The only people who saw the train wreck were those desperatly trying to hold on to the idea that God is all loving. Why? you tell me, but I suspect that it might have something to do with a death bed confession.
An all loving God would be glad to take one offering a confession at any point in his life (even on his death bed.) But, a God offering a very specific type of love might not be so easily fooled into accepting someone trying to squease every ounce self serving pleasure to be found in this life, and then as if he had found some magic clause/loop hole could force God into an eternity of literal heaven... If this is not the case then what does it matter to one who says there is no God?
