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 |

G Well, why not, if it comes to that? Is that not a fundamental belief of Christianity in general -- that God came down and issued new rules? I don't have time for bashing others' religious beliefs. If the Jehovah's Witnesses feel compelled to send people around that is fine by me. I don't have to listen to them, but I don't have to abuse them, either. -- Waddling Eagle World Famous Flight Instructor |

They will not honor the US flag. They enjoy freedom of religion that the United States allows for all residents, they will NOT say the pledge or remove their hats, or for that matter sing the national anthem.. Looks like a free ride to me |
