Oy. Either you were misinformed or misunderstood our beliefs on Heaven. We Jehovah's Witnesses do believe that a total 144,000 humans will be in heaven and that some of them already are. No we do not believe that non-Witnesses will not be in heaven. That is Jehovah's business not ours. I know that 144,000 is a rather small number considering the millions of people who are/were alive over the roughly 6,000 years of human history. This is a problem for many who see this number as excluding them from any sort of a future prospect. We Jehovah's Witnesses do not feel that ONLY 144,000 will be given everlasting life. We feel, based on the Bible's teachings, that most of those who wish to serve Jehovah have the prospect of living forever on Earth in a paradise. Just because Adam and Eve screwed up does not mean that Jehovah would just scrap his plans. We are still intended to live forever on Earth.

Believe it or not, I do not worship God so I can get into heaven. Amazing huh? If He resurrects me, that would be fantastic, but if He does not, at least I have loved Him with my whole heart. He really is nice to have in your life irregardless of what comes in the next life.

I wasn't really planning on going anyway. Who the hell wants to listen to Pat Boone music all day long? And hanging around with all the dead christians? Constantine, Charlamagne, St. Augustine, Hitler, Pat Robertson? No thanks.

No more room in heaven? Good. Then it's time for me to squash this stupid pink snail with yellow spots that keeps saying, "Meow, meow!"

And I will give you a copy of "the God Delusion" for Christmas.
That seems fitting.

Why?
We all have equal rights don't we?
No one has a copy right on Heaven.
