### Twin Towers and the Gates of Hell

Driving to work this morning, I caught a religious broadcast I don't normally listen to, so I can't provide a good source. It was a call in program. The caller said, as nearly as I can recall:

> You wanted our thoughts and memories [about 9/11]. I can remember sitting in front of my TV crying because I knew that most of those people in those buildings were going straight to the gates of hell. I use that a lot in my witnessing now.

What a joyful witness she must be. I am grateful to have a faith where eternal judgement is according to the light that we have received. I'm grateful that my faith assigns most people who have lived on this earth some degree of glory and salvation in the next life. While not Universalists, Mormons have the next best thing: a religion of accountability AND great mercy.

  I don't often laugh out loud when reading blogs, but that one got me. Gotta love those Evangelicals.
