Ohh, I like this. A very nice twist on the challenge.

Minor nit pick is your ’and’s starting sentences, I don’t think they’re necessarily necessary, might have a bit more impact without. If you want to keep them, a comma, a colon, would suffice I think.

Thanks for the comment. I think starting a sentence with “And” is a stylistic choice. I use it only twice in the above ficlet.

Interesting! A Long time to think, indeed.

Very cool idea. the next Ficly could be, Selling Hell, or, Sell Me Hell, lol

nice little soft sale pitch

’There’s aplace for you too……"
Involvement and interaction is a great gatherer Raymond. Good story.

Congrats on the feature. This definately deserved it.

I love your title! It fits with what you’re saying and grabs attention, plus it’s a good thinking point already before you’d even started. Is it a quote from somewhere, or did you make it up? Either way, I thought this was an original perspective with a perfect title as the cherry on top.

Thanks for that comment. I don’t think it’s a quote, at least not a conscious one. I was thinking of the line from Milton’s Paradise Lost when I wrote it. It is better to rule in Hell than to serve in Heaven.

So there is no Hell but there is heaven? Meh,
Seems like the place for me. I have a problem with any kind of authority.
I like it until you confuse me with the bit about not Hell.

No Hell? I think you missed the point of the piece. There is a Hell, it just isn’t a place of torment. It’s a place where there is no god and no easy answers.

This is now my most read ficlet, with over 100 views. (110 now). I’m so pleased about that, it’s actually kind of sickening.

After re-reading the piece I understand a lot better, so I’m sorry :)
It’s brilliant

Oh wow, this is absolutely fantastic. I love it.

“Great unthinkers”, nice!

I dig it. We need more thinkers, instead of more sheep.
