Yep. It is just so hard to figure out how the whole underground, eternal amusement park is supposed to work. Are the employees unionized? Do they apply for their positions? Are there courses people should take in life to better prepare them? Theology is really, really hard.

We are studying Dante’s Divine Comedy in Theology class. Evidently Hell is pretty wild, with never a dull moment!

In junior college, long time ago, I took some course during which we read the Divine Comedy. Like a strange dream sequence.
