EnhancedSpirit said:I personally think the JW are some of the most dedicated of the Christians. Even though they believe that only 144,000 are going to Heaven. It is a sin to celebrate birthdays, or have a beer, they still go door to door, literally, on foot, door-to-door, spreading the word of God. Now that is dedication to a cause.
Sorry about the insult. i get annoyed at people claiming this and that and say stuff that they heard about witnesses etc...
anyhoo, that's a good observation, we are didicated. worldwide, we spent over a billion hours last year speaking to people about the bible. with regards to the beer thing, where did you hear that from? someone said to me that we don't eat cookies, don't drink tea and coffe, don't take headache tablets, don't drink coke, don't go to the doctors, don't believe in Jesus, said we're dangerous, get paid for what we do, etc...we can drink alcohol, it's getting drunk that's the bad bit. I drink regularly (Not get, drunk regularly, before anyone starts). My favorite is Kronenberg or Stella Artois if i fancy it!
and in a nutshell, 144000 go to heaven and rule from heaven over the earth (let thy kingdom come etc...), the rest live on earth being ruled by the 144000 and Jesus after armageddon. i can't bothered writting more on the subject. there's too much... if you want to know more about what we believe, read our publications and compare what we say to the scriptures. and pleeeeeese, don't say you heard stuff about us and make it look like were nutters sitting in dark rooms playing guitar and eating mayonaise!
thanks for the interest tho.
