Your mistake, Evensong, is that you assume you have to know what's going on in order to participate.

I have done an extensive review of doctrine in my church. The inevitable conclusion of the teachings of the church fathers is that the OP in this thread is doctrinally unsound.
Had our so called administrator bothered to check with me first, I would have been pleased to inform him that
is, and always will be, heretical. Of course, I have no desire to be overly harsh so I want you readers to understand that heretical here is used in only its technical sense. There is nothing in our teachings that says that
leads to eternal damnation, although a good long period in Purgatory is probably merited. Fortunately, Mr. Cresswell has already served a good long time in Purgatory, so he has little to worry about in this instance.
As to Evensong not understanding what Alan meant with
I can only say that sometimes the less said, the better.

Which, TBH, is unusual for Evensong. She normally joins in happily when she has no clue what is going on. Like always.

Reduced to its essence. But why stop at Hell? Or even the Ship? You mean like every other message board thread across internet history?
Alan has created the nearest thing to a perfect OP the web has yet seen.

I broke the handle on an axe today. Second day in a row, too. I guess it would help if I could actually hit the damn log with the head of the axe instead of the handle.
What I really need, but do not have, is a sledge and a wedge. I'm trying to make do.
