Aren't there more than 144,000 Jehovah witness's? They believe that only 144,000 people will go to Heaven at the end of the world (literal interpretation of Revelations).

If so, they can't all go to heaven when Armaggeddon comes.

From some posts, people are very defensive, accusing me of spreading hate which is ridiculous. I'm just pointing out ethical contradictions in your religion. And they sprout up because your religion was created before ethics was fully developed by philosophers and thinkers.

Modern ethics include the idea that group punishment is wrong, people should have personal libert, all people should be equal under the law, and that torture is evil (especially eternal torture). All of those ideas are not supported by most of the Hebrew derivied religions.

The way people reconcile this contradiction is cherry pick or spin what they want to hear from their religious texts.

BTW, I think abortion is distasteful on a personal level, though I think it should be an option in the first trimester as it is now.

My OP was more about trying to point out that the idea about Hell/Heaven itself is flawed.
