Flame of the WestThe are a couple of critical difference between JWs and mainstream christians. 1. They don't believe in the Trinity 2. Following point 1, they believe Jesus is a created angelic being rather than God ( this is a major difference )

Not exactly. Jehovah's Witnesses are a result of American religious freedom. Over the last century, a lot of ultra-conservative evangelical Christian groups have popped up all over the country in the wake of various religious revivals. The Jehovah's Witnesses are one of the more well-known sects, probably because of their damn annoying proselytization practices.
I heard that they believe that only 144,000 people would be saved. Of course, there are more JW's than that...
