...one cross each.
I've just read yet another causal throwaway comment from an "eternal suffering" promoter and I couldn't help being reminded of that scene from Life of Brian where the the doomed are queuing up for their crosses in this same matter-of-fact way. I wondered how it would play out at judgement time...
"eternal suffering?"
"yes"
"OK out through the fireproof door, line on the left, one set of gnashing teeth each" "NEXT"
"eternal suffering?"
"err no, eternal bliss actually.."
"Really?"
"Yes, I decided I was a believer after all and apparently I don't have to be burnt alive for eternity now"
"Oh how wonderful!"
"Naa..just kidding, I'm an atheist really LOL"
"Oh, well you know the score then...?"
"Yup...out through the fireproof door, line on the left, one set of gnashing teeth each"

"Eternal suffering, or Eternal bliss?"
"One minute please." (prays) "Dear Jesus, I acknowledge that I am a sinner and that I need salvation. I accept the sacrifice you made by dying on the cross for my sins. Please come into my heart and make me a new person." (turns back to gate keeper) "Eternal bliss, please." 😀

To be safe, be sure to give him food and not money. He might use the money to buy whiskey and become a drunken bum.

Originally posted by SuzianneYes, I have given money many times, but I am cheap and never give more than a twenty dollar bill at a time. However, I remember one time I saw this man hold a sign saying he would work for food and I was moved to go to the nearby Burger King and buy him a no. 1 Whopper Meal. My remark was not meant to stereotype them, but to call attention to that possibility.
