Pass that Blowtorch

One thing that took me a long time to overcome was my fear of hell. My mother got me good with that one. One thing you can count on when you tell a trusting child that, if he does not behave, he will be burned and kept alive to feel the burning for ever, is that that child will think twice before misbehaving. His most dreaded nightmares will keep him in line. Side effects of this treatment might include gathering and growing shame and growing fear of punishment with every swear word uttered, every sexual thought, every failed test and so forth until the subject rests comfortably in a general state of depression. But in time we overcome our childhood fears. We develop and become more sophisticated. At least, I hope that's what happened in my case. Now I've turned it all around. I love fire. And of course Satan had nothing to do with it. It was Prometheus.
