I also find it interesting that when someone is dying...like to the point that hospice is called in, they pray and fast and have words  and dreams that the person will be healed. They beg God, order God and claim the healing. They say it isn't God's plan, blame Satan, and rebuke anyone that dares to mention that maybe it is the person's time. Then when the person dies, they never address the way they acted. They never retract the nonsense...they just ignore it...like none of it was said.
I have heard (I heard this from the hospice workers who helped with my Grandpa) that dealing with Pentes can be very hard for them because of all the drama and the mumbo jumbo and the preaching.

Pentes do not deal very well with death, do they?? It's a hard thing, yes, but don't they realize that by not recognizing it as the solemn occasion that it should be, respecting it and treating it as a part of life they make it harder for everyone, even themselves?? I've only heard IRL how it is and seen how it affected somebody. My ex-wife lost her grandma the last time we were on really friendly terms (which was from '05 to '07) and the main thing I remember was a lot of people fighting over grandma's money. She was clearly devastated by the loss, yet could not express it around most people in her life...so she talked to me.

You would think if they really believed all the stuff they say about how great heaven is and how much this world sucks, that they would embrace the next world instead of distracting themselves with craziness or shrinking away from it in fear.

Or does all that get messed up by Pente-god's "Salvation" being so capricious and weak and all the talk about fire and brimstone and hell??

Which is which?? Do they believe more in heaven or hell?? I'm curious...
