    St. Peter forgot to lock the gate

    "Eighty-nine percent in this ABC News poll believe in heaven, which is consistent with data going back 30 years. Among believers, 85 percent think they'll personally go there"

    OK, now where did those 4% go????

    With this kind of success rate, heaven should pretty much resemble your existing home, street, town, state, country, and world. Getting rid of those 4% troublemakers may not do the trick. As I read old prayer books from not so long ago, it is obvious that Catholics were not at all sure they were guaranteed anything but a lifelong struggle, and a final judgement. It appears the struggle and judgement is not a common worry anymore.
