    There is no stairway to Heaven. VH was told to sing that by Satan. Hell is probably an elevator platform and God can lift us up from it if He will.

    the only parts of that statement i believe are “stairway to heaven,” and i only believe that because i can prove beyond the shadow of a doubt that led zeppelin did exist and did, in fact, sing that song, which also, did exist. now, i think you’ll be seriously disappointed when you find that there’s no actual “heaven” at the top of your stairway to heaven. also, i believe in elevators. there is no elevator to hell. obviously.

    no silly you know that elevators are not evil but think about what it represents. everyone uses the elevator and it is faster. just like life, everyone wants to be on the same page, do the same things, and go the same way even if the “boarder way” is the worst way. and the stairs if you notice are rarely taken when next to and elevator why? because of the muscle movement and strength that it gives to your body but it takes longer time. so the “straight and narrow” doing things the lords way; is the stairway to heaven!
