"I'm Not Going To Hell"

The idea of Hell is terrible. Despicable actually. Nothing to do with justice at all. It comes from the same people who brought you: Compulsory Schooling, Tesco, Walmart, Papal Infallibility, Original Sin, BBC Infallibility, The News, Slavery, Empire, The X-Factor, and The Bedroom Tax.

OK. Some of these people may be your employers. Which doesn't make you children of hell. YOU can bring a bit of life, and freedom and hope into The Fire. We've all been there. And on our better days we know that change is possible.

But, it is people who brought you the concept of Hell. Not God. And that is a hopeful thing. Because if it was God you couldn't do a thing about it. You would be subject to those rules. You'd either be in or out, regardless of the fact that you had absolutely NO choice in being here, on planet earth, in the first place.

But because Hell is a human concept, that means we have the ability to change the rules.

It would be a sin not to.


The line "I'm not going to hell" is from my song Devotion - April 4th 2014
