Do dead cyclists go to Heaven or Hell?
(This is not a purely metaphysical question, since it can happen to
anyone riding a bike. I don't know who goes where, but my best guess is that the moral go to a different place than the immoral. And nobody rents donkeys where I live.)

Do dead cyclists go to Heaven or Hell?
Dude,
We're all immoral. We need a rescue. -- JF "Bad will be the day for every man when he becomes absolutely contented with the life he is living, with the thoughts he is thinking, with the deeds he is doing, when there is not forever beating at the doors of his soul some great desire to do something larger, which he knows that he was meant and made to do because he is still, in spite of all, the child of God.

One fine day in alt.atheism, Father Haskell bloodied us up with this: Better to take cars off the road by allowing people to work at home.- Well, if there's no value to bike lanes, then we got to make the whole right lane a lane for bikes, no? Make it the slow lane. Like it already is. Better yet, require all drivers to take the MSF course for motorcyclists. Let those in their cages see what we're up against. Excellent idea. So those Christian SUV drivers would get a good taste of Hell. |
