“The plan was for Jesus to come to Earth two thousand years ago with a pocketful of miracles and souls for the people who were then alive. After his return to heaven from Earth he is going to build those mansions, come back before his generation dies out, finally put an end to the world which has been such a rotten disappointment, and deposit most of these souls in hell. No wonder heaven is only 12,000 furlongs wide, long, and high.” PeopleWorldYearsLongHas BeensTwoSoulEndsEarthDiesJesusHeavenWonderHellAlivePlansGenerationsAtheismReturnThousandYears AgoMiracleDisappointmentWideThousand YearsRottenMansionsDeposits Author:Ruth Hurmence Green

“This religion teaches that 6,000 years ago God made the first man out of dust - not even mud - and the first woman out of a bone; that God cursed the whole human race because a snake made the woman eat an apple; that God had a son by another man's wife, and that he had this son murdered in order to keep himself from sending all the human race to hell.” MenYearsFirstsHumansMadeWholeOrderRaceTeachHellWifeAtheismSonYears AgoBonesDustHuman RaceApplesMudSnakesAnother ManCursed Author:Charles Chilton Moore
