I suspect it's not heavily populated, either, for the same reason that nobody got raptured on May 21: there are no *true* Christians.LadyAtheisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12132821431322748921noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8667116946377253622.post-16916249208130953542011-09-30T18:40:58.670-04:002011-09-30T18:40:58.670-04:00When I finished 'Job:A Comedy of Justice' ...When I finished 'Job:A Comedy of Justice' I decided to go to hell.

To them it's a feel-good security blanket not to be examined too closely. People know that many non-Christians are good people and the thought of them nevertheless going to Hell makes one feel bad, not good, so it has to be fudged, even if non-Christians getting into Heaven calls the whole point of being Christian into question. This has even reached the point of many people vaguely feeling that all religions are similarly valid, almost interchangeable, and need to just get along with each other -- an attitude inconceivable for old-school true believers to whom any other religion is a deception that leads people to Hell.<br /><br /><i>if Heaven is so great, why not just off himself and hurry upstairs</i><br /><br />And this is why so many religions make suicide a mortal sin, lest they lose too many of their most obedient and useful dupes who happen to think of this rather obvious point.Infidel753https://www.blogger.com/profile/10965786814334886696noreply@blogger.com
