I just got a bible tract pushed through my door
I was sitting here and thought I heard the cat scratching at the door, but it was a bible tract being pushed around the edge of the door. I need new weatherstripping or something. Or maybe a security door.

It says I'm going to Hell.

how are you today? :hi:

13. There are a lot of us
I guess someone has to go or Ghandi and all those other heathens will be lonely. Let's see . . . do I want to hang out with Ghandi or Pat Robertson? Oh, decisions decisions.

20. I think everyone in the neighborhood got them?
Hmm I assumed that. Actually it could just be me since I think everyone else in my neighborhood goes to church. We're the token heathens here.

It says that God doesn't love me - he only loves those who believe in him. That explained a lot to me.

19. hellerrific! How are you?
Christans aren't supposed to judge others anyway. Judging others is a hell worthy offense, so we'll see um there.

21. It says the day of judgement is near so someone is judging others
it also says that I have to pray to god to help me get an intense hatred for my sins. My sins are sending me to hell.

25. It's a lot harder to sin since I got married
I used to do it all the time before that.

I'll have to swear more or something. Maybe teach my daughter to swear. I wish I knew what all 10 commandments were so I could find some new sins.

:D

22. With this group freedom means slavery, war means peace
I think we can assume the same about Hell.

I figure, either way it works for me. Either Falwell and Graham are right, and I'll be in Hell, or they are wrong, and they'll be in Hell. Either way I want to wind up in the opposite place from them.

If God is a Fundie, I sure don't want to live in Heaven.

32. I've read the book
Heaven didn't sound that nice, unless you like mansions.

Hell, too, is way overhyped. It's more a pit of darkness. I'm a night person, anyway.

Guess I should mention for disclaimer that I'm an atheist and don't believe in either, but I have fun talking about them.

26. If it is a Jack Chick tract, hang on to it. There are people who collect
those and it might be worth big bucks in about 25 years.

28. No, I was hoping
it was a really boring one with no pictures, just a lot of talk about hell and judgement day.

*sigh* I can't even get the good bible tracts.

35. Maybe it's from a weatherstripping/siding company.
Does it say "if you can read this tract, your home is poorly insulated, but that's okay, because hell is nice and warm"?
