And they say Americans are stupid!
Stupid, stupid questions and stupid answers.
He won’t make it to the “pearly gates” he will go before the White Throne.
What this bozo does not realize is that since Lucifer was thrown out of heaven he is the prince of the air on earth. The evil that he speaks of is from Satan and God allows it...so he thinks it sucks here.Wait until he gets to his eternal destination.

God created a perfect world. It was man that screwed it up. Misery is your fault Mr Fry.
If I take the most lenient view of God's justice that I can imagine, I would say that even after death, a sinner may have a last chance to repent and accept Jesus as their savior. Perhaps -- just perhaps -- that would be enough for salvation. By that tremendously lenient standard, a lot of bad people might actually avoid Hell.
But Stephen Fry will not.
I believe that CS Lewis theorized that God made Hell out of mercy -- Hell is a place where God is not. If there are people who deeply, thoroughly, do not want to be in His presence, then God is loving enough to create just such a place.
I might care more about this if I had any idea who in the hell Stephen Fry was.
Or perhaps it will sometime be better phrased, who IN hell Stephen Fry is? lol
“If Stephen Fry met God...”
He won’t have long to wait.
Assuming he can stay on his feet before God . . .
The comments are as stupid as this pervert.
Imagine, for the sake of argument, that God does exist and that He will judge us. Wouldn’t it be an awful thing to realize at that moment just how wrong you were?
Frankly, without Rowan Atkinson and Hugh Laurie, this oafish queen would never have been heard of.
After his conversation, God would flick him to the ground like an annoying fly.
I was at a party in London with Stephen Fry, the man is a complete bore yet fancies himself a modern day Oscar Wilde.
Celebs make stupid comments every day.
By this point it's almost part of their job description.
There will come a day when EVERY knee will bow, EVERY tongue will confess (admit) that Jesus Christ is Lord...
Homosexuals hate the idea that there is a God for obvious reasons. However, this is simply foolish talk from an ignorant man. Jesus tells us that on the day He returns to judge the earth’s inhabitants, “every knee shall bow,” whether they want to or not.
He’s an entertainer, I don’t watch or listen to him for his personal opinion and couldn’t care less what it is.
The little girl, who had just started to read her book, replied to the total stranger, "What would you want to talk about?"
"Oh, I don't know," said the atheist. "How about why there is no God, or no Heaven or Hell, or no life after death?" as he smiled smugly.
"Okay," she said. "Those could be interesting topics but let me ask you a question first. A horse, a cow, and a deer all eat the same stuff - grass. Yet a deer excretes little pellets, while a cow turns out a flat patty, but a horse produces clumps. Why do you suppose that is?"
The atheist, visibly surprised by the little girl's intelligence, thinks about it and says, "Hmmm, I have no idea." To which the little girl replies, "Do you really feel qualified to discuss God, Heaven and Hell, or life after death, when you don't know shit?"
And then she went back to reading her book.
I found this quite funny, even as an agnostic.
“I think I’d say, ‘Bone cancer in children?’” Fry replied. “’What’s that about’? How dare you. How dare you create a world in which there is such misery that is not our fault. It’s not right. It’s utterly, utterly evil. Why should I respect a capricious, mean-minded, stupid God who creates a world that is so full of injustice and pain?’”
How do we answer his question?
I have responses that address his premise, such as, “why do you think bone cancer in children, injustice and pain are wrong”?
He does not have a reason for objecting to any wrong or evil.
But how do we explain such things?
What if he's not the one in charge of where he will go, then?
