The Million Dollar Note!

[Swank]

OK, so the basis of this thread is the million dollar note: This is the best link I could find, if anyone can find better please post it: http://www.livingwaters.com/Merchant...oduct_Code=298 It basically looks like a million dollar note, but on the back theres a question: "If you died tomorrow, would you go to heaven or hell?" - Its given out by devout christians/some related religion as a kind of cheeky 'religion is the answer' reminder. Incidently I was at work (vodafone retail) and a guy gave me one after I gave him his change. Suffice to say I gave him an absolute earful over the counter and after trying to challenge me he just left. I know everyone here has a particular religion or at least set of beliefs about the unknown, but I think the idea that man was born into bondage, we are all seperate from god and must prove our way into heaven are all ridiculous statements. I myself am a Mystic, but come on, we are all equal and perfect in God's/the universes eyes, and we are not and never were seperate from God. I take all my beliefs with a grain of salt, but it is interesting to know that some people in the world think God (in whatever form) hates us and punishes us for our sins. What are classed as sins anyway? I dont see an absolute list? What a sucky world it would be if all that were true - no fun Just curious to see what others think.

I think the interesting people are in Hell, and I'm looking forward to seeing them . But more seriously, I don't quite understand the benefits of the one million dollar bill approach. How will that help convert people, if that's the goal? "Will you go to heaven or hell?" Neither, I say. How do you like that? Are people supposed to read that and say "....Ooooooohhhhh, NOW I get it!"?

Yayyyyy! My to favorite things combined. Obsession with money and guilt/fear-tripping people into believing ^____^ (sarcasm)

They should have made it more believable like a thousand dollars or maybe a hundred. Only idiots would believe a millions dollar note is lying around, however I guess you need to be a idiot to fool for the scare tactics on the back of the note. Oh yeah, I'm going to hell. Save me jebus
