Had to skip to the end of that vid where Scott Butcher is mildly joking about the rumor that commercial Airlines make sure that there are never two Christians in the cockpit , in case the "rapture" happens & they both disappear!
Around 52.33, then right after comes Richard Carrier who's asked the "what if" question, found himself in Hell , he rightly points out how difficult harping gleefully up in heaven might turn out while knowing there are billions of people down below being tortured. Hes followed right after by Alan Dundes to my surprise , my Anthropology Folklore professor , telling a little yarn about the pope up in heaven who learns that there was a typo about celibacy in the scripture , God originally wrote celebrate!
Alan Dundes was the world reknowned professor of folklore, never pushed atheism at all, but one gets huge perspective when seeing all the stories & myths that pervade the landscape of human creation, far vaster than anything can be imagined . (Still going on right now) |
