Irritated

I have been reading some of the posts on Ravens blog. Most of which I find very interesting. However I came across one entitled 'A Memoir Of Life After Death.'
As I began to read I thought, this sounds interesting. However the more I read, the more annoyed and uneasy I became, and like Raven I found the whole article very irritating.

I have to explain that I am a committed christian. Which I guess some will also find irritating. But that's their privilege, as it is mine to dislike this article that I am writing about.

The article was way too long for me to explain what it was all about.
But briefly the author is very sick and dies. He has an out of body experience and See's the proverbial white light, and hears a voice, which introduces itself as encompassed in all the major religions.
My faith teaches me that all roads do not lead to God, which is the prevalent teaching around today.

The Bible gives me some idea of what heaven is like and it sounds wonderful.
However hell is an awful place, that was not created for man, but for Satan and his demons. Whereas the authors understanding and description of hell is quite different. In fact his understanding of it, is that it's more to do with people than the enemy of mankind, Satan.
Suffice to say I found this article very disturbing and had to put pen to paper, so to speak.
And having done so , I feel a lot better.
But whether this post is of much help to any who read it, is debatable.
