A local Web site claims space is limited, but if you act now you can buy a reservation in heaven.
Reserveaspotinheaven.com is standing by to take your order. For just $12.79, Nate Davis and Edgar Kim are selling reservations in heaven.
"Why go to church when you can go to our Web site," Davis said. "Click, click, $12 and you're going up (to heaven)," he said.
And those reservations come with a money back guarantee.
"We're men of our word," Davis said.
"If you don't get there, you're going to get your money back," Kim added.
Without a reservation, the site warns heaven-hopefuls to expect long lines, thousands of steps on the stairway to heaven and haggling with St. Peter at the Pearly Gates.
But, there's more. If you opt for the all-access kit for $15.95, you also get access to the VIP areas in heaven. Who knew?
I took my findings to a church.
"You can't pay any price to go to Heaven," said churchgoer Jody Rodricks. "That's what I believe."
This is probably where we should tell Jody and you that Nate and Edgar are not serious. It's a gag gift.
"You gotta read the fine print, dude," Davis said.
The disclaimer tells the truth: It's a joke; they have no affiliation with heaven and can't make any guarantees.
But not everyone is laughing. The guys get regular hate mail.
And some in the church say hell is not a funny subject.
Pastor Wayne Taylor worries that some people so terrified of hell may take the site too seriously. But he also admits it's a good way to start talking about heaven before your time is up.
"We're not trying to offend anyone," Davis said. "It's all in good fun, we just want people to laugh about it."
The guys intentionally don't affiliate the site with any religion.
"It's just a gag gift; it's obvious," Davis said.
Even Pastor Wayne laughed about it.
"'We're not affiliated with heaven,'" Taylor laughed as he read the site. "I thought that was so funny."
Both Kim and Davis admit they created the site to make it rich, but it's not happening. They say it's just the first of their many Internet business projects.
Speaking of which, Davis and Kim have been warned by many 'there are eternal consequences' for their actions. So their newest Web site, Reserveaspotinhell.com, comes just in time. |
