Every woman sorting through produce in a market is looking for what’s as close to perfection as possible. Every man buying a barbeque is doing the same thing.

We spend much of our lives trying to find and procure the best value we can for the money we have available. Every purchase, therefore, is possibly perfection.

At any given time, only so many things are available for our consideration. At that time, we only have so much that we can afford to spend. We judge ourselves and each other on individual, and the cumulative amount of, such decisions.

A good shopper seeks perfection with every purchase.

We’re “pretty free” to join whatever religion we want.

If we’re choosing a religion that will force us to “get weird”, like some denominations, we will find that concerned friends and family members will pressure us to “stay away”. They know we have free will, and don’t want us to exercise it in such a way that we may be harmed. In that case, we may not feel as free.

On the other hand, many of us tend to encourage people to join religions in which we, ourselves, participate. “I have shopped around, and I have bought this religion.”, is what we’re saying, much the same way as, “After I shopped around, I bought a Toyota.”

Marketing experts know that shoppers who encourage others to buy products are some of their best salesmen. They try to get these experts on their side, and try to make information available to them so that good words about their goods and services can be easily spread.

Why do some people try to get others to do what they do? Right now, I’m trying, as are others, to convince readers to consider Catholic Fundamentalism. Why? In my case, Heaven Credits. I feel a need for lots of Heaven Credits.

Any time that we get a person to move a little closer to God, we get Heaven Credits. If we convince a person to select a religion that takes him farther from God, we lose Heaven Credits. So, evangelists have to be very careful not to lead anyone astray.

I haven’t been able to find a single flaw in Catholic Fundamentalism. I’m so wrapped up in it I may not be able to.

If there are any, I hope you find them. If you look for them, and don’t find any, I hope you’ll consider Catholic Fundamentalism. If you do, tell friends.

You may need Heaven Credits, too.
