I’ll bet he crapped a brick when he heard God was alive and well and that he instructed that “God is Dead” boy will be bunking with Ded Kennedy...

A little overzealous? It was a rhetorical statement meant to comment on a facts...there was indeed a change in religious attitudes in the U.S. at that time.

Well I'm not consigning someone to hell for writing an article. Is John Lennon in Hell? Nietzsche?

I have no idea and think it’s presumptuous to guess.

If he’s where I think he might be, he can write an article about the reality of Underground Warming, a corollary of Global Warming.
