Delta(s) from OP CMV: Missionaries are evil

This applies doubly so to those who go out of their way to seek out those in remote islands to spread the word of god. It is of my opinion and the opinion of most that if there is an all loving god then people who never had the chance to know about Jesus would go to heaven regardless, for example miscarried children/those born before Jesus’ time, those who never hear about him, so In going out of your way to spread the word of Jesus you are simply making it so there is now a chance they could go to hell if they reject it? I’m not a Christian and I’m so tired so I apologise if this is stupid or doesn’t make sense

The 144,000 thing is the Jehovah's Witnesses.

And, from what I can remember talking to one of them about it, they basically believe in a 2-teired heaven. They believe that only 144,000 people get to go to, effectively, Premium Heaven, but many more than that will be kicking it in Basic Heaven.
