Is this the kid that made it up?


I read about some kid coming out and admitting he lied about going to heaven. Was this him?

reply

They're all made up, dude.

I realize that, but still wondering if this is the same kid that admitted it.

It's not.

That was Alex Malarkey not Colton Burpo.

Beans are evil. Bad, bad beans.

I still can't get over the coincidence of his name and his deed.

reply

I'm a Christian, but as a man with a sense of humor, I find irony in the fact that the kid who lied has a last name Malarkey, as in the American expression 'that's a lot of malarkey'

From reading the first chapters of the book this pile of garbage was based on the father was the one with an agenda.

Poor kid was just manipulated by his fundaloon dad.

You don't know that for sure. You only assume. But no one can know for sure what really happened. I believe it did happen.

No one can see God and live as it says in the Bible.

Do pastors ever teach about biblical contradictions? How about the PAGAN origins of Christmas and Easter? What about how the Gospels Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John were written decades after the events happened by UNKNOWN authors and that the names were pulled out of the air by early pastors and that we have no idea who really wrote them?

Or how about how no one believed "Jesus" was God until after the original apostles died?

No? Your pastor never mentioned this? He / she learned all of this in seminary school though
