Go To Hell?
In the past two days I have received 4 pieces of mail referencing this Blog Site and tips for future stories. Not that I have never received such said information, I have. However, one of them was quite interesting. "Friends Don't Let Friends Go To Hell."
Heck, if I hadn't received these documents, I may have just been heading directly to Hell and if my anonymous "friend" hadn't sent it to me, I would have been clueless!
The only thing good about going to Hell would be the never ending flames to fire up my big cigars. There are other advantages, I guess? I'd be there with Al Gore and we wouldn't have to worry about Global Warming any more. The freakin Gas & Electric Companies couldn't send us outrageous energy bills any more. There wouldn't be any wait for the oven to heat up. I better stop, this is starting to sound too perfect to me.
Look, if I go to hell, I go to hell. If there's a Heaven and the Good Lord wants me there, that would be way cool too. However, I live my life the way "I" see fit and nothing you send me is going to change who I am.
So my advice to all of you is, please don't waste the postage suggesting how I handle myself and or treat others. AND, if you were a friend, you wouldn't have sent this letter with brochures anonymously. I know who GOD is and I know who the DEVIL is. I don't know who ANONYMOUS is but I do know the intent of God & the Devil!

"So my advise to all of you is, please..."
FYI Joe, you mean "advice," not "advise." Easy mistake, but two different words.
This would not be the same Joe that picks on everyone else for spelling errors is it?
I for one would prefer you not go to hell Joe and I'll leave it at that!
Maybe you should take heed, Joe. With your attitude toward other people, a little religion in your life would do you some good. Maybe you wouldn't be so mean and hateful to everyone.
we will pray for your soul
The Christian mythos has about as much external validity as a Marvel comic book. As a moral guide it can be meaningful, however, to regard the Bible and it's pantheon of supernatural entities and forces as "real" is both childish and absurd.
If your fairytale about your personal, all powerful sky god is meaningful to you, that's great, but at the end of the day you're just a monkey with car keys.
Joe,
I am not being judgemental. I believe with all my heart..... I wish you did too. God have mercy on your soul.

Joe move to Salisbury.It sure ain't Heaven. but the Pearly Gates would would still be there for you.
Anon 7:43 You cut and paste real well now why not breakout of the anon modes and we'll go mono y mono and everyone will see our first and last names!?! Otherwise it's just "childish and absurd".
Well, it is our duty as Christians to try to help you understand that if you do not believe in Christ and except he is your savoir and ALL o our sins are forgiven. With out this belief then yes you will end up in hell.
As far as Marvel comics, well someday you will wake up and remember that line in eternity. I will pray for your soul.
Good luck, and when something happens, and your all alone and a terrible tragedy happens you will look up and pray, you may not admit it but you will.
Problem is you never thanked him for the good things in your life, leave all your belogings behind and spread the good word...

Wow! You want to go monkey to monkey?
anonymous 9:07,
If by chance you're talking to me personally, you have no clue what I do and don't believe in.
I appreciate your intent but I was raised an Italian Catholic from the Bronx. Need I say more?
Other than that, if you can't see the HUMOR in the Post, well, what can I say?
You're preaching to the choir.
"Well, it is our duty as Christians to try to help you understand that if you do not believe in Christ and except he is your savoir and ALL o our sins are forgiven. With out this belief then yes you will end up in hell."
What an amazingly silly conceit. You're like a cargo cultist, living in world of magical realism.
Of course God is real as well as Christ, we base our whole time line on Jesus. He does exist and everyone will give an account on what he or she did in their body. Once in hell there is no turning back. Trust Jesus You don't want to wind up there.
"What an amazingly silly conceit. You're like a cargo cultist, living in world of magical realism."
Hmm, can we say that you are the reason the country is failing. 10% of the country do not believe in God, 90% do. It is the 10% idiots that cause 90% of the problems.
I would love to see your face when you are in a position that it finally comes to you. How amazing it will be. What a goof!
"Hmm, can we say that you are the reason the country is failing. 10% of the country do not believe in God, 90% do. It is the 10% idiots that cause 90% of the problems."
Oh really? How many atheists rob stores, beat women, and wind up in prison crying and blubbering for Jesus to save them? Virtually none. We're most often the doctors, lawyers, scientists, academics, engineers and other professionals. The vast majority of convicted criminals and moral slackers in the US are Christians in terms of their choice of deity.
There are many paths to the top of the mountain . . .
See you in Hell Joe. At least I know your seat will be HOTTER than mine.
I love the line about the cigars, it cracked me up!

Joe,
Salvation cannot be achieved by simply believing in God. Hey, Satan believes, too, but he's going down, not up! Please read Acts 2:37 - 41. Make Him your goal.
