The Jehovah would say "We have a good god, he would create no *censored*, therefore, people do not go to *censored* they are merely not among the 254.000 resurrected to live along side Jesus his side."
There are several things wrong with both views:
1. Why would god want his creation to suffer if souls take up no room (They have no matter?) and heaven is a creation by 'God'?
2. Why 254.000 people? What if all these seats have now been reserved with the billions of people that live on earth?
3. Why could someone as powerful as 'God' now simply destroy *censored* and instill 'goodness' into everyone's hearts? Why does he rely on his own creation to do his work for him and say that they will go to *censored* if they do not? Did he create *censored*? He must have created Satan or any other evil deity if he is the 'only' true god.
The Jehovah's Witnesses are the ones who have taken the passage in Revelation that mentions 144,000 in heaven and argue that heaven does not have room for any more. I agree, Raptor, that the Jehovah's Witnesses are wrong on this point. However, i consider theirs a non-Christian cult. I've spent hours speaking with some members of their religion who were friendly, and sincere, but sincerely wrong.
Revelation does not say that the group of 144,000 is the *only* group allowed in heaven. It is also likely that the number is symbolic. In ancient Jewish thinking, for example, 12 is a number representing completeness. Hence, there were 12 tribes making up the Jewish nation, Jesus chose 12 disciples, Revelation mentions 12 rulers in heaven, and 12 x 12 x 1,000 = 144,000.
As for *censored*, it seems to me that God doesn't send people to *censored* (whatever *censored* is), they send themselves there by rejecting the only way to heaven, which is trusting Christ. This is probably why Jesus spent more time talking about the horrors of *censored* than the joys of heaven.
Please keep in mind that this discussion topic is not one that i started. I'm not trying to force my beliefs on anyone. I was fascinated by M_2's belief that nothing exists that does not have DNA, and was hoping to hear more.
In addition, i do believe that i have an obligation to answer any questions others ask, as Peter wrote in 1 Peter, chapter 3. Besides, i kind of like you guys and would enjoy spending time with you in heaven!
