Wouldn’t it sucked if you died and it turned out Jack Chick was God?

Wouldn’t it suck if Jack Chick died and it turned out _I_ was right?

Well… okay… it would suck for him.

Well, see-we’d all be in Hell, and like, we’re so smart, we’d outsmart Satan, and turn it into the Straight Dope Hell.

Thus creating:

“Wouldn’t it suck if…  
My ass hurts…”

Heh.
