I've never understood something about Jehovah's Witnesses.

If they think there are only going to be 144,000 people in heaven, why
are they still recruiting?

As I understand it, they no longer have that doctrine.

Looks like they haven't completely dropped the number. From their
website. http://www.watchtower.org/e/200608b/article_01.htm

"A few humans have the hope of being resurrected to life in heaven.
Their number is small—144,000 in all. However, these 144,000 are quite
distinct from those creatures commonly called angels."

A Google of their website shows 310 references for 144,000
