    Well, then why didn't she say so instead of saying her babies would be there saying "hi mama," and all that crap?

    And seriously, do you really think that more evengelicals have read C.S. Lewis (crazy as that nutjob was) than watch "The View?"

    Oh, and while I'm at it...yes, your beliefs about meeting perfect people in heaven are absurd. Perfect according to who? How are they perfected? Are gay people not gay in heaven? Wait, they're not allowed in, right? How about fetuses with chromosal abnormalities? Do they get their genes all fixed up? How about people who grew up with those same chromosomal abnormalities? Do they get adjusted up to par on the IQ scale, or do they get an extra boost for all their time spent lower down? What about pets? Will you be surrounded by hordes of perfected goldfish, lost down countless toilet bowls?

    The whole idea is for the soft-skulled who desperately need to believe something to feel better about death.
