Not very newsworthy, but it would seem that I'm going to Hell, are you going to join me?

[Blandmum]

Front page of the Times today listed some unsavory works, the most amusing of which is a book called

'Some Kinds of Women Who Will Go to Hell'

The first three sections listed would seem to be;-

1. The Grumbler ? the woman who complains against her husband every now and then is one of Hell.
2. The Woman Who Adorns Herself.
3. The Woman Who Apes Men, Tattoos, Cuts Hair Short and Alters Nature.

They have me bang to rights on all three.

So who is joining me then?

Good gravy, I'm hellbound. Who wrote that?

What? I would've never taken you for an ape-like man with short hair and tatoos! You always seem like such a nice girl

Every now and then?

As one of the comments in the Times said, maybe that particular book was written by some loser who can't understand why he doesn't have a girlfriend

Oh dear looks like fiery (sp) damnation for me too!

Damn, my secret life is out!

Somebody bonkers. It was found in a mosque in the bookshop. Mosque comittee franchised the bookshop rights and say the book doesn't represent their views.

These are quotes from books on sale at mosques in London, Manchester and High Wycombe, apparently .

Also advocated is the beheading of anyone who isn't quite islamic enough.

Aren't we supposed to have a law against that sort of thing?

I'm PMSL at the first one. Sheesh hell is going to me pack to the flaming gunnels then!

All of MN will be there!

law shmaw, I think laughing at the silly buggers is the best way to go about things.

Not the beheadings thing, that was rather nasty.

Oh deary, deary me. Well, I've done worse things that I'm content are worth being sent to hell, but adorning myself? And with tattooos, too. Oh, what news to get on a Tuesday.

Still, as long as they're just flogging the book and they don't believe what it says

I always knew that you were an old slapper Sue

I'll shift up, so that there is room for you on this penetential bench

Old? OLD? I'm 30 if I'm a day.

as long as we can go in a handcart
I've always wanted to go to hell in a handcart

the MN outing to hades

Is that Cod in the handcart?

deffo!

and had the devil got a red tail?

red tails are just so last millenium

i've just started on the road to becoming a christian again, and they're a lot more forgiving of tattoos and aping, i find so i don't reckon i need to worry.

i don't really adorn myself though, not enough hours in the day

but i do have a tattoo (foolish 18 yr old that i was) and i do tend to grumble a fair bit to dp (oh dear we're not even married] but i reckon god's a fairly liberal type, he must be to tolerate all the crazies claiming he's an extremist nutter all the time

the hell-bound ones look like they're having a bit of a giggle actually

A lot more women than men in hell, apparently. Is that because men framed that version of hell and they just really hate being out-numbered?

I want to come too. Sounds more fun than todays scheduled outing to buy new pants for everyone (where the buggery do they all go?)

And what about men who "adorn themselves"? Is that a ticket to Hades too?

PMSL. Ooh, can I come please? I definitely qualify (don't have any tattoos and often can't be arsed too busy aping the menfolk to do much adorning, but otherwise I'm in there.

Do we take turns being pushed in the cart? can we bring a bottle?

PMSL!

Oh, and men who adorn themselves? Blerghh! One of the top turn-offs. Right up there wth hairy backs. They can push off and find their own Hades - we got there first! (did Eve go to hel? Can't remember)

Sorry - did Eve go to Hell that should have read.
