I just finished Mark Twain's "Captain Stormfield visits Heaven" - short read, and obnoxious because Twain tries to make Stormfield uptight and pretentious sounding...by 19th century standards (which is already uptight and pretentious). Interesting ideas (like how people get a job in heaven because they get bored of sitting around with a harp; how people prefer looking older age because they can't relate to the mental naivety of younger people, etc.)

That's a good sign that you notice it now. You must be making spiritual progress.

"The World Must Conform to Our Lord and not He to it." Rev. Dennis Fahey CSSP

"My brothers, all of you, if you are condemned to see the triumph of evil, never applaud it. Never say to evil: you are good; to decadence: you are progess; to death: you are life. Sanctify yourselves in the times wherein God has placed you; bewail the evils and the disorders which God tolerates; oppose them with the energy of your works and your efforts, your life uncontaminated by error, free from being led astray, in such a way that having lived here below, united with the Spirit of the Lord, you will be admitted to be made but one with Him forever and ever: But he who is joined to the Lord is one in spirit." Cardinal Pie of Potiers
