The Tebow Family Tackles (sorry I couldn’t help it) the Super Bowl
In spite of all the snarling, whining, and threatening, CBS aired the ad sponsored by Focus on the Family featuring Pam (mother) and Tim (son) Tebow. Pam Tebow talked about her “miracle baby,” how hard it was, and how she still worried about “little [...]

It’s pretty clear everyone has an opinion about the afterlife. These opinions range from “there is none” to very elaborate envisioning of the future.
This is not always a favorite topic – especially if it seems very far off. If you are an atheist and to some degree an agnostic, this question causes little concern. Death [...]
