I couldn’t see waiting till I assumed room temperature, to see if I made it to Heaven, since I couldn’t do anything about it at that time. That’s primarily why I left. I wanted OSAS. 😀🤗😊

Mea culpa: that lengthy essay was written by metmom. She made such a thorough case I just copied it and re-issued it. I failed to include the attribution when I failed to post the entire essay as it appeared a few months ago. Notice the interrupted sentence at the end? Mea culpa

"There are only two kinds of people in the end:
those who say to God, "Thy will be done,"
and those to whom God says, in the end, "Thy will be done."
All that are in Hell, choose it. Without that self-choice there could be no Hell."
