Today at the lunch table, while I was on duty supervising and doing my lunch "duty," I sat down beside our female principal, and a conversation started about going to heaven.
She was talking about the body, the "resurrection of the body," vs. going to heaven immediately. Many there chimed in with their opinions, and I couldn't believe what I was hearing from these "educated" people. They were all expressing literal beliefs in this matter, and even called over the janitor...a lay Pentacostal preacher, for his opinion. At some point, the female principal, looked at me directly, and asked my opinion, at which I said (feebly), "I don't belief in this."...or something to that effect, and quickly excused myself.
They were all discussing it like it's a FACT, and must have a literal conclusion.
In my opinion...who can know???
