If not, what the heck, it helped to keep me on the straight and narrow, most of the time. I have a sneaking suspicion that, when the time comes, our atheist friends and their "unholier than thou" new converts, are in for a big surprise. Like the suicidal jihadis who are shocked to find that THEY are the highly-prized virgins when they get to their destination.
