1. I am so happy that someone has a direct line with Jesus Christ and
knows so well about his opinion towards modern backgammon. Also, I am
so grateful that this person is sharing Christ�s communicated opinion
with us mortals. Maybe that someone should use some of the
extra-terrestrial powers to predict next week�s lottery numbers. I
promise I�ll share, I�ll quit backgammon forever and I�ll make a
donation to the Church.

2. I am glad that the consequences of playing backgammon are related
to wandering to heaven or hell. I always thought hell is in my dice
cup when I roll an anti-joker, but no... Obviously I will encounter
many other fellow humans in hell. Maybe we can all have a nice
tournament over there, in a warm and cozy environment. And I can think
of a referee for the games. But silly me, he can�t interfere.. He is
tied and nailed to a cross....

3. What about the couple of billion others such as moslems, jews,
buddhists, atheists, etc? Are they allowed to play backgammon? And if
so, will we have the pleasure to welcome them in hell to make it an
equal opportunity tournament for all humans?

4. I deeply appreciate such postings for they make life really
amusing...
