As with spiritual movements, the advertising for Heaven is heavy on superlatives, but the disclaimers are in fine hard to read print or unmentioned.
'His [man's] heaven is like himself: strange, interesting, astonishing, grotesque. I give you my word, it has not a single feature in it that he actually values. It consists -- utterly and entirely -- of diversions which he cares next to nothing about, here in the earth, yet is quite sure he will like them in heaven. Isn't it curious? Isn't it interesting? You must not think I am exaggerating, for it is not so. I will give you details.' ― Mark Twain, Letters from the Earth ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <curtisdeltablues@...> wrote : If the deal was not made with King Arthur flour and the can't use yeast, this is not a heaven for bakers. Plus with no LT for a BLT is is a dubious heaven for the rest of us. I think we can borrow some spices from the Indian heaven so we will be OK there. Plus Italians will have enough dried herbs in their pockets then they die to keep us in herbs forever. Oh yeah, chocolate is a plant. You gunna seriously call some place heaven with NO chocolate? ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <anartaxius@...> wrote : Yes, it is true animals end up in Heaven. There has to be a food source for the humans there. The animals are made into sandwiches. Plants don't go to Heaven, so there are no vegetarians there. I bet that is a surprise for some of you. Now, if you are thinking clearly, you may wonder how they can have bread up there without plants. For that you have to go to the Ascended Contract Archives to discover that since 1872, Heaven has had under contract the Pillsbury Co. or its successors for flour (the current successor is the J.M. Smucker Co. which sell Pillsbury branded products under license because General Mills bought Pillsbury and had to divest certain divisions of Pillsbury under U.S. antitrust laws). Because flour is made from a plant, there is a special dispensation clause allowing this particular ground plant derivative, as it cannot be reconstituted into a living entity. They have to make flatbread for the sandwiches, because yeast is not allowed, nor spices, or herbs, so the menu is pretty terrible actually. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <noozguru@...> wrote : But do they believe in heaven? :-D On 12/12/2014 10:46 AM, s3raphita@... mailto:s3raphita@...
