Sorry you have to deal with that from your family.

33. Whoa there...if all the cool folks are in hell |
|
...what makes you think Hitler is cool enough to be there too? I am quite sure that the "cool police" monitoring the doors of hell would have sent him off to someplace where the not so cool folks wind up. He is likely hangin out with Pat Robertson and Saddam Hussein...wherever in hell that is.
Tell ya what, if I get to hell before you, I'll vouch for ya but you got to promise to do the same for me. Judging by all the other loungers vieing for a spot there, it may get a bit crowded. (Do you suppose there will be any cats or dogs or espresso stands in hell? God I certainly hope so!)

34. That's why I said 'interesting' rather than cool. |

Sometimes you gotta take the good with the bad.
But if the rules are as strict as they are written in the bible, only the really boring people are gonna get into heaven. So everybody else goes down below.

5. If you keep him bound and gagged in the basement, he can't act so insolent |
|
You're being entirely too lenient. In ways, this is like making your life a living hell. So I'm seeing a win-win here.

Seriously though, I'm sorry your family is being so hard on you. You always have us to come to for sanity. Which is really ironic when you think about it. :hug:

12. Ah. That's true. Tell him that God must be larger than any opinion about God that he can have. |
|
And that God will likely decide, not him. Something else in the Bible about Judge Not, Lest Ye Be Judged, I think.
That one is really difficulty for me...

16. I flew a trip a couple of years ago with what I would call |
|
a "Catholic extremist" copilot. He spent days listing all the reasons I'm going to hell - divorce, remarriage, vasectomy, etc., etc.
He went to great pains to point out that while he hated to be the bearer of bad news, my eternal damnation was an irreversible certainty. There is nothing I can do to change the unfortunate situation.
I told him in that case, I was going to break out the cocaine and the hookers. He said I shouldn't test God's anger. My reply was, "what would he do - send me to hell?"
That did pretty much end the conversation.
I skipped the cocaine and the hookers anyway.

18. There are two things in life to worry about... |
|
either you are well or you are sick. If you are well, there's nothing to worry about; if you are sick, there's two things to worry about- either you will live or you will die.
If you live, there's nothing to worry about; if you die there are two things to worry about- you will either go to heaven or to hell.
If you go to heaven, there's nothing to worry about. If you go to hell, you'll be so damn busy shaking hands with friends you won't have time to worry.
I heard this about 30 years ago and it's the first thing I think of when someone says that. :rofl:

I shudder to think about it, because one of my boys is 13, the other 9, but the world that is coming will not be pretty.

I tried finding it on youtube, but you get the idea, if you know Bill Hicks.
Which you should.

37. Don't underestimate the anxiety he might be feeling if he really thinks his sister is |
|
damned.
Regardless, you are the older sibling; it is your job to take what he says with a grain of salt. After all, he IS only 12. But he will get older, and it's pretty cool to have a close relationship with your siblings throughout life, so withhold judgment for a while. Hopefully, you both will laugh about conversations like this in the future. :hi:
