First Circle of Hell is Limbo, which is where the unbaptized & righteous pagans live.
So they're stuck there for all eternity?

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

As far as I know, but Limbo is described as a pretty decent place. There's fields and a castle, and, um, other things....
(It's been a while since I read The Divine Comedy, I should re-read it.)

Huh. Although that means when you die, you could end up in Heaven, Hell, or the place that's pretty decent.
So what do you have to do to be a Righteous Pagan? If you're exposed to the Gospel but reject Jesus anyway, do you lose the Righteous Pagan option?

Yeah, it's only technically Hell. I mean, Buffalo and NYC are both parts of New York, right?

Yeah, rejection of Jesus pretty much ruins your Limbo qualifications. And no amount of dancing will save you.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there
How low can you go? Lower than that, apparently.

Oh, last class of the day, how I have grown to loathe and fear you. Every initiative falls apart under the weight of your apathy and anarchy.
Curses.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
Trudy, that link took me to "Stars Ups and Downs"
Agh! It woulnd't link directly.

Hey. New board.
Gris, please know that didn't intend to be a lecture, though it sounded like one.
Never thought you were. If I came off defensive, not intended. I appreciate getting wake-up calls, even when I'm all like "Yeah, cool, now I'm gonna go back to sleep for another while, k?" And it forces me to really analyze whether it makes sense, which is nice since I keep coming up "yes."
I'm glad Shir's sister is home!
The religion discussion is interesting, but my brain is WAY too much in the off mode to contribute or even boggle. I spent my day trying to work out our new class schedule for next semester.
Most math isn't so bad. 4-d logic puzzles with an uncertain number of constraints (which this basically boils down to) are hard. I'll give Barbie that one.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".
Oh, sis is back in the army by now. But she was at *my* place, where I could really make her feel comfortable. And we talked for about 90 minutes before she collapsed to sleep, and she even let me hug her and pet her hair few time. Big win, by our book.
And now, really, I'm off to bed.
