Just try walking around with your Catholic insignia in the West Bank. You'll be shot as fast as an Arab. The orthodox Jews don't discriminate between Christianity and Islam. They see both as enemies.

Message from Jesus

In all of its splendor, the Earth rejoices and sings praise to its Creator. Give to me all that is mine. All is mine! What you see I created for my greatest creation to live in search for their Creator. I am the one true God in three divine persons: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. The three are one. One God in three distinct persons and completely equal. I have been and will always be. I existed before time, and I will exist long after time ends with my coming.

Here's a question for you: what is the afterlife like for an anti-social introvert?

[HitRed]

God has never used “afterlife” in the messages. He does mention time is finite here on earth.

time ends with my coming. - Jesus

He does use “eternal” when talking about Heaven and Hell.

I have the power to save souls from damnation and eternal misery. Hearts must turn back to me and their eyes back to me, for I am the way and life eternal. - Jesus

God judges hearts. Some people are anti-social introverts. Jesus went into the desert to be alone. He does speak a lot about listening and silence. He is very positive on those.

I come to you in the silence with your heart open to hear my word to you. You listen for my voice like a faithful lamb. Come to rest in me; listen to the sound of my voice, not loud like the world and all of its noise. I speak to those who have ears to listen and to those who seek with earnest hearts.

[Apatheist]

So...what is this eternal life like for an anti-social introvert? What actually happens? Does one exist, in isolation, for eternity (assuming one fulfils all the other requirements)? Is one obliged to reunite with loved ones, or become part of any sort of wider group?

He thinks he’s so smart. Arrogance. - God

God judges hearts. He will not be asking if you are a scientist or how many degrees you have.

[Apatheist]

That wasn't my question, it has nothing to do with education, I'm not sure where you got that from. My question is: assuming one meets whatever criteria there might be for passage into what, for the sake of argument, we might call "heaven" (I'm assuming that some will be denied, due to their hearts or deeds, or whatever), what will that existence be like for an anti-social introvert, and how will it differ (if at all) if one is by inclination a sociable extrovert?

[HitRed]

Asked a question. Heard…

It is not for you to know. - God

Yes, easy cop out, the fall-back of all religions. That is no answer, and you know it. You should change the substances that you're taking if that's all that "they" tell you.

I've seen spirit mediums employ exactly the same diversionary tactic when they get asked a question that they haven't found out the answer to in advance.

“I refuse to answer that question on the grounds that I don't know the answer”

My plan is to put people in your path. - God

* Divine Appointments refer to the orchestrated encounters or events in a believer's life that are arranged by God for a specific purpose. These moments are often pivotal, leading to spiritual growth, ministry opportunities, or the fulfillment of God's will.

[Apatheist]

I've actually thought more about this.
It's the equivalent of me being interested in a product that I might want, going to a website to check it out, and them saying "Our product is great! Please buy it!" without any explanation of what it does or why I should buy it.
That's not how they'll get new customers, and saying "it's not for you to know" is not how you (or god) will get new believers - and I cannot believe that is what a god would want.
I therefore assert that you are not hearing things from any gods, you're making them up to suit yourself, and you should stop deceiving yourself and fooling others.
In fact, your actions appear to be proof that you either are, or are listening to, the other guy.

Message from Jesus

I, the Lord God of Israel, say to you, you have not listened to me; you mock my words. Repent and turn to me, you of disbelief! The truth has been told to you, and you still wonder in your disbelief. I say to you, woe to you! My word lives; therefore, so does the truth. Come to believe before it is too late; my time is at hand. You will live for eternity with your disbelief; this will cause much pain. Turn while there is still time. I have spoken!

Is there a Reader's Digest page for Douglas Adams?

Actually, RD hasn't been published in the UK since 2024.
However, this page will give you all the pithy quotes:
