I'm really not in the mood to type out in detail what happened - maybe I will edit more in later, but basically, I was stopped by a Jehovah's witness while walking to a class on my college campus. I believed it was a Christian at first so I stopped. He actually would only say, "I'm a Christian." When he started talking about some very different doctrine, I asked again what religion he was apart of and he said "Christian" again. I then said what denomination and he finally said Jehovah's witness. I had already known a little about the religion so I was able to question him well. For instance, he would have never told me the "you won't be able to go to heaven" part unless I asked. Anyways, here is what I derived:
-EVERY single human goes to hell.
-Only the "best" humans(I think somewhere between 100,000-700,000) go to heaven.
-The Earth will be purged of its evil and we will live here forever.

I asked him what is the point of living a "moral life" if we all go to hell(Sheol) anyways. He could not tell me why, instead he pulled out a Jehovah witness Bible and "proved" to me that we all are going to hell. I asked him why I am going to be right next to Hitler and Stalin in hell, when I have not killed anyone, and he just showed me another passage about how we are all going to "hell". I told him before I met him I tried to live a "moral life" but now that I know I'm going to hell anyways I'm going to do what I want. He felt really bad. The End.

Did you ever wonder if morality is simply a cage mechanism and the people who live their lives, accept themselves and understand people as just animals in a machine called the universe, are really the ones who receive heaven. really, only these fags that create little mental prisons go to hell. I find it very interesting that there are about only 144,000 people who seem to be really enlightened on this planet, and in the Bible, it mentions that only 144,000 people will be saved. Jesus was on drugs, fornicated with men and who knows what, damned the first testament, and basically wanted a big free love fest. He doesn't sound like the modern day Christians to me. Burn in hell you bastards.
Even in the story of the Garden of Eden, God only tells them to not touch the fruit of knowledge. Adam probably fucked all the animals and had wild monkey anal sex with Eve. God didn't give a fuck until they created ideals, and then they got the boot. Satan tried to put restrictions on humanity, and when Adam and Eve showed this same trait, they lost everything. So lets all fuck each other and be merry.

Even in Islam, a martyr is rewarded with virgins. God is a sex loving pig. I guess he literally made me in his image.

Sheol means dirt. You go there, with Stalin, because you are made out of flesh. In English hell is a categorical term for either

Gehenna - for God's adversaries.

Sheol - The Earth, Dirt, the Grave- for all mortal things.

I would hit that Bible-thumper with a quote from one of my favorite "holy books"--A Course in Miracles--thusly:

"You do not need help to enter heaven, for you have never left."

its funny. J-witnesses and Mormon's insist they are Christian, and yet Christians want nothing to do with them.

I hate saying 'I'm a Christian" and knowing the whoever I just told is thinking of the guy that interrupted his morning coffee last Sunday.
