These bits in the Apostles' Creed used to bother me when I went to church.
I believe in God the Father Almighty,
Maker of heaven and earth:
And in Jesus Christ his only Son our Lord,
Who was conceived by the Holy Ghost,
Born of the Virgin Mary,
Suffered under Pontius Pilate,
Was crucified, dead, and buried:
He descended into hell; ........................ that's harsh, where's it say that in the bible?
The third day he rose again from the dead;
He ascended into heaven,
And sitteth on the right hand of God the Father Almighty;
From thence he shall come to judge the quick and the dead.
I believe in the Holy Ghost;
The holy Catholick Church; .................. flipping do not, I thought that's what we didn't believe.
The Communion of Saints;
The Forgiveness of sins;
The Resurrection of the body, ..............always vague whether resurrection was physical or spiritual
And the Life everlasting. ....................... but did it start straight after death or after the 2nd coming?
Amen.

We had a Datsun bluebird estate.
Within 6 years it rusted so badly the bonnet had huge holes in it and all door sills had holes.
Cars of today still look new after 6 years.
I sold a 22 year old one without a spec of rust.

Some scientific ones:
- Why do hydrogen bonds exist, enabling water a liquid at earth temperatures, and isn't that handy?
- Why when they'd realised they'd made a mistake, didn't the scientific community reverse the direction of electric current to make electronics slightly easier to understand?

It hasn't bothered me for too long but on a programme about the Universe they said that the Universe is 14.7 billion years old and 90 something billion light years across.
How did those bits get to where they are in that time?

I can answer that part..........cos I'm dead dead clever like.
The word hell comes from the Hebrew/greek words hades & sheol...............these translate as 'the grave' or mankind's common grave. There is an old English phrase "helling the potatoes" which meant putting them in the ground.
So......when it says he went to hell---it meant he went into the grave.
Or so I was led to believe.

Answers:
A - Good marketing, and they were cheap.
B - Considering how much their leader enjoyed dressing up, perhaps they were actually the Rangers equivalent of a Royal Artillery Concert party and never saw front line duty?
