A Religious Acid Trip... "How Does An Expert View Heaven?"

The video below is like nothing I've ever seen. In the line of recently posting cultural relics this one might be the most bizarre, funny, intriguing, beautiful, entertaining, and yes, frightening of all things I've found. Watch it and share it with friends... as it is spread-worthy. Also, make sure you watch it all the way through... there is a treat towards the end in little Miss Evelyn Talbert's performance. Sit down. You are about to be rocketed into a land that smacks of that weird boat scene in the original "Willy Wonka" movie. "There's no knowing where we're rowing,
Or which way the river's flowing... Are the fires of Hell a-glowing, Is the grisly reaper mowing...?"

The more I watch this the more hilarious and terrifying it becomes. I was hesitant to even post this but there is something so strange and intriguing about the video that I believe deserves to be shared. Leave a comment and tell us your thoughts.

What does one do with a house that big?
Isn't it obvious?
You throw a big, sinful party!
One where husbands go without telling their wives and where everyone regresses in age until we all return to infants with 40's taped to our hands.

BOOM!

the expression on the little boy's face when little Miss Evelyn appeared also suggests he may have done so. Must we always make our point with fear and mansions?

Oh dear, it makes me want to drink the magic Kool-Aid and wait for a comet.

It's unfortunate really. Even the most intriguing and evocative messages can be tempered by driving home your point with a singing little person.

Is this clip from the 1987 Diane Keaton documentary called "Heaven"? That title at the beginning looks like those that she used throughout her film.

Thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you. For hope and love and all that crap, of course. And thank God for little people; they're not just for bowling anymore!
