“Be sure it’s true, when you say, I Love You — it’s a sin to tell a lie! Millions of hearts have been broken, just because these words were spoken: ‘I love you, yes I do, I love you; if you break my heart I’ll die’ — So be sure it’s true, when you say I Love You — it’s a sin to tell a lie.”

Now that’s bad, when you can’t smoke in hell.

Actually I’ve heard it said that there are two sections in eternity — smoking, and non.

Yes, that one throws me, too. I suppose those people are out there, and they must be a pretty depressing lot. I don’t think I know anyone who has that set of beliefs.

That’s interesting. Made me look up the song. Pretty.

Is this the version you were thinking of?

“It is also possible that thinking about hell prompts nonbelievers to think about what they may face if they are wrong in their nonbelief, he said.”

Well, there are some theologies that reduce the gospel “Good News” to “Good Luck.” They’re wrong. They are schemes by which men give God an “anxiety offering” which He does not want. (This is not the same as the “fear and trembling” of a believer, which is born of awe.)

The bible is treating the same subject from a number of different perspectives. Original sin is real and if not addressed it is a barrier to heaven. Ultimately it’s up to you to accept the call to heaven; and if you do, it’s permanent. But it won’t necessarily be an easy trip there.

What I can never understand is when people, during this global warming winter, tell me that outside it’s “cold as hell!” Say what?

I don’t believe em anymore.

I wanna live in peace and not deal with fickleness.

I’m convinced women adhore cats not so much for their beauty but, more as their little Yoda’s to teach them “The way of the Cat “.

Truth is; They just wanna play with their prey, wear em out until they die of exhaustion and then. feast on the cadaver to celebrate their endurance and indomitable spirit”.

Cynic? I only sit on park benches to observe people ....

I think people who don’t believe in hell, deep down, they really do. Just that little, niggling doubt.
