So I went to this play-like thing called "The Judgement", put on by a local Baptist church. It was set up on the fairgrounds, although how they got the city to let them use the grounds I'll never know.
The play was basically about a family that crashed in an airplane (as we all know happens all the time) and went on into the afterlife. Rather than being a traditional play, where they would dim the lights between scenes and change the setting, each room was a different set. For example, in one room you would see the people boarding a plane, and in the next room you would see them all dying, etc. There was a different set of actors for each room, and to their credit it was hard to tell sometimes, but often I was left wondering who these people are and why they suddenly came into the play.
The trip as a whole was very educational for me. Your viewing pleasure, and to save you the trouble of going to see it next year, I've made this list of fifteen things I learned from it.
'Cuz that's the way it be.
- You can hire a crop duster at an airport if you miss your flight.
- Praying before you go on a flight won't stop you from crashing.
- After a fatal crash, people have a few lines of blood on them.
- In a hospital, the patient's pulse rate is displayed on a laptop computer.
- There is a soundproof window between an emergency room and the family members of the patient, so the nurses don't have to hear the bloody loud screams.
- Little angel children escort people to the gates of Heaven and push people into Hell.
- You can go to Hell for being a Christian but not taking God seriously.
- In Hell, there are, in this order: a homecoming queen, a church choir member, and an evolutionist.
- Evolution is Satan's greatest lie, since it has deceived so many.
- Demons wear black cloaks that cover their whole bodies, but the Devil has orange lining his hood.
- Demons have nothing better to do but push people in Hell and make them fall down.
- They play country music in Heaven.
- Jesus crowns people who enter Heaven; they respond with "Thank'ee, Jesus".
- Jesus's throne has babies crawling about it.
- All angels are female; men just sort of disappear when the reach heaven.
For ten extra points: Put together the first letter of each item and unscramble it to spell "JAY YEILD TAP IT DJ"!
