You really need to malign someone for calling out your hit and run on a post???

Maybe you need to forgive and move on.
No grudge here.
I don't need any animosity against anyone .
Calling you out for what you did, not who I am.
Well, I'm not the one whining about an emoji response from 3-4 MONTHS ago.

The way you jumped onto this (relatively old) thread to lecture me after MONTHS have passed lead me to believe that not only are you still dwelling on your "hurt" but that you've been unable to forgive.

Calling me out for what I did. Interesting. Again, you realize this site gives different emoji responses for a reason, right? We can click one and aren't obligated to give a reason why. It's kinda sad that you got so upset that a few people dared to disagree with you that you're STILL complaining about it months later. Says something about your character. Again, let it go.

Heaven? Not Interested.

It's an alien world with which I am totally unfamiliar; and when I leave here,
I will be leaving behind everything dear to me, e.g. photos, mementos,
souvenirs, collections, sights and sounds, mountains, creeks, rivers and
forests, clothing and equipment, landmarks, entertainment, hobbies, a
spouse, BFF, and my antique Ford Ranger pick-up truck, etc, etc.


The culture shock tsunami of leaving all that I know & love and going to a
foreign land where I know & love nothing at all, is not my idea of a good
time. Personally; I dread the thought of having to start all over again from
scratch.


For many of us working stiffs, the first day on a new job is stressful and
quite an adjustment. The night before that first day can cause enough
anxiety to keep us awake worrying about what we might expect.


I'd imagine that, whether we end up in the right place or the wrong place in
the afterlife, we will be just as stressed on our first day there as the first day
here on a new job.


The anxiety associated with death is to be expected seeing as how most of
us have no experience at all with that particular journey. But much of my
own anxiety in regards to death is related to what comes after. Pity there
are no guide books available in print to prepare us in advance for the
adjustment folks are required to undergo as they struggle to fit into
Heaven's (or Hell's) way of life.


* The one thing I do look forward to in Heaven is the possibility of a library
where everything that can be known about the cosmos is stored. Carl Sagan
would've loved a library like that because he went to his grave with a lot of
unanswered questions. But now they'll never be answered because Carl was,
at best, an agnostic, and at worst, an atheist.

Im not a violent man & not usually quick to judge, but as I read your post, the first thing that crossed my mind was if you were sitting beside me I'd reach over & smack you.
You are clueless of how you will feel the instant you are changed. The curse of sin lifted, every ache & pain gone, the feeling of total peace & joy, getting to see Jesus face to face etc etc,, and all you can think about is what you'll leave behind!
With all seriousness I must question whether you're saved or not because none of those great things were at the forefront of your mind. :(

Moreover, How do you think God feels about that right now?

Love that youre speaking the truth but odds are he's gonna block you, like he did me, cause he doesn't want to hear that he's wrong. 😔
