 According to what I believe in, I will spend some time in a form of limbo.
 This time will allow _The_Powers_That_Be_ to judge me in my mortal affairs.
 Then, with luck or gods' grace or whatever, I will spend the rest of eternity
 in Olympus.

>If you were to die today, would you go to heaven?
 
 No, neither would I want to.  If your "Heaven" is as all the bible toting
 self-egoist, theologian maniacs, say it is, I want no part of it.
 My idea of being rewarded for a good life is NOT having to put up with
 jackasses like that for eternity.

 Ew, wrong move.  Ok, let's look at it from this perspective...
 If my gods came to me and actually asked my opinion, I would tell them that
 I had led My life to the fullest that I believe I could/should have.

>What is my "agenda" for asking these questions?  Just curious.
 
 Now, it's my turn to ask a question: what do the two of you care?

 Actually, I would have to say that you were just trying to find some ammo,
 for when you, in some later day, decided to attack some or all of these
 [See above newsgroups crosspostings line] groups in an all out slanderous
 (sp?) non-fair, holy-rolling, stupid, "I'm right, you're wrong" powerplay.

 I only went along with it so that I might make the following suggestion:

 After seeing the amount of replies this thread has generated, in such a 
 short amount of time (just over 24 hours, at the time of this posting), 
 I say that someone ought to create a new newsgroup; ie: religious.survey,
 or talk.religious.survey, or even better survey.blathering.

 Keep America Clean:  Keep the stupid theology discussions to the .nets
 that actually WANT to read them!

Oh great!  You are a real typical simple-minded "let's make a

you?

I wrote:

and you CONVIENANTLY left off the last line of my text ("the vast average")
in your POSTED reply and added:

        I said ON THE VAST AVERAGE dick head!  We all know SOME white girls
are tighter than some races; try sleeping with an ASIAN ballet dancer who
isn't in puberty as see what happens!  Why the fuck do you think I said
"on the vast average" for?  Anyone with an IQ greater than yours (just about
everyone that is) knows that "on the vast average" infers that the AVERAGE
person from group A should be compared to the AVERAGE person from group B.
Not that you should compare the prepubecent white girls to a typical mature
asian girl.  (Or are you conveiently comparing them to some 60 year old asian
slut?)

        Shit.  If I had only a small fraction of a brain like you, I'd 
just probably respond to your post as follows:

In your previous post you wrote:
>

        and respond to you with stuff about "you sick motherfucker.... how
dare you advocate rape?"  This sort of pathetic tactic is a bunch of 
rubish that is beyond the intelegence of the average netter.  Grow up!

I don't know, and it really doesn't enrich my life to seek knowledge with
respect to this, as no one living can give me the answer.  If there is
an existence beyond life as I know it, I hope it will be pleasant and
rewarding, as this existence is.  Otherwise, best not to think about it.
 
|> If you were to die today, would you go to heaven?

Given my answer to to the first question, this question has no meaning,
since knowledge of the existence of heaven implies that it is known what
occurs when we die.  
 
|> If you were to die today and God asked you, "Why should I let you into my

Why would God care what I thought about it?  In this scenario, assuming
an omniscient and omnipotent God, God wouldn't need to ask, and it
really wouldn't matter what I had to say.  Any judging would be out
of my hands at that point.  After all, we are talking about GOD here.
 
|> What is my "agenda" for asking these questions?  Just curious.

As you can tell, I'm not that curious about this.  Given the number of
different religions and opinions on this topic, there's a good chance
that no one is really close the the real truth.  My philosophy is to
try to treat others as I would like myself to be treated, and not
worry about the hereafter.  It'll turn out like it's supposed to.

Subject: My Evil at the San Diego Comic-Com

Mr. William Shatner was at the San Diego Comic-Con on Saturday plugging
his TekWorld that Marvel is going to be doing a comic book adaptation
of.  I took the liberty after the panel discussion started that Mr. Shatner
was on to strategically place the following sign around the outside of the 
room that the panel was in:

    Hair Club 
     for Men
       3pm         (1:30 - 2:30 was crossed out because of a time change)
      with 
  Vice President
  William Shatner

Unfortunately Convention Center police and Con staff members did see my
evil so it was rather short lived before it was taken down.  But I did see
one Con goer take a photograph of my evil with his friend posed by my sign.
So there's at least one if not more photographs of my evil floating around 
and probably will be the talk of the Con for awhile.  Unfortunately, my
camera crew to photograph the evil was busy stuffing their faces, so I
didn't get a picture of it myself.  But no evil plan is absolutely perfect.

I figured I'd share that with you people who were were there and were
wondering who did it and if it was an urban Comic-Con legend.  It's not
because I did it and I'm proud of it.

Granted it is not on the level of cat burning or skinning the neighbor's
dog, but it was evil to those trekkies that worship Shatner.  I just wish
ABC news was there to get that on film.

Of course, you have to assume that they will lie. If for example, the question:
Do spiders scare you? is answered with a NO, then of course they are lying and
are praying to God that you don't, like, dip them in a vat of squirming spiders.

So whatever they answer, you do the opposite. The FIRST time. Then they expect
it the second time, and you of course reverse it.
