Email from my cousin

The smile on my face is not because
I think I am perfect.
It is because of all
the things my God has blessed me with.

My question for the Lounge: do you think I will go to hell for sending this answer ?:

Do you seriously think Jesus would end a sentence with a preposition ?
~ God

maybe I'll just end up on a prayer list. .... for the rest of my life.

"God has blessed me with a command of the English language and the knowledge to know to never end a sentence with a preposition."

... and probably Hebrew. Maybe a little Greek or Latin. Certainly not English, which wasn't even around then.

If you have a solid reason for raining on your cousin's parade, then go for it. Since I don't believe in a future state of rewards and punishment, I can't answer your presenting question.
