Galileo Galilei on Heaven

Galileo Galilei on Heaven



Post  Scriptus-Thanks to "The Curt Jester" Jeff Miller, who pointed out that Galileo was quoting Cardinal Caesar Baronius when writing to a duchess.

Bloomberg Believes That He's Earned an E-Z Pass Thru the Pearly Gates




As Michael Bloomberg engaged in a publicity campaign with the New York Times which highlighted his $50 million personal contribution to support gun control, the three term former  Mayor (D,R,I, D- NYC) offered some insightful opinions on his eternal reward
.
While Mr. Bloomberg is Jewish in origin and agnostic in practice, he is confident that his nanny state policies banning Big Gulps, trans-fats, salt and his efforts to grab guns has earned him an easy pass through the Pearly Gates, should it exist. 

Bloomberg's metaphysical musings seem counter to Christian concepts of sacrificial redemption from the Cross, which will be celebrated this weekend during the Triduum and Easter.

Amusing Obama Eschatology



When Obama died, 
George Washington met him at the Pearly Gates. 
He slapped him across the face and yelled, 
"How dare you try to destroy the Nation I helped conceive?"

Patrick Henry approached, punched him in the nose and shouted, 
"You wanted to end our liberties but you failed."

James Madison followed, kicked him hard and said, 
"This is why I allowed our government to provide for the common defense!"

Thomas Jefferson was next, beat Obama with a long cane and snarled, 
"It was evil men like you who inspired me to write the Declaration of Independence."

The beatings and thrashings continued as George Mason, James Monroe and 66 other early Americans unleashed their anger on the radical, socialist, leader.

As Obama lay bleeding and in pain, an Angel appeared. Obama wept and said, 
"This is not what you promised me."

The Angel replied, "I told you there would be 72 VIRGINIANS waiting for you in Heaven. 
What did you think I said? You really need to listen when someone is trying to tell you something!"
