My youngest daughter was philosophising over life and death the other day.
"Is it true that good people go to Heaven when they die?" she asked me.
"It is", I answered.
"Is it true that bad people go to Hell when they die?" she asked me.
"It is", I answered.
"But Grandma says that she's old enough to know that there is something good and something bad in everyone", she said. "Where do they go?"
I didn't know what to answer. No one stays here forever, so they must have gone somewhere. Is there a place in between?
I told her that those who are mostly good go to Heaven, and those who are mostly bad go to Hell. She promised she would try her best to be mostly good.
So 49,5 per cent good, and you go to Hell. 50,5 per cent good, and you go to Heaven. What a difference one per cent makes.
