I wish I had listened and trusted in Jesus Christ to save me. And now I must pay the penalty for my sin ... forever." (the unbelieving dead 'Jedi Master')

You sir or madam are IMO a despicable and a miserable sorry excuse for a human being and you are exactly the type of person who gives some - fortunately in my experience – only a very few "so called Christians" a bad name and even the type of person who actually drives some away from a belief in God with your indignant self-righteousness.

Perhaps you should really look deep within yourself and look into your own "sins" and failings and shortcomings in your own life before casting stones at others.

You have no idea what this man's religious beliefs were or what his faith in God was. And who are you to judge him?

"He is now one with God and with the Force," his wife, Ashley Fleetwood, wrote on her Facebook page Tuesday. He died in his sleep and in peace, she posted.

Instead of praying for this man who suffered greatly from a terminal cancer and got to see a movie that he was a fan of but that that he wasn't going to live long enough to see, or praying for his wife and family who evidently loved him greatly and for God to give them comfort and understanding of His greater plan, in their time of loss and sorrow - no - instead you post a picture of someone roasting in the pit of Hell. Nice. Real "How Very Christian of you". You are the worst example of the type of so called "Christian" who revels in the idea and image of people roasting in Hell because evidently you know, beyond all doubt that you are so much better and would never deserve such a fate. Or maybe you do.

Again, perhaps you should take a real deep, long, hard and unflinchingly honest look into your own life and your own spiritually and shortcomings and how you treat others as compared to how Jesus actually did - the sinners, the prostitutes, the lowest of the low, the outcasts, the lepers, tax collectors and the thief on the Cross next to Him. And also consider who in your own life would do something nice for you if you were in your final days of a terminal illness that might give you a bit of joy and a temporary distraction and reprieve from the pain and knowing your physical life was near its end. Would they help you have a bit of joy from something you enjoy in life or would they give you or post pictures of you roasting in Hell?

FWIW, I know a lot of devout Christians who are big fans of Star Wars. Some of them even see it as analogous of the fight between Good and Evil. Their religion is not "Jedi" but some see it as a basic story of good against evil - not perhaps "Biblical" but none the less a story of the triumph against evil. YMMV.

I feel very sorry for you that you would post something so hateful on this post.

Congrats. You just turned me into a devout atheist.

Were you merely a wavering atheist before?
