I swear, this remind me of being in school. There was ‘the girl’, who happened to be (just an example) Church of Christ who constantly wagged her finger at classmates who were Baptists telling them they’re “all going to hell”.
I spent about 18 years in the Church of Christ, being told regularly I was hell-bound. Until I was emancipated.
Years later a neighbor girl, father was a deacon, asked my daughter to a ChofCh church retreat. She went & she came back troubled. I asked her if there was a problem—she said they kept telling her she was going to Hell. So she hasn’t been back.
They’re like Amish on crack.
When I was a little girl shortly after WWII, the little Catholic school girls would tease me by putting one foot in my yard and say I could not make them get out because I was a Protestant and I was going to hell. Really gave me a low opinion of organized religion at an early age. Our founding fathers were wise to keep religion out of the Constitution except to say the religion could NOT be used as a basis for holding office.
"Now if any of you will deny the plurality of wives, and continue to do so, I promise that you will be damned;
and I will go still further and say, take this revelation, or any other revelation that the Lord has given,
and deny it in your feelings, and I promise that you will be damned.
