This guy didn’t know God is a Steelers fan. J/K
I’m not in a position to judge, but I’m sure this guy is full of regret now. On a related note, I think the most powerful scene in Forrest Gump is when Lt Dan (Gary Sinise) rages aginst God in the midst of a storm and then makes peace with him. The scene at the wedding when he has new legs and a new bride affirms this.
Yet that reinforces this mindset - that if you play nice with God you’ll get material blessings. You may NOT get material blessings. You may get The Cross. But you WILL get a better life and a chance to go to heaven and be with Jesus and happy with him forever.
I’ll take Door #3, Monte!
Sure about that Stan?
Uhh... yep, I’m sure.
Carol Merill, let’s see what we’ve got for Stan. Ooooh nooo, so sorry Stan, you got THE CROSS. Tell him about THE CROSS, Don
Don Pardo: That’s right Stan, you get THE CROSS along with complementary one-way air travel to Golgotha, the Place of the Skulls with overnight accommodations for you and a guest at the Ben Gurion hotel where a select team of Roman Soldiers will pick you up for a scenic walking tour through the Olde City followed by YOUR EXECUTION at 12:00 high. But wait, there’s more — After your crucifixion you’ll be lifted up by a flight of angels who will give you food and water, bind up your wounds, and take you by air to the Kingdom of Heaven where you’ll receive eternal accommodations in a land that knows no tears! Praise Jesus.
