if it meant that, why is the scripture not saying that? Scripture says "there will be no more death or sorrow or crying or oain" To defend this impossible to believe statement, Lana adds her own take on it to throw some ambiguity into the mix "there will not be excessive death or sorrow or crying or pain"
So God couldn't inspire Bible writers to catch exactly what he meant? But of course he knew Lanalonger would happen along in 2016 and know precisely what he was on about and enlighten us all.
Seriously though Lovely Lana, narcissistic much. And you never did reveal whether you are counting your time on here, but I really think you'd be better off peddling your WT trash D2D. The sort of low hanging fruit that could be picked off by your bizarre take on things is not to be found in a place like this where education is encouraged. -

Sorrow is defined as deep distress, which is a choice we sometimes make when we hold to an emotion which could pass if we allow it. To not feel the passing of a creature we are fond of would be robotic, to suffer over the inevitable would be unnecessary. I simply believe there will be a middle ground. God is described as being able to be saddened, to feel regret, etc. but he doesn't suffer.
If perfection meant 'no emotional range' it would stand to reason God would have none. I believe it will mean 'psychologically healthy.'
Lana precious, you are at it again with your WT styley pseudo-reasoning techniques. The Bible clearly states that certain negative emotions will simply not be part of the perfect human experience. In Lana's humble opinion, however, the Bible has insufficient weight without her running commentary. Even if said running commentary contradicts the scripture under discussion. I call you precious because you are truly freakin' priceless!

Here’s my take.
...
So we’ll experience the gamut of human feelings, but we’ll have learned to reframe them in emotionally healthy ways, to not ‘attach’ unhealthily and to be able to ‘let go’ when the situation calls for it.
So Lana honeybun, just like your GB buddies, you have now been inspired sufficiently to explain the Bible to the masses have you bubba? Bible says "No more sorrow" Lana counters "we'll experience the gamut of human feelings" blah, blah, blah.
Wow Lana, you were truly taught by the best. To be narcissistic enough to think that a couple of paragraphs from you can override the meaning of language itself!

Lana my little buttered mushroom
If we wanted a Watchtower regurgitated at us, we'd go to a KH to hear a few dozen mindless drones spew the paragraphs into microphones 'in their own words' of course.
As I mentioned before, some education might serve you well, rather than coming here and reciting 7 old men's drivel.
Are you counting your time and RVs here poppet? Read my lips, we're not interested. Put us down as a Do Not Call.

Ya’ll are taking exception to instruction to ‘love one’s neighbor as oneself,’ you get that, right? Everyone at my Hall understood the three categories to mean ‘everyone.’
Lana our precious pumpkin, we are taking exception to the plain fact that Jesus' own explanation of who constitutes a neighbour is not good enough for your magnificent New York 7. They take it upon themselves, as always, to ADD even to the concise words of Christ himself and complicate a simple illustration to squeeze a Watchtower paragraph or two out of it for a bunch of mindless drones to nod along to sagely, you get that, right?

I for one appreciate it, it is so hard to not clap when someone is reinstated. It isn’t a huge deal but shows that the brothers are not inflexible.
- Lana poppet, if you really need the approval of the mighty 7 Gibbering Buddies to let you know when you can do something as innocuous as place your palms together, honey, the Kingdumb Hall is the place for you indupitably. Perhaps you could pop back here when you find a couple of brain cells to rub together and formulate an original thought of your own.

So if murderous robbers were in your house, and you had hidden your young children, you would tell the truth about their location if asked?
No Lana dear, we would of course in that situation LIE you dear, silly, cloth eared wee bint you. But we would not have to redefine our language to make ourselves holier than thou , we would simply LIE to the bad men. Have you grasped the point yet sweet pea?
