    I really would like to help you out on this one, but, If I did I would have to increase my service report time.

    If I do that, they may give me a microphone to carry at the meetings. I know I'm being selfish.

    Sorry.

    The Revelation Climax book has a convoluted account of this event being in the future and yet happening figuratively in 1919. This is odd and I grilled my study conductor on it. I wondered how the WT got a simple account of 144,000 people being present together and turn it in to some being dead and there, others being alive there and yet others not being born yet but somehow there figuratively. I wanted to know why they would have that figurative roundup and what purpose it had and why the Revelation account didn't explain it that way.

    It all seems so nonsensical.
