Can't think of any reason sufficient to do that.
Mahler for eternity or Elgar for eternity, how is that a hard decision?  ???

Don't understand.  What does the music of Mahler or Elgar have to do with Christ?

Jesus has good musical taste and therefore he allows Mahler in heaven and leaves Elgar in hell!

I never joke about Christ (or Mahler for that matter).  By the way, why did Christ come into your mind?

didn't you read through the thread... it's just a succession of thoughts.

For some reason, Greg, the name of Jesus confuses a lot of people; they think you can't joke about Heaven or Hell or Jesus or God at all.  But I figure that God gave us laughter too. ;D
Imagination + discipline = creativity

But you have a sense of humor, Jo.

This thread has gone beyond intended grounds.  Joking has exceeded that beyond what is proper.
