Jehova’s have always seemed like an interesting people to me. Some of the beliefs I just can’t wrap my head around, but all of the followers seem very down to earth and genuine. Looking forward to reading more great resources like this on your blog.

Comment by get a life (Comment ID: 276969)

I was raised in the JW organization. My father has been an elder for over 30 years. Me? Well, it is different from other religions. But, give it a chance. Really think about it. I haven’t been the poster child for JW’s by any means. But, I have served time in jail for something really stupid. Now, my point - who wants to go to heaven? That’s just silly! I am hear now, with so much to live for! Why would I want to die to just go float around some rainbow and be a peaceful spirit? Science and doctors have asked the question, and answered it with their own research - they don’t know why we grow old and die. You may not share all the ideas with the organization -I’m no fanatic… But, can you offer me any better hope?? They seem so happy and satisfied with life - is that so bad? Really?

Happy and satisfied with life?? Haven’t you read how the JW’s suffer from depression more than any other religion? Just because they promise you will live on paradise earth, should you really believe it will come true? If you work in my plantation, be my slave for the rest of your life, I will promise you will be a God in Heaven for millions of years to come. Now, just because I promise you that, will it become true? Well, jw’s promise you life on earth, will that become true? Being a son of an elder you should know that jw’s have promised on many occasion the end was coming. 1914, 1925, 1975, the end of this generation, the end of the millennium and so on. The crap that people fall for is just ludicrous. I wonder if you were in prison for drugs as your brain seems to have been affected, or was that the silly propaganda that was shoved down your throat all those years of being a witness??

It never ceases to amaze me the silly things that people believe and all in the name of God.

I think it is time you stop smoking that crap!
