BH quiz #34

We lost. I feel quite demoralised. I will elaborate further tomorrow, but as I was leaving Paddington station, London celebrity and Oxford Street sight, the "Be a winner, not a sinner guy", gave me a chance at redemption. Apparently, you can make sure of plunging into the depths of hell by: "[Neglecting] making prepation for Heaven" and "[Trying] to get to Heaven by any other way than God's way". At low moments like this such emotional blackmail is likely to work. On the other hand, I'm sure being flippant about pamphlets handed to me by true believers should be added to their list. I'm also certain I would be drowned if there was another Flood tomorrow.

But going off metaphysical and corporeal matters, this quiz is inspired by the April issue of Word magazine. If you haven't guessed yet, it's what I read on the train journey back from our annihilation.
