Is Mark Twain Damned?

Letters from the Earth is a charming tale by Mark Twain. It's a quick read. Except for the introductory paragraph, it is all in the words of Satan, the angel, who has been sent by God to descend to Earth and observe humanity. Through this character, Twain was able to let loose his fierce wit upon the church and upon people in general. According to Satan, the angels are having sex all the time and partying. He points out the glaring contrast between this and the often boring routine of a Sunday mass or sermon. (The mass was only forty-five minutes tops. Some of those services, though, I've heard...) This means a lot of church goers are way off - and it isn't surprising when the odd one succumbs to drugs and the street life. Just don't read it out loud with a baseball cap on because some one might see you.
