David: I’m going to go to purgatory. Me: No you’re not! David: Yes I am, and it’s going to one giant poker game. But really if you win the game you go to hell, and I’ll try really hard to win but then I won’t because I stink, and then I’ll go to heaven! Me: … David: What? You don’t believe me? Why not?
