The best doctor is solid faith in Jesus Christ. He seems to have missed it all the way to the end.

Poor guy.

“Don’t educate your children to be rich. Educate them to be happy.”

Having children can be a joy beyond expression.

The best doctor is solid faith in Jesus Christ.

exactly. But one can’t know another’s final thoughts and beliefs. Even though not explaining a personal faith as Rush did, we can only presume.

And i choose to pray that every worthy sinner finds Christ before passing.

For other worthless sinners, i withhold my prayers and know that God will judge them.

He was a very dislikeable human being. A true misanthrope who never liked anyone else, not even his daughter.

You need a better cup of coffee. Please.

In a world where you can be anything, be kind. At the very least.

My understanding is that this is a hoax email. Steve Jobs never wrote this stuff.

Agree 100%. Couldn’t have said it better. He recognized the problem but not the solution, it seems.

If he had listened to his doctors…he would be alive today.

His pancreatic cancer was on the bottom of the pancreas, it hadn’t spread, and was not involved with his lymph nodes. A surgery and ten shitty rounds of chemo and his prognosis for 72 months + was about 70%. If you ever get PC, you WANT the one jobs had.

Instead, he wanted to go “the natural” route. Of course, cancer “naturally” spreads.

Jobs ....was a very dislikeable human being.

As many of us all have a potential to be. Jobs has made my life easier and productive. I have purchased and used many of his products and appreciate the benefits i have from them. Jobs has had a positive influence on the world and a substantial legacy.

He could have been an azzhat as well. He may never have even liked himself.

Amen.

But we don't know what happened at the end. That's between him and God. I certainly pray that God gave Steve one more chance...and that he took it!

When you are lying in bed, dangling your feet over the edge of eternity, the only thing that matters is the future (except perhaps to God).

There have been a few times when, after asking people if they have accepted Jesus, they say something like "I don't believe in that."

Reminiscent of Pascal's Wager I ask, "Do you have insurance on your house? What about your car?"

You wouldn't believe some of the facial expressions that occur. On more than one occasion people have said that they would think about it, seriously think about it. That's better than nothing.

Maybe he recognized the problem, maybe he didn’t. We’ll never know, because this whole story is entirely fake.

Be that as it may, but most people at the point of death have a ‘come to Jesus’ moment.

I am curious...
Since we are all sinners and fall short, how do you presume which sinners are worth your prayers for redemption and which are not?
