Can bible really be interpreted as if there is no torment but you cease to exist

I kind of believe that that's what God would do as a punishment and it makes sense. I mean He doesnt have to torment someone for eternity.

Now, my question To those who believe in hell same as Jehovah's Witnesses that is that you cease to exist, how does eternally tormented mean cessation of existence?

And to those who believe in eternal torment: Why would God do something like that?

Also, are Jehovah's witnesses honest with them selves in their interpretation? I suppose they really believe in it because they would not refuse blood transfusion that can otherwise save their lives at times if they where not sinciere!

Thoughts

Thanks

The bible can be read any way people want o read it.
Its that ambiguous.



You can fix ignorance, you can't fix stupid.
