How it all began

 As soon as I knew how to talk, my Mother said to me, Say your prayers at night like this, Now I lay me down to sleep, I pray the Lord my soul to keep, and if I die, before I wake, I pray the Lord, my soul to take. Amen. The bombs were falling in Vietnam, and all the talk was about Atomic Bombs, from over seas’ So the prayer made perfect sense to me. I still say it every night, it’s only right. And I say, In Jesus name, Amen. Because I believe in him, The Son of God.

As I got older, I was lucky enough to have parents who allowed a wide variety of music in the house. My older brother had Quicksilver Messenger Service, Happy Trails to You, and my sister had the brown Jesus Christ Superstar album. I learned all the parts, and sang them with my sister. So, you could say I believe in Jesus Christ Superstar, because I have read the New Testament, and it is pretty much the same, obviously with a whole lot left out.

More about Heaven and Hell

The story about Jesus talking to Nicodemus in John 3-1-21 supports my view that Spiritual things exist, and that people who are born again, have a spiritual existence.

Are bad people sent to hell?

 My answer is yes. The killers that hurt people here are going to be met with the same kind of awful punishment that they dished out, when they meet their maker. There are lots of people being supported by the US tax payers in prison, where the more ruthless you are, the better your life is, you get to run gangs and have a blast torturing weaker individuals. But the party will be over when they die. We The People, support murderers in prison for years, that should have been executed right after their crime. But you can only get away with it here on earth for so long, sooner or later, you’re gonna die.

The Experiment that is Mankind

 Some people say there is no God, because if there was an all powerful God, who wanted good, and peace in the world, he wouldn’t let things get in the shape they are, and allow bombs to drop on innocent people and non combatants. This sounds like a good argument. But if you consider a God who created Mankind as a group of people with brains in their heads, then wouldn’t he refrain himself from stepping in when things go wrong? So, isn’t Mankind a large experiment which will ultimately result in either success for peaceful and good intentions, or the downfall of humans, at the hands of those who rebel against the teachings of God? What will your part in the experiment be?
