Infernal criteria
The grandad has grounds for complaint, or so he thinks.
"I've been taking these bloody pills for ages and the other day I asked the doctor how long I'd have to keep taking them, and he says 'the rest of your life.'"
I digest this.
"That's not that long."
As the grandad mimes he's going to hit me, I wonder exactly what the criteria for damnation are: are our sins judged on quality or quantity?
