Christianity

Student [walking by my desk, noticing the cover of the movie Ghandi which another class had watched]: Ghandi. I did a report on him last year. Good guy.
Me: Yeah, great guy.
Student: Yeah...it's too bad he's burning in hell right now.
Me: In Hell? Is that what you think?
Student: Yeah, he didn't believe in Jesus. [Student exits room]
Me [to two remaining students]: Well, I guess that's it. That's what Christianity has come to...it's an easy way to decide that a person who gave his whole life to helping others in the model of Jesus can burn in Hell, and another person who is totally selfish and caught up in himself can say "Jesus is Lord" and go to Heaven.

It may help you to know that this student is one of those barely alive types who moves through life in smugness and a dull haze.
