Who decides those who rule in heaven and those who stay on paradise earth? What qualifications do these people have over anyone else to rule in heaven?
What's there to rule?
Fish, dinosaurs, other stuff

Are you a Jehovah's Witness?
Heh I've heard this mentioned by Christians before, supposedly it is:
the 144k are 12k from each Israel tribe

The 144000 Lol, I never understood that... Personally, I had been trying to understand Revelations but seem to be unable to put my finger on it.
