Sorry Matt, but you have no truly objective proof of that... It seems
that every religious sect (i.e. Catholic, Methodist, Baptist, Mormon,
Jew, Camel ****er, etc) thinks that the other sects are going to get the
basement level in the afterlife whereas only they are the "true
believers" and will be afforded the penthouse view... Odds are, most (if
not all) of them are wrong...


Actually, you're wrong.

Jews believe that non-Jews are welcomed into the world to come, assuming
they uphold certain basic morays. In fact, some non-Jews are at the highest
levels of the World to Come, and spend eternity studying and learning with
the greatest Rabbis and Forefathers of the Jewish people.

Additionally, Jews don't look to convert others to Judaism. In fact, they
discourage conversion, and some conversions from more "modernized" sects
are even rejected by the more Orthodox groups.

As for whether the Jews are right or not, I don't know. Maybe Mike is right
with his Atheism. Or maybe the Muslims are right. Or maybe even those guys
who believe Bob is coming back in his spaceship are right. I can't say for
sure.

But at the end of the day, there are certain things in life that I see and
I can't explain. Divinity or Synchronicity - it's just a way of explaining
the unexplainable, and it's still a dogmatic belief system no matter which
side of it your on.

Every dogma has its fleas... But that doesn't make the whole dogma evil...
