If I may toot my own shofar, a few of the posts I like best:
Back in the day, I held a certain pride that the JW bible was indeed a more accurate, back-to-the-original translation than the well-known translations of other sects. I read quotes from "scholars" who praised the JWs' New World Translation as being the most true to the original texts.
Of course, who was providing me these claims and quotes? The JWs. Where was my BS detector, which should have been demanding unbiased verification of those claims? It was in indefinite sleep mode, having been trained by religion to lie down and hibernate.
Re the 72 virgins: I don't know any more about the teaching than that number 72. Maybe there's a wink-nudge implication that in heaven the gals act far differently from the chaste ladies back home in Saudi Arabia or wherever? Hubba hubba.
