“I am telling you if there is a God, when I get to heaven I’m not stopping to be interviewed,” Bloomberg declared. “I am heading straight in. I have earned my place in heaven. It’s not even close.”
In the World of the High Tech Redneck, the Graybeard is the old guy who earned his gray by making all the mistakes, and tries to keep the young 'uns from repeating them. Silicon Graybeard is my term for an old hardware engineer; a circuit designer. The focus of this blog is on doing things, from radio to home machine shops and making all kinds of things, along with comments from a retired radio engineer, that run from tech, science or space news to economics; from firearms to world events.

No, Bloomie did't earn his place in heaven. He bought it (so he thinks).
ReplyDeleteWait until he finds out that he cannot influence legislation there.
Oh dear, Bloomie's in for a nasty shock. The part where he freely admits The Lord's justice in damning him will be especially bitter, and that moment continues for a while. Eternity, actually. No, The Lord does not love everyone, else He would save everyone. His love saves, definetely, completely, selectively, eternally. A precious thing, not to be cheapened by "offering" it to everyone.
ReplyDeleteI think the "if there is a God" pretty much excludes him from most Christian versions of heaven.
ReplyDeleteMy catechism didn't have the requirement of faith in Jesus, the Son of God (if the is a God) as the key to paradise...
Of course, I was thinking of Ephesians 2:8&9. Don't have to tell you guys about that. Bloomberg, yeah. He clearly has no idea.
ReplyDeleteTo be fair, I think Bloomberg holds to some sort of Jewish belief, so St. Paul probably isn't going to convince him.
ReplyDeleteBut yeah, this is utterly misguided from any sort of Christian perspective.
