I've been away for so long; great to be back!

How time flies; and how much a day means in a world of politics. In Tunisia, Ben Ali announced that he will not be standing for reelection, but the pressure grew unbearable overnight and he fled power the next day. Mubarak tried in Egypt to show that he was the tough guy and to portray protesters as US and western tools; guess what happened a day after his last and desperate show of defiance: he resigned. Gadhafi has hung on so far; doing every thing he can to survive; even spilling "rivers of blood" in Saif Gadhafi's words. How long will this "delusional" ruthless dictator shed his people's blood, how many streams of blood will Gadhafi and his son's shed before they realise power and leadership is given and not taken and confiscated? How many more rambling intervies and speeches doe Gadhafi want to give before he goes? Anyway, he has very limited options for exile because not even other fucking dictators will think it wise to host him; not even Hugo Chavez.

Hey, I learned some policrites wore our dear flag in Douala and carried posters with nonsense like "nous some tous les Tunisiens". Who do they want to deceive? As cunningly intelligent as they are, they would want to use and spill the blood of Cameroonians for the wrong reason:their ulterior motives. By the way, if they are not comfortable with our Cameroon the way it is, they should either effect change (if they can) peacefully or go create their own country. We won't allow them hijack our country! Besides, Biya is not yet 30 in power, when he reaches 30, we'll consider supporting those who think they can incite revolts in Cameroon. For they moment, we'd rather prefer a bad situation ; a worse one is not an option.

I respect ALL churches irrespective of doctrines

Thanks for your post TJ. I am sorry if the way I expressed my views in my last post makes you misinterpret my feelings towards Witnesses. I do not in any way disrespect any church, even if I disagree with its doctrine and neither do Witnesses sound odd to me. The truth is, to me, no one is absolutely certain when it comes to questions of redemption, it is guess work and no church can claim sole ownership of the truth.

That said, I'll rephrase my questions because your answers are not as clear as I'd love: Do you worship Jesus Christ? It appears you don't believe that humans have a soul which goes either to heaven or to hell after a person's death: Do sinners pay for their sins? If they do, is it while alive or after death, and how? During the resurrection as you say sinners will rise, will they be judged? and then what? What will happen to those found righteous, both resurrected and living? Do you believe in some abstract supernatural habitat called "heaven" or "hell"? If I get satisfactory responses to these questions, I promise you won't be getting any further questions from me on this subject matter. Take care TJ, expecting to read from you.

The nature of the world

Thanks TJ, thanks for your post and safe trip wish. I must say I'm so waoed by  how "superstitiously" suspicious Witnesses are of everything. Remember, even the world we live in has a superstitious and violent history, but we're trying to give it an "alternative" meaning; the cloths and shoes we wear may have been produced by slave labour, yet we try to give our use of them an "alternative" essence; if you wear jewelry, their raw material may just be from some of the blood fields in Africa (if you've heard about "blood diamonds"); the greatest invention of recent history, the internet, is used by many for unspeakable immorality, superstitions and evil, yet you're using it for an alternative purpose, even creation is shrouded in superstitions, it just depends on which you choose as "good" or "bad" superstitions...these are the choices the world makes to be convenient for habitation and aspiration...Yet I must say cynical superstitions that Witnesses seem to tag to everything just make me wonder if they would not rather seek another planet that's void of  such "superstitions", "pagan" practices; a "sanctimonious" world. I am a liberal and respects everybody's reasoning or belief. I also believe that the world and everything on it is absurd; we simply give the absurdity a logical commonsense, an alternative essence, reason why the world is habitable. This is my viewpoint about religion and spirituality: I believe in God and his only begotten son and in the trinity (however liberal this belief may be) and do not believe in radical and extremist religious doctrine, spirituality matters more to me ("spirituality" to me may be far from what you consider it to be). That said, I would love that you give me simple answers to the following questions:
1-Who is Jesus Christ and what does he represent to you?
2-Do you allow only some bible verses to interpret themselves to you and then you interpret other verses for the bible?
3-What happens to people after they die (sinners and righteous, if any, alike)?

Many Thanks TJ. Forgive my frankness, yet I have to be. I should be very satisfied with a direct and precise response.
