I think the OP might be getting his or her ideas from the television show “Reaper” on the CW, about some kid whose parents sold his soul to the Devil when he was very young. The Devil then gives this teenager a job, capturing souls that have “somehow” escaped from Hell. The show is somehow connected to Kevin Smith of “Dogma” fame. The show is kinda funny, but, as we see by the OP, can also give people the wrong ideas.
Errr already mentioned reaper. See the concept of any mythology has an origin in at least some sense of truth. And it’s not like anyone really knows how anything in the beyond functions at all. And no one can really claim to know.

I just hope that if thier is an afterlife, that i get an intresting job in it, hate to just be headonistic and hand around in heaven forever…
 
This is a very worrisome thing when our youth get their worldviews and theologies from television instead of people who really care about them. I’m concerned.

Abbadon,

Read more, and not just the dime-novel trash and comic books, but good stuff to get an idea of what the world is about.

Television is a twisted, perverted fantasy world. It will make you into a virtual moron if you’re not careful. In the old days, censors held television and movies to a moral and intellecual standard, realizing its power to lead those in formation astray. These days, anything goes. Nearly nothing on that boob tube is close to accurate. The internet is not much better.

And, for that matter, most bookstores and libraries are full of garbage just as much. Demand nothing but the best, you’re worth nothing less. Study history from the sources. Avoid propaganda. You want to find the best quality in everything you read or see. Don’t settle for junk. Hint: Jesus and His Church is the best bet, though you will doubtless run off the path into all kinds of dead ends. I will pray for you.

Where are parents thesedays? Lord, help us. 😦
Nahi like entertaining junk. Brilliant plot lines, great story concepts. I mean pure genius comes up with ideas like dead like me, firefly, dexter and reaper… genius…

I rather enjoy watching and reading such things. I know that it is highly unlikely that it would be true in our universe or that thier is a universe that supports that same existance. However i am up for the possibilty of anything to be true…
 
Errrr how about a talking snake and a jewish zombie? And a ceremony where you symbolically eat it’s body and drink it’s wine…

If you look at any relegion from the outside it’s all wierd
I found the quote that describes chritinaity acurately but in a very hilarous manner…

Christianity - the belief that a cosmic Jewish Zombie who was his own father can make you live forever if you symbolically eat his flesh and telepathically tell him you accept him as your master, so he can remove an evil force from your soul that is present in humanity because a rib-woman was convinced by a talking snake to eat from a magical tree…

Every religion has a time known as an ending or known as the end of a cycle.

Revelations is real as written by Paul the Divine. It is soon and it is electric. Most likely due to the ignorance of humanity to God’s universe. Science is a prime candidate. Where there is extreme cold it will be filled, the evil heart and physically our experiments using huge rings of utter cold. Remember comet Holmes a month ago, a shot across the bough.

Do not look forward to a time of reaping it is wormwood. That means bitter and it is due to extreme electricity in the air fusing carbon and nitrogen together to form cyanide. When the earth is hit by the charge within the sun the water is lifted high over the land, pulled mightily from all sources. Pure water forms an arc at 15,000 volts, so millions of volts will lift the seas high and the rain that does fall will kill.

People do not listen, their hearts are hard and the time of the Lord is near. Do not wish to have the job of trying to talk to a world that does not listen. Look around you, when did you last rejoice in the glory of God.

Yep, it’s about as likely as, say, the details of quantum mechanics. As the great physicist Niels Bohr once said, “Anyone who is not shocked by quantum theory has not understood it.” Reality (at least at the deeper levels) tends to be pretty counter-intuitive. 🙂

Quantum theory is most informative. A simple look at the starting conditions to the universe inflation from the centre or inflation from a side change the dynamics totally. One can still have the balloon analogy but the centre point of reality becomes the proton. Equal distance to the smallest size in order of magnitude to the theorized size of the universe.

Quantum is most correct the smaller and deeper it goes … down to the level of thought and do unto others as you would be done by. If our reality is mirrored on that boundary it all works, is deterministic, connected and inescapable. It is the nature of humanity to find two conflicting views of describing reality … a nature of duality … seek and ye shall find is very true.

okay i understood rabble rabble rabble… That was so random that even i didn’t get it. I mean i write random but not that random.

When the world ends there are no souls to collect reapers are out of a job. Hope that have a good retirement package…

All due respect, you don’t even know if you’re going to get into the place and you’re already looking for work?

Anyway, your questions have been answered, to sum up, if Catholicism was 100% right-no reapers.

God Bless

Peter

Yea good point, well if i’m in hell or any relegious concept of the afterlife hope i find something intresting to do…

What does chritian heaven entail? Is it just pure hedonism straight up with a twist? Wouldn’t you get bored after the first 10000 years…

From 1 Corinthians 2:9
But, as it is written, “What no eye has seen, nor ear heard, nor the heart of man conceived, what God has prepared for those who love him,”
Not hedonism. Not boring. Pure joy.

God forbid it should happen, but if you do end up in hell your only job will be suffering.

Heaven is pure joy and bliss for all eternity. If there are things to do there you can rest assured that there will be infinite possibilities for fun, and for anything else. It is not limited like Earth, most of what will occur in heaven is beyond our imagination. Our minds are limited on this earth and we cannot even begin to comprehend what will happen in heaven.
 
EDIT: In my first post I said Michael is the angel of Death, I stand corrected, it is Gabriel.
I really didn’t think it was either of them… but now that you mention it, I think it’s both. :confused:

In Biblical tradition, Gabriel is sometimes regarded as the angel of death or one of God’s messengers. – Wikipedia

The Catholic Church honors Michael with four main titles or offices. He is the Christian angel of death, carrying the souls of all the deceased to heaven… – Wikipedia
 
I’m greatly concerned about the state of our brothers and sisters. All their time seems to be dedicated to self-centered pursuits. Many seem to be feeding their minds with utter trash. You become what you eat. Why do you think we Catholics eat the Body and Blood of Christ?

Turn off the television, people. Put on your discernment hats. Study some solid philosophy and theology.

For Abaddon, who seems very caught up in finding good in the demonic, please read Introduction to Christianity, by Joseph Cardinal Ratzinger, 1968. Maybe then you will understand how utterly blasphemous your “Jewish Zombie” talk actually is.

This thread has really gone more than it needs to, my question was answered pretty quickly. But I’m pretty sure that there could be a good deamon.
  1. a dead body that has been brought back to life by a supernatural force [syn: zombi]
i thought that was what happened to Jesus. Well i’m glad that we live in a world where i won’t get burned at the stage…
 
I think the OP is being deliberately facetious. The sad part is that so many younger people have this warped sense of it all. Much more chaotic than anything I remember coming down the pike.

It comes from having no connection to the past, and watching too much TV. Dead like me, genius? Good grief, it’s psychologically disturbing. There seems to be a weird fascination with death and dying in the culture and it comes out in shows like CSI, Supernatural, Vampire stuff and the like. Believe me, I have seen my share of dead people, and it doesn’t hold my interest one little bit. I think this culture has gone off the deep end, literally. It is purely diabolical.

And here you have a person that can’t seem to wait to see what it is like to be dead? Speculating on the details as based on some sick, ridiculous fantasy and holding it up as factual truth?

Lord, help us. 😦
 
Since the OP states the question was answered adequately this thread is now closed.

Thanks to all who participated.
