    Remember, if you see this in the Watchtower, or hear it in a talk, you heard it here first

    Evidently, since we are so close to end of this system of things, God has seen it fitting to fill the final spots held open for the 144,000.

    There. Simple, elegant, and doesn't require an overhaul of the 144,000 JW belief.

    Until the number climbs over 100,000 anyway....

    True. That would call for some new light. Or a series of study articles pressuring people not to partake because they're probably not really annointed

    Get out!

    The Society would never presume to tell other people whether they are anointed or not!

    Where do people get these crazy ideas....

    Since there are 105,298 congregations worldwide, according to 2010 Service Report, that would require only 1.4 person in each congregation to see that as an invitation and to fill that opening.

    I think they will stick with "Our invitation campaigns are working. So many come to the memorial and partake because they don't know any better. Keep helping them with home Bible studies and recruit them so they know better."

    Didn't they directly say that the 144,000 was already filled by 1935, when they started the Great Crowd teaching?

    Watch out - Pirata! With that kind of brilliance you might get "drafted" to the GB.

    James, James, James. You're not keeping up with Noo Lite, my friend.

    They reopened heaven a few years ago. Now it looks like a realtor's open house on a Sunday afternoon...
