I don't know what that is but I suppose it would be only fair if you were not the only one to have to come back. I suspect I will have to come back sooner rather than later. even though I don't want to.

I'll be free from this world. I hope to go to heaven but just about anywhere but here is better.

I don't actually believe in reincarnation. Which is kind of a shame, because I like the idea of karma. It would also be funny to see certain nasty individuals come back as a slug, or maybe lichen.

to come back as a lower life form is transmigration which according to edgar Cayce is not allowed. but to come back [from a previous lifetime of ease and arrogance] as a put-upon pauper, is certainly a possibility.

It refers to the notion, held by some, such as beer advertizers, that the prettiest girls come from Scandanavia. And also to a specialist theory that the prettiest in Scandanavia come from Norway.

:lol:

I suppose a worse fate is to be a harem's eunuch.

There's a joke about a man that goes to Hell,but it's beautiful,with parks,fountains,flowers,and beautiful women everywhere.But the joke is,the women have no vaginas.
I saw a cartoon for fisherman's Hell,the devil is holding up bait and beer.He tells the fisherman he can choose only one.

my fave hell joke was an old gary Larson cartoon featuring hell "booths" where like obnoxious types of people were jailed forever- one such booth was the "slowpoking drivers not letting other drivers pass them" booth where demons kept jabbing them in the butt and telling them to hurry the hell up. another good one was where this guy awoke from a nightmare in hell, and his fellow hell traveler told him "it was just a nightmare- OF COURSE you are still in hell!"

I don't know if it was Larson, but another comic had people in the waiting room to hell. A guy at the coffee pot was saying "Man, they thought of everything, even the coffee's cold."

:lol:

I just want to clarify with the OP that we have just gone on a burning rabbit trail and are not suggesting they can expect to go to hell.
