If You Had A Choice …

[naomi24]

…. of living for eternity on a perfect earth inhabited by Jehovah’s Witnesses (which is what they expect to do) or the oblivion of death which would you choose?

[nailit]

Always wonderd how this New Earth is going to work?
Who is going to clean the sewers etc.
Who is going to clean up sewage?
who is going to provide services?
Will medical care be provided?
Where will food come from?
Will there be butchers?

Imagine starting again on a perfect Earth?


We will be right back where we started from

[Mamyalynne]

Folk will mess it up again pretty soon.

[DTCwordfan]

self-suffocation as the Tower would do it just on their propaganda.

[DTCwordfan]

I just wish that folk on AB remember these words:

'Allah, Jehovah, and Jesus
Reached a decision to leave us
But the one to go first
Would most likely be cursed
What else could they do to please us?'

Well, stay off AB to begin with.

[naomi24]

Nailit, JWs don’t believe people will suffer hellfire. They believe the other lot - us - will end up in the oblivion of death … hence my question.

[Khandro]

naomi: I highly provocative & leading OP from you, why do you do it? Has any Jehovah's witness ever done you harm?

[fcc]

Although i might not agree with their religion,whenever they have come knocking on my door they seem to be happy and content with what they have got ,which is more than can be said of some on here.

[Atheist]

fcc, when I go out knocking on doors at night I also seem happy and contented with what I have got; but strangely, some people think I am drunk, and chase me away.

[fcc]

Well go home and listen to frank zappa,watermelon in easter hay,
all your troubles(if any) will disolve.

[Atheist]

Khandro, I thought Naomi's OP was not at all provocative. What was provocative about her simple question? Only provocative to over-defensive insecure people, which I am sure the JWs are not. Surely they are not snowflakes?

[Atheist]

fcc, I posted Frank's watermelon here some time ago, but it doesn't seem to have calmed many people down.

[Atheist]

Maybe 'The Ocean is the Ultimate Solution'?

[fcc]

Sounds good to me,medicine for the ears.

[Atheist]

'scuse me while I wipe this rancid Budweiser from my beard!

[tomus42]

Oblivion isn't so bad. I coped with it before I was born, and I'll cope with it after I die.

I don't think I'd want to live forever under any circumstances.

[Atheist]

tomus; you only coped with it for 14 billion years. Forever is much more than that. So much more that it cannot logically exist as a perceptible thing.

[tomus42]

I didn't realise it was only 14 billion years atheist. I was..errm..oblivious of that.

[Atheist]

Well, ye ken noo!

[naomi24]

Khandro, consider it a poll on behalf of Goodlife. I just wondered how many here fall into the category of the poor lot he mentions frequently. Are you going to attempt to answer the question or are you going to leave it at criticism?

[mibn2cweus]

Pondering choices that don't exist goes against my religion. I prefer to invest my limited time considering options that count for something, such as how many sheets to tear of the roll when the moment for such decisions arise.
