If you do that, God will forgive ALL your sins and you get a plum spot

You are incorrect. According to most Christians in S.C. and in the
South, you must REPENT - it's not enough to mouth the word "Jay-sus"
before you die. When you repent you can be saved - once saved, always
saved. Get a Bible and read it. Get some smarts and learn what you are
talking about and then get back to us. Thanks.

That's what my cousin by marriage Bobby did, he who figured so
prominently in my story "Fat Bitch Doughnuts." As my mother once said
of him "The Devil ain't got no better servant than Bobby!"
She said that based mainly on his penchant for cussing, and as momma
called it, "bad cussing" - meaning taking the Lord's name in vain and
using the f-word. Momma takes a very dim view of cussing and somehow
believes that bad cussing is a sign of influence of the Old Scratch.
When she said that about Bobby being the Devil's servant, I pointed
out to her that our other cousin Tommy and my own brother, Momma's
oldest son cusses everyday as bad or worse than Bobby. She was silent
for about 30 seconds until she said "Well, I pray for all of 'em ever
day."
Two weeks before he died, Bobby accepted Jesus and Momma was satisfied
he went to heaven as a result. I think about it sometimes. I think it
would be a fine thing to be in heaven since Marshy and Company won't
be there, them bein' Hindus and all and not believing in Jay-sus. I
reckon Marshy is someplace else, maybe schmoozing with Hitler whom he
admired in life.

"... as we common folk in the South like to call it ..."
Since yer a Southern boy, how come you haven't taken Jesus into your
heart like you shoulda? Instead you played with the hindoo demons and
were shafted by the TMO. No doubt you were unique in that regard.
Why won't you just get down on yer knees and pray Jesus for
forgiveness. Yer still playing with the demons here on FFL and you
don't want to admit it to yerself. We could, of course, send a few yer
way.
Got demon?
