A Culture Dumb Enough to Believe in Heaven Is for Real


A little boy is raised by a preacher and by hardcore Christians, nearly goes brain dead, wakes up and says he saw Heaven.
His lying family claim with straight faces that they have no idea where he could have gotten such notions -- surely not from them -- so it must all be real, and the resulting book is on the bestseller list forever, and the film drama version is poised on the box office charts now just behind a movie about talking animals and just above a bombing film about Johnny Depp being the Singularity.
It's a perfect weekend for religious believers to be deeply ashamed of themselves and the culture they've helped create.
