In life, if you are refused membership to a club, you get a refund check for dues paid; what happens to your tithes if Jesus denies you entry to God’s Paradise? Mal. 3:10.

Selling eternal life is an unbeatable business, with no customers ever asking for their money back after the goods are not delivered.

I long to belong like a midget longs to be long. Footlong hotdogs are 12 inches too short to take seriously, and I vote with my wallet. Sadly, there are no refunds in politics.
