A few months ago "undercover" had a post asking about bars in paradise.
I wonder about sex in paradise.
Matthew 22:30 says "At the resurrection people will neither marry nor be given in marriage; they will be like the angels in heaven."
So if there is no marriage in paradise and sex outside marriage is a sin then what??????
And the other thing. I everyone is like an angel in heaven then how can the pictures portraying paradise that the WTBTS prints be accurate?
Sorry about the blank post above. Always troubles with the IE compatability thing.

How would you respond to this JW apologist II - THE SEQUEL
by Black Man inas you know, i'm embroiled in a family and internet debate/dialogue w/jws the last few days.
and you all have been helping get great points in.
the text that i'm about to post come from a jw apologist who has acknowledge some of my comments about jws being a cult and that no tolerance for questioning them is one of the signs of a cult.

The desire or need to question things has more to do with personality traits than with the actual subject.
Some people naturally question everything and drawing them into a cult is near impossible. The same type of person born into a cult eventually leaves.
Some people only question their own judgement and rely on other people to interpret the world around them. They are drawn to cults or if born into one they are quite content to stay.
Each of these actually needs the other but they can rarely maintain a close intimate relationship.

based on certain families who i've known personally in the "truth", there was infidelity which resulted in children out of wedlock, drug abuse, abortion (involving an elder's teenager), verbal, emotional, & physical abuse (by parents and spouses), and dependence on public assistance.

There dysfunctional families in every facet of society.
I think the question should be "Is the dysfunction in dysfunctional JW families caused by the WTBS?"

Do You Blame Your Current Life's Issues Because You Were A JW?
by minimus indo you tend to blame your problems on the fact that you were a jehovah's witness?.
-
beenthere26yr
I was never a JW. I married a wonderful girl who started into the cult 5 years into our marriage.
Now divorced after 31+ years I blame the WTBS for a big share of our problems.
No not everything. I surely have my faults and so does she besides being a JW.
People say you are where you are because of your own choices.
Well my choices when it came the the JW's would be compareable to driving a VW Beetle and having the choice of having a 80 mph head on collision whith a 80,000 lb 18 wheeler or driving off a 1000 ft cliff.

Dr. House says "Everybody lies".
That might be the only "real truth".

Transhuman,
I think you're right about Paul. I think he was the WTBTS of the time with all his publishing.
