Walking in the underground tunnel between Times Square and Port Authority, I overheard a conversation between a father and his young son as they passed a man handing out literature on the “hard facts” of heaven and hell:

Son: Daddy, what’s hell?

Father: Well, it’s a place where you kind of just sit in fire.

Sigh. Another missed teaching moment.
