Deb and I are at the shops when I'm tackled (verbally!) by a Christian. I am the way, the truth and the light, he says.
do you know who said that? he asks me.
whatever I answered was not entirely satisfactory.
It was the directly inspired word of god, the man tells me.
In god's own autobiography? I ask.
If I were to write my autobiography, I continue,
I could also claim whatever I want.
I will go to heaven, the man tells me, confidently.
You, the man continues, will suffer
the eternal torments of hell.
I have long known my opinion of this rubbish.
There is no way that i will worship any creature just because they threaten me with violent and eternal revenge. Quite the opposite, I am too amazed to respond.
you will never get to heaven, the Christian confidently informs me.
I won't miss you but, i hope that you enjoy your heaven.
and so we part.
I do enjoy a discussion with a man of fixed opinions.A man who is not afraid to state his beliefs.
