I love how jesus apparently doesn't know that a full beard looks like shit, can fly like superman, and has access to star trek like transporter tech.

It's mostly right, but there are a few things wrong at the end.
I hadn't seen this before, though. Nifty. Love the sci fi sound when Jesus comes back.

Is this made by the same people who did the "banned Mormon cartoon"? It looks like the same production.

In the flying sequence, it's funny how Jesus only gets wings when he is in outer space, at which point they would be completely useless to fly with.

It's possible, but you'd be surprised just how crappy and cookie-cutter animation in general can be if you have people who don't care. In fact, the animation in question is vaguely reminiscent of some of the lower-budget 1970s Johnny Quest episodes. |

***THIS IS WHAT JEHOVAH'S WITNESSES ACTUALLY BELIEVE***
They needed that caption on the video.
P.S.
That video had the production quality of an old Hannah-Barbera cartoon....

Jesus/michael would have made a great comic book villian.
"Yes, kill them all!"

The thing I don't get is that if everyone, and I do mean everyone, dies except for 144,000 Jehovah's Witnesses who go to heaven. Then why are there over seven million Jehovah's Witnesses worldwide according to their last 2007 survey?
So out of seven million of them only 144,000 will be picked?, sounds more like a lottery than a religion...

That was laughably awful.

I can't remember where I heard it, but somewhere I heard that Heaven was declared full back in 1935. So what happens, "we're sorry Joe, but someone more devote than you just died, you've been bumped". Well at least they're not damning me to hell, just nonexistence. |

Jesus is so deep. Did you see him pondering at 1:11?

That's one of the things the video got wrong. First, the 144,000 aren't exclusively Witnesses. But, Heaven isn't full there are still members of the 144,000 on earth, according to their belief, and the end time will begin when most of them are in heaven. The other part the video got wrong, is that only Witnesses will survive Armageddon. Witnesses think they have a better chance of surviving, because they'll know what's going on when it starts happening, but people of all kinds will survive, leaving it the Witnesses job to explain what happened, and get people accustomed. As to only 144,000 going to heaven, their belief is that 144,000 faithful servants of God go to heaven to rule. The rest of the faithful, and those that God has judged accordingly will be resurrected (or just survive into) a restored paradise earth. A new Garden of Eden, basically. On this restored earth, humanity will return to what it was at it's start, perfect. Sin, death and disease will vanish. |

The 144,000 are chosen before their birth. I don't remember if he believed heaven was full. But I do remember the whole new earth/eden. I don't understand the people who are seemingly 100% rational until the topic of religion comes up.  |
