Talk about mental calisthenics! How far do some feel they have to go to excuse stupidity and evil?
Did Hitler escape hell because he loved(?) his dog-never mind all the people he exterminated?
As if our opinions matter. We can opine on what people do when alive-afterward, it’s God’s business.
And now they shed the tears of a clown.
A culture that worships and idealizes celebrities is decadent and in decline.
NO
I have no desire to spit on the man’s corpse. Where he ended up is between him and God.
Accomplished people have always been admired.
ARE YOU ENTERTAINED???!!!!!
I wonder if the a-hole who chimed in about how “mean-spirited” a comment I made on a different thread was because after all the guy had three kids or some such tommyrot will chime in here.
The moron actor had three kids, but he put his own pleasure before his kids needs. While I do not claim to know what God will decide about his immortal soul, I will say this earth is better now that he has checked out.

Although I agree with the writer that we no longer as a society discuss hell and damnation.. however, as a Christian.. I will not decide/point to and say that their soul should be in hell. That is between each and every individual soul and God. No one else. He is the judge.. not me. Only God knows truly what in in our hearts.
He's not spitting on the man's corpse but just pointing out the hypocrisy of those who think that everyone they like will be "resting in peace" regardless of the life they led.
Doug Giles is just pointing out that there are two roads to eternity, the wide one that leads to destruction and the narrow one that leads to life.
The odds are that Hoffman, dying with a needle full of heroin sticking out of his arm, wasn't on the narrow road and isn't eating ice cream with Jesus.
Mr. Hoffman is the only one who knows where he is bound. As mortals we are incapable of anything more than speculation based on little evidence and the word of god! The exaltation of mister Hoffman is not Mr. Hoffman’s sin. It the sin of those who exalt sin over virtue, fame over the unseen heart of mortal men, and value the exaltation of men over the exaltation of God!
When God died, Hell took on new staff.
LOL!
To bad the guy couldn’t have been dried out.
But having known a few drug addicts, the lies never never end. You never know when talking to them if what they say is a truth, a fantasy, a truthful fantasy, a lie, or a lying fantasy.
Who knows.
But drugs alter the reality for the user to the point that they have no idea what truth is. So I do have some compassion. BUT stay away. Remove all contact lest you get pulled into bizzaro world and be destroyed with them.
Let’s not forget there are mega-corporations that promote them. It’s crass commercialism at its finest/worst.
