I was browsing through Augstine's _City_ _of_ _God_ a few nights ago,
and I came across his commentary on what he thought of the meaning
of the scripture that "everyone's life was recorded in a book."
He figured that no book could contain a complete history of just
one person and that it would require too many angels to read the
book to each of the dead souls. I wish I had the text available
to include here. It's really amusing to see Christians try to make
sense out of their own dogma. And they can't.
Anyway, only 24% of the world population is Christian. That means
there's gonna be all these Hindu dudes and these Shinto dudes and
these Chinese ancestor worshippers trying to figure out why *their*
name isn't in that ol' Book o' Life...
