If God is forgiving, and he will forgive me if I repent while on earth, then why would he not extend the same love/forgiveness when I arrive to heaven? Most importantly, if God and heaven are spiritual/ethereal then why is the description of hell so physical and worldly? Is hell in the center of the earth...??? I thought worldly elements could not exist in the spiritual realm. Satan, hell, demons, etc., are the result of a greedy Pope who needed to find fear based ways to scare people into doing what he commanded. As the different sects of Christianity started to go further away from the teachings of Christ, and form different denominations, the hell theory spread like wildfire. The reason I stopped going to church and reading the bible is because I was sick of being attacked and judged by hypocrites. Christianity's history tells me all I need to know about their future and their history ain't pretty. The majority of Christians are of the ego, the ego produces fear, and the ego/fear is not of God. Satan does not exist. Period. If God loves me unconditionally, then why would he send me to a place where I will burn in fire for all of eternity?

I do know that reversals aren't necessarily "negative"... just as the Death card isn't immediately a harbinger of death. Those who jump to that conclusion need a little bit more exposure to what the cards mean, eh? :p I’ve not gone back to the tarot yet (I do owe myself a post about that… one day!) … the cards I currently use (Ascended Masters oracle cards) do not come with any “reversal” interpretations, so I keep them all same side up.

You've got my tastes pegged - I love Fairstein, too. Of course, I also adore Evanovich because really, who doesn't want to have two hothothot guys lining up to protect you when you do goofy things that get you into all kinds of hot water? And she's got genius when it comes to creating minor characters... @Susan - It’s the smart thing, definitely! You’ve got my tastes pegged - I love Fairstein, too.

We have to give the devil power and credit because that's what we're taught every week from the dude at the pulpit who's spitting tales of fire and brimstone and evilry at us! What's wrong with you? Do you not believe EVERYTHING you read to be fact? I mean, God loves me lots, but he's going to burn me to a crisp if I'm bad. That makes total sense. And if you blow really hard? Well, you can make 2 out of every 3 little pigs homeless. I'm still looking for the place where pigs actually build homes and talk. I haven't found it yet, but I KNOW it's there. *hangs head in shame* I'd better hope there's not a hell or I'm so going there for saying that... ;) Um, hello y’all?!

I love your attitude about it - indeed - why give the devil so much power and credit? @Ash - My parents and family tend to treat my involvement with Tarot and paganism as a somewhat humorous “stage” that I’ll eventually grow out of… you’d think after 35 years, they’d figure out that this is one heck of a looooong phase.
